Shanghai, a bustling metropolis on China's eastern coast, is a city where tradition meets modernity in the most spectacular way. Towering skyscrapers like the iconic Shanghai Tower and the Oriental Pearl TV Tower dominate the skyline, reflecting the city's rapid development and futuristic vision. Yet, you will still find pockets of history and culture, such as the serene Yu Garden with its classical Chinese architecture and tranquil ponds. The Bund, a waterfront promenade, offers stunning views of the Huangpu River and the contrasting architectural styles of colonial era buildings and modern high rises. Shanghai's streets are alive with the aroma of delicious street food, the buzz of markets, and the rhythm of its dynamic nightlife. This city is a melting pot of cultures, where East truly meets West, creating an atmosphere that is both exhilarating and enchanting.

Our Shanghai Marathon 4-night Entry and Accommodation Package offers deluxe, 4-star accommodation close to the race start at the Bund (1km), right in the vibrant heart of the city. Join our tour of iconic landmarks such as the Shanghai Tower and Yu Gardens well as a visit the Expo to pick up your race number. Enjoy a pre-race Pasta dinner on Saturday evening.
