Xu Jin brought us around to the Watertown and arranged for a stay in an authentic old inn. It was a wonderful stay and we enjoyed the 1 day and 1 night stay tremendously.

I regular visit Shanghai for my business. For the little free time I have I hired Xu Jin to show me the nice places of Shanghai. In one of the tours she took me to Zhujiajiao watertown and Jade Buddha temple. Two wonderful places quiet and peaceful. It is as if you step back in time. Jin knows her way around and can give at lot of backgrounds. Jade Buddha Temple is also nice to visit. If you are interested in Buddhism Jin can give you lot of information. It was a wel spend day.
