Good morning, ladies and gentlemen. Did you sleep last night? Great. Im sorry, the baggage was delayed last night. As the baggage car broke down, we had to ask for another one. By the way, have you opened your luggage? No wonder its sunny outside. Our tour guide often said, "the guests brought the sunshine in the bag.". I thank you for that. Good well. I have announced the schedule for breakfast. Today we will go to the old city of the sea, that is, the location of the Yu Garden and the Yu Garden mall.
Our car is driving in the Bund. Your left is the famous Huangpu river. Well be here later.
In order to save time, I would like to talk about Chinese gardens and Yu Garden before I get to Yu Garden.
In China, gardens are pided into three major categories: Royal Gardens, private gardens and temple gardens. Yu Garden belongs to private gardens. Chinese gardens have many skills, such as borrowing scenery, blocking scenery and so on. But they are all made up of four basic factors. These four factors are water, plants, buildings and rockery. Most of the private gardens are in the south of the Yangtze River, just because there are many water sources and stones suitable for making rockery. Yu Garden is the Ming dynasty built more than 400 years ago. The owner surnamed pan, is a senior official. He built this garden to please his parents and make them enjoy their old age. Therefore, the word "Yu" of Yu Garden takes its meaning of "Yue Yue". Its a pity that his parents could see Yu Garden fall and die. At the end of the Qing Dynasty, the pan family was weak and its descendants sold the garden to the local guild. There is another reason why Yu Garden is famous. In 1853, a sword Club uprising broke out in Shanghai, and a hall was used as the headquarters. Today, Yu Garden is a must go place. So I suggest that there we must not become separated, the best you closely, okay?
Here is the parking lot. If someone here, please remember the bus number three last number is 121. I think its best not to happen. I will be holding a small red flag, all of you will accompany Mr. Zhang dianhou. Are you ready yet? Lets hit the road. Please pay attention to your bike when you get off.
Ladies and gentlemen, this is the famous jiuquqiao. Why is nine? Because it is the highest number of yang. Walk on the bridge and stay long. You can also enjoy the scenery from different angles. Also, it is said that ghosts can only walk in a straight line, so you dont have to worry about ghosts.
In the middle of the bridge, there is a pavilion, built in the Qing Dynasty, about 80 years ago, was converted into a teahouse. The old people like to come here in the morning, meet friends, make a pot of tea and chat. Generally they drink a green tea called Longjing. This teahouse is also the place where foreign leaders often come. For example, in 1986, Queen Elizabeth II of England came to Shanghai, also went to the teahouse to drink tea.
Indeed, it is also a pleasure to have a pot here. Imagine, on a summer day, when you come to the teahouse and sit by the window, overlooking the green pond full of lotus flowers. A cool breeze blew in the face. In the elegant Jiangnan Silk sound, you lift the teapot, slowly sipping lukewarm Longjing green tea. If you feel floating losses.
Would you like to have a pot? Sorry, I still cant let you go. Will it be OK for us to make a decision after we finish Yu Garden?
This is the entrance to the Yu Garden. When you walk into a private garden, the sight of what things are always blocked, sometimes is a rockery, sometimes this Su zhaobi. This is a garden skill, called "barrier landscape". Dont let you know one day, but let you see a part, and then achieve the effect of moving scenery.
This hall is called mount Du hall. As you all know, Shanghai is located in an alluvial plain, with no mountains or forests. So this mountain refers to the rockery opposite. It is 12 meters tall and weighs 80 tons. It has been a miracle in the past and even today. Because more than 400 years ago, no cement and plaster, people use cooked glutinous rice, add alum and lime, the stones together. So far safe. See the pavilion on the top of the mountain? Four hundred years ago, it was the highest point in Shanghai. From there you can see the Huangpu River on the fishing boat, sails, but these can only see in movies today. You can only see the top of their heads up. For the winding paths are covered with trees and stones. This is really the masterpiece of Zhang Nanyang, a gardener. It is also recognized as the best local rockery.
After the rockery, there is a dragon wall. This is a characteristic of this garden. There are five dragon walls in all. This way, Im going to take you to a place where you can see another dragon wall clearly.
