Walking tours proving a hit with locals, expats   2014-09-15

 

 

SHANGHAI is promoting several walking tours that are proving to be a great alternative to regular tours in exploring the beauty and culture of the city.

About 3,000 residents, tourists and expatriates yesterday participated in a travel program, one of the highlights of this year’s Shanghai Tourism Festival. There are six walking tours in five districts — Huangpu, Jing’an, Changning, Hongkou and Xuhui. The tours have different themes such as “A Stroll along the Suzhou Creek,” “A Meet with L.E. Hudec (a famous Hungarian architect)” and “A Dialogue with Eileen Chang (a renowned Shanghai author).” Participants cover 6.8 to 8 kilometers on foot, lasting between three to four hours.

Each tour is limited to 500 people.
