Local authorities have announced five new routes, starting this National Day holiday weekend, for people to experience the beauty of Shanghai's "five new cities" while also learning about their histories and cultures.
The routes are the most recent themed activities in a program for locals to study culture and humanity. The program was initiated in 2018 by the Shanghai Education Commission and the city's spiritual civilization office.
The routes will have 27 stops and will take in the five new cities of Jiading, Qingpu, Songjiang, and Fengxian districts, as well as Nanhui in the Pudong New Area. Visitors can enjoy the distinctive landscapes and culture, while getting a good look at the growth prospects.