Ladies and gentlemen, this is the dragon wall I just mentioned. Dragons are actually imaginary animals. We call ourselves the descendants of the dragon. I wonder if you have read Pearl Bucks Dragon seed. If youve seen it, a lot of things are familiar to you here. Look at the dragon. Youll see its a complex of many kinds of animals. You see, it looks like cattle, eyes like shrimp, horns, I do not look like cattle. We usually say a deer, a snake, a scaly fish, a claw like chicken or an eagle. Please tell me, how many toes do you se
e?. Three pairs. But the dragon should have five toes. Why three? Theres a story. Previously, only emperors and royals were equipped with dragon designs. Pan Yunduan, the gardener, used the dragon as a wall. He was ambitious. Somehow, when the emperor learned of the matter, he sent for an investigation. When Pan Yunduan heard of it, he immediately knocked two toes. The delay officers arrived, master said: look, this is not long, only three. It is a wise man, otherwise he would be killed.
You said you wanted to take a picture. I think its the best place for the dragon wall. Let me shoot for you. Dont forget to say "Cheese".

Dear friends,now we enter Huaqiao toll station, it marks that we begin to enter Shanghai. It's strange why we always add the word "big" in front of Shanghai because it is the largest city in the world in terms of scale, area and population. Even Istanbul in Turkey can't be compared with Shanghai. When we come to this city, we can see Shanghai style, modern rendering, traffic and people everywhere, foreigners everywhere. Therefore, Mark Hughes, a famous American traveler, said that "coming to Shanghai is like coming to the West.". Indeed, Shanghai, a metropolis, gives people the impression that it is a very westernized city.
So how big is Shanghai? Let's analyze it from three aspects. First, it has many cars. It is estimated that the number of vehicles in Shanghai is the largest in the world. There are more than 48000 taxis in Shanghai alone, ranking the first in the world. Second, there are many people. Shanghai has a permanent resident population of about 12 million, not counting immigrants. Its total population is about 30 million. The population density is about 20000 per square kilometer. If you come here on holiday, especially in several major business districts, you should say, "look at your mouth and look at your legs.". Finally, louduo. What impressed us most when we came to Shanghai is, wow, what a tall building! It seems that we have entered a city like a concrete forest. Shanghai has developed rapidly in recent years. High rise buildings have sprung up like bamboo shoots after rain. There are 1026 high-rise buildings with more than 30 floors in Puxi, Shanghai alone. Let's see if it's very powerful. What's the actual area of Shanghai? It's more than 9000 square kilometers. Through the above groups of figures, do you feel that it is big? I don't think I need to say more.
If the speed of Shanghai's development can be described as a miracle, I don't think it's too much. But if we go to read its history, I think it is a dwarf of history, not even the history of the United States. Why do you say that? Because the history of Shanghai started in 1843, and no one paid attention to it before that. In the course of Chinese history, there is no place for it at all. But in a short period of one and a half centuries, it has created a myth, a miracle like a gold pagoda. Don't worry. Listen to me. A long time ago, in the Song Dynasty, the most powerful historical stage in China, Shanghai was just a small fishing village. Local residents are mainly fishing. Later, with the development of trade, the small fishing village became lively. At that time, there were 18 Dapu, including Shanghai and xiahaipu. Later, people's trade center was mainly concentrated in Shanghai puzhuli, so more and more people called it Shanghai. During the reign of Daoguang in the Qing Dynasty, Huating county was officially renamed Shanghai, which is still called today. In 1840, the British launched the first war, which lasted two years. Finally, the Qing government and the British government signed the Nanjing Treaty, the first unequal treaty in Chinese history. In the treaty, Shanghai, Guangzhou and other places were forced to open up as trading ports, and Hong Kong Island was ceded to Britain. In June 1843, the gate of Shanghai was officially forced to open. It is precisely because of such a treaty that Shanghai has really got rid of the shackles of history and started its legendary career as a machine. In this way, Shanghai came into our sight.
With the passive development of Shanghai, it is no longer a small town forgotten by Chinese feudal government, but a paradise for foreigners and adventurers. Soon, Shanghai was pided up by the United States, Britain and France, forming a unique "concession" in world history. In fact, it is a country within a country. Then where were the concessions of the three countries located in today's Shanghai? The British concession was the largest and most developed area in Shanghai. It was located in the south of Suzhou River, east of Jing'an Temple and north of yangjinbang (today's Yan'an Road). North of China's city (Town God's Temple) is a French concession, and Hebei's east part of Hebei is the site of the Americans. Later, the Ministry of industry set up a public concession, which is today Zhongshan Park area. I'm afraid the term concession can't be found in the whole world. It is a manifestation of China's backwardness and being beaten. It was not until the middle of the Second World War and after the Cairo conference that the national government officially abolished all foreign privileges in China. The concession disappeared completely in the territory of China. However, its legacy has become the witness of the development of Shanghai today, and the valuable architectural heritage left by Shanghai today to the later Shanghainese, the Bund complex.

