At the forefront of China's modernization is Shanghai and this has made it one of the country's most popular tourist destinations as well. Located on the eastern coast of mainland China, Shanghai has long been one of China's most prominent trade and financial centers. Shanghai is home to not one, but two large international airports, Hongqiao International and Pudong International. Both offer flight service to North American destinations, as well as worldwide connections. Upon arriving, the two most visited districts are the Old City and Pudong. The Old City is located inside the ancient walled city of Shanghai and illustrates classical Chinese architecture. The Temple of the Town Gods, the original Old City Wall and the Jin Qu Qiao Bridge are just a few of the fabulous sites to be seen within the city walls. In contrast, Pudong showcases Shanghai's modern side, with fantastic shopping opportunities and some of the most modern skyscrapers in the world.
