China Insights
Shanghai offers world-class orchestras, ballets, bands, musicals and DJs as well as traditional Chinese cultural performances and reminiscences of Shanghai’s “Golden Era” in the 1930s. With its crowded farmers’ street markets, ancient teahouses in traditional gardens, the stunning modern architecture, and a plethora of dining and drinking options and of course shopping at its best, Shanghai is a showcase of the multi faceted impact of China’s reform and development today.
The Institute runs a programme of Insight Evenings including one on Shanghai. If you would like to discover more about China’s largest economic and trade centre please contact us to arrange a briefing session on the city of Shanghai.
As well as providing briefings for visitor or businesses the Confucius Institute also offers translation services, regular language and cultural course and a broad range of events for the general public.