Hello everyone,Ah, the breeze is so comfortable on my face. Do you know what the smell is? Guess, the smell of grass and peach blossom are all right. They are all the smell of Shanghai and the foreign atmosphere of Shanghai. You know more or less. Stories and legends about Shanghai, celebrities, TV and movies, cultural relics and historic sites, in everyone's mind, the image of Shanghai is just like Cheung's cheongsam in the mood for love, with different customs.
Now I will describe this kind of Cheongsam in my heart!
Shanghai has a quality that no city can match, that is, its "foreign style". Since 1843, the imperialist powers have settled in Shanghai, which has formed its characteristics of embracing all rivers and blending Chinese and Western cultures. We will never forget it, In the golden autumn of 2001, the heads of state in Tang costume attended the APEC meeting held in Shanghai. Why can't they forget? What attracts everyone's attention is not only the Tang costume made of high-quality Jiangnan Silk, but also because Shanghai has become an international economic, financial and trade center and a large port city in the new century.
In twenty-first Century, Shanghai showed a scene of prosperity and openness. The buildings on the Oriental Pearl TV Tower, Jinmao Tower, Shanghai International Conference Center and Pudong International Airport are the most common buildings on TV. They are the decorations of Shanghai, such as Maggie Cheung's pearl necklace and eardrop, and the more elegant women always need decorations. So, the bustling Shanghai needs to be prosperous again. It takes these buildings to decorate them to make them attractive. Some people say that the culture of 2000 years has come to Xi'an, that of 500 years to Beijing, and that of nearly 100 years to Shanghai. To describe the development of Shanghai in terms of vicissitudes and rapid changes, do you have any opinions? What was Shanghai like a long time ago?
As early as the spring and Autumn period and the Warring States period, Shanghai first belonged to Wu, then to Yue, and then to Chu. At that time, Huang Xie, a great general of the state of Chu, made great contributions in harnessing the river course and was granted the title of Marquis of Chunshen, so Shanghai was referred to as "Shen" for short. In 223 BC, after Qin destroyed Chu, Qin Shihuang led Prime Minister Lisi and his black sheep, Qin II, to visit the south. They saw that Shanghai was rich in products, prosperous in trade, and prosperous in population. However, people were only trading on ships, and had not yet formed a city. At that time, most residents in Wusongkou area of Shanghai made a living by fishing. Clever fishermen invented a bamboo fishing tool "Hu". How to describe it? Bamboo or wooden sticks were woven together to form a square or circular shape. When the tide was high, the fish would be thrown into the "Hu". When the tide was low, the fish could only look at the ocean and sigh. It was a bit like inviting the king into the urn, so the fishermen would take advantage of the fishing When the tide was low, I went inside to pick up fish. I think Shanghainese may be the descendants of farmers waiting for a rabbit. I'm sorry to make a joke. Later, Shanghai was referred to as "Hu" for this reason, but why did they add three points of water? People all over the world know that "Hu" is a small fishing village and a big market town after the "households" of waterfront people fishing. At that time, there were 18 trading ports, including Shanghai port and xiahaipu port. In the late Northern Song Dynasty, as the Songjiang River became shallower, Shanghai beach was formed from the Bund to Shiliupu today. Ships on the sea from Shanghai to the east of the old city, so "Shanghai" has become the name of a city. We all know that "Shanghai" is evolved from "Shanghai Pu". There is a saying that both positive and negative readings are the same: Shanghai tap water comes from the sea. Read it.
After the Opium War, Nanjing Treaty, the first unequal treaty in Chinese history, came into being. Shanghai was forced to open up as a trading port by foreign colonialists, and foreign powers set up concessions in Shanghai one after another. From then on, Shanghai became the "cradle of adventurers" of foreign invaders for more than a century. It was not until after the victory of the Anti Japanese war in 1945 that the concession was taken back by the people. On May 28, 1949, the Shanghai Municipal People's government was established. Today, Shanghai has become an international metropolis with prosperous economy and advanced science and education.
This metropolis is 6341 square kilometers, registered residence about 16000000, and the urban population density is more than 20 thousand people per square kilometer. It's really crowded. Huangpu river pides Shanghai into two parts of Pudong and Puxi. Pudong New Area is a region that has been developing since 90s of last century. We will enjoy her beautiful scenery in the evening.
Why not see it in the daytime? In the daytime, Shanghai is just high-rise buildings, countless traffic lights, endless flow of cars, and bustling crowds. What it brings us is a hard and distant feeling. There is such a saying, rain West Lake, fog Chongqing, night Shanghai, night Shanghai, Zhou Xuan's song, Zhao Wei's cover in the deep rain --- night Shanghai, night Shanghai!
