Expo at your own pace for the day. The theme of this
year’s expo is “Better city-better life”. In terms
of gross numbers, this year’s expo is expected to be
the most visited in its history. The Shanghai Expo
features the participation of over 190 countries.
There are five central theme pavilions exploring
different aspects of urban life: Urban Footprints,
Urban Planet, Urban Dwellers, Urban Beings, and
Urban Dreams.
The Urban Footprints pavilion portrays the growth of
cities as a decisive factor for human progress over
the ages. The Urban Planet pavilion, located in the
expo’s central exhibition building, addresses the
complex processes marking urbanization. The Urban
Dwellers pavilion showcases six families and how
they relate to a city’s sustainable development. The
Urban Beings pavilion examines the growth of modern
infrastructure of modern cities, presenting the
perplexing networks of both traffic and of water
energy supply as core elements in the urban
“organism”. The Urban Dreams pavilion involves an
imagined voyage into the future adopting an
optimistic view of opportunities for developing
hospitable cities via a combination of technological
progress and tradition.
Your guide will pick you up from the expo site late
in the afternoon, returning you to your hotel. The
evening is up to your discretion. |
Day 3: Mt. Huangshan (B, L, D)
After breakfast in the hotel, we
will drive to Yellow Mountain, the premier sight of
Mt. Huangshan. With a height of 1873 meters (6145
feet), is the highest peak of the Mt. Huangshan
Scenic Area. At present over 500 kinds of animals
and 1500 kinds of plants live on the Huangshan
Mountains. UNESCO listed Yellow Mountain as one of
the World Natural Heritage sites in 1990. In order
to get up the mountain, we’ll take the cable car,
which is included in the price of your tour.
While on Yellow Mountain, we will see some curious
sights, such as the Strange Pines, which re seen in
every corner of Yellow Mountain. You will be amazed
by their vitality and strength. The seeds fall into
the crevices where they take root and grow with
great vigor. The uneven terrain prevents the pines
from growing upright. Instead they become crooked
and even downward. Another feature of Huangshan
pines is that many trees grow branches on one side
only. Some notable ones that we will see include the
Guest-Greeting Pine (in front of the stone lion of
the Jade Screen Pavilion in the Jade Screen Scenic
Area), and the Guest-Goodbye Pine (to the right of
the Jade Screen Pavilion).
We’ll also come across the Jade Screen Scenic Area,
and this scenic area has Jade Screen Pavilion as its
center and the Lotus Peak and the Heavenly Capital
Peak as the main body. This is the Front Mountain as
people usually call it. Along the road you will find
Peng Lai Three Islands, 100-step Scaling Ladder, the
Thread of the Sky and the New Thread of the Sky.
"Splendid is the landscape", handwritings by
Chairman Mao Ze Dong, are inscribed on the Jade
Screen Peak.
We’ll on the peaks of Yellow Mountain, we’ll see the
numerous seas and mists of clouds that hover around
the mountain. At sunset, the glistening clouds
assume every hue from red to purple. You cannot help
marveling at this gift from the Creator! You will be
struck by the beauty when all the red leaves are
floating on the white clouds in autumn, when the
clouds gush between the peaks like a raging river
while the red leaves flutter delicately in the
breeze.
After the sunset, we’ll drive back to Huangshan city
where we will spend the night night in the same
hotel as the evening before.