Of course, how to look at Shanghai this night? The learned can be said to be "looking at the mountains horizontally and forming peaks on the side, with different heights and distances.". So, in order to help you appreciate the charm of Shanghai in an all-round way, we can look up, look up and look down on Shanghai from three perspectives.
Looking at the sea: we can take the luxury cruise ship near the Bund of Shanghai, visit the international architecture Expo in Pudong, and see the Jinmao pearl Conference Center on the other side of the bank from a distance, so as to record the brilliance of Shanghai in our eyes and cameras.
Lu Kan: our good driver will take you around the city to see the people's Square in the night, Shanghai Opera House, Nanjing Road, the first street in China, and Hengshan Road, the new commercial street, for a close look at all kinds of Shanghai's customs.
Empty look: of course, to the 88th sightseeing floor of Jinmao building, let's talk about a little story about Jinmao. About the declaration of Guinness century records, Jinmao building is the first in China and the fourth tallest in the world. It's tower shaped, some like the little wild goose pagoda in Xi'an. The total cost is 1.5 times of the total cost of Nanpu Yangpu and Mingzhu, which is 420.5 meters high. At home and abroad, there are three climbing enthusiasts climbing to the top of Jinmao, and there is a fourth Jiangxi young man. At four o'clock in the night, he began to climb abruptly. When he reached the 87th floor, he was exhausted. At 7:10, he was "carried" down by the high crane.
It's so dangerous. He doesn't know what to expect. Even monkeys can't help it. At this time, you may think, the tour guide let us go to Jinmao to enjoy the beautiful scenery, do you also want us to climb the stairs? No, everyone's safety is my safety, we can get to the 88th floor of 340 meters in 45 seconds, because we are taking the fastest and safest elevator in the world. When we get there, it can be said that "we will climb to the top of the mountain and see all the mountains". A panoramic view of Shanghai. At this time, you will sigh that Shanghai is so beautiful. Shanghai is like Maggie Cheung in evening dress. The lights are like her shawl made of gems. Eh, is it Li Xiang who gave it to her? There are so many Li Xiang's family. Alas, hearing is truth, seeing is emptiness. What's the matter.

Zhujiajiao ancient town is located in the central and southern part of Qingpu District, Shanghai. It is close to Dianshan Lake scenic spot in the East and Daying in the west, bordering on the ring city; it is close to Dianshan Lake in the west, facing Daguanyuan scenic spot across the sea; it is adjacent to Shenxiang town in the South; and it is adjacent to Diandong, Kunshan City, Jiangsu Province in the north. Zhujiajiao ancient town is 48 kilometers away from the center of Shanghai, and national highway 318 runs through the town. With convenient transportation and elegant environment, it is a typical land of fish and rice in the south of the Yangtze River and the most complete historical and cultural ancient town in Shanghai.
Entering Zhujiajiao ancient town, we first arrived at Tai'an bridge. Tai'an bridge is very beautiful. It is said to symbolize the peace of the country and the people. As long as people stand on the bridge for a short time, they can ensure the safety and good luck of the year. Walking on the stone path, you can see many zongzi shops, all called "grandma zongzi shop". As you can imagine, it must be the rice dumplings made by Grandma! There are also delicious rice and pork, braised pork wrapped with rice dumplings leaves, and then rice is ed. It's fat but not greasy. It makes people drool and can't help but want to have a bite! Walking, we come to the five hole stone arch bridge --- Fangsheng bridge. Many people buy small goldfish, turtles and other aquatic animals, and then put them down from the bridge, which is called releasing. Therefore, the name of the bridge became the free bridge. Looking at the clear lake water under the bridge, I can't help thinking of taking a boat. So we took a boat to enjoy the beautiful scenery of Zhujiajiao ancient town. I realized that Zhujiajiao ancient town is like a beautiful picture.
Unconsciously, the sun has set on the top of the mountain. The old man of time slipped away quietly and left us the night. We left Zhujiajiao ancient town reluctantly.
The ancient town of Zhujiajiao is enchanted by the beauty of water, the ancient bridge, the strange street, the secluded lane and the essence of garden. It's hard to say how wonderful it is if it's not in the right place. Without stepping on the old stone street, exploring the deep alleys and alleys, walking on the arched stone bridge, or taking a small boat, how can you feel the feeling of "a boat going up in the water, a man swimming in the painting"？
