Shanghai seamlessly marries its historic roots with a futuristic skyline, showcasing a city that is both timeless and cutting-edge. Stroll through the ancient Yu Garden, where traditional Chinese architecture intertwines with blooming flora, providing a serene escape from the bustling urban landscape. Marvel at the juxtaposition of the historic Old City and the futuristic skyscrapers of Pudong, each telling a tale of Shanghai’s evolution through time.
Renowned as the “Museum of Buildings,” The Bund stands as a testament to Shanghai’s international past.

This new route would bring new momentum to the aviation industry of Nepal and contribute towards transforming the country from land-locked to land-linked.
This development not only enhances connectivity but also exemplifies the commitment to strengthening the bonds between Nepal and China. The tourism and trade potential between the two nations is immense, and this flight service will undoubtedly play a pivotal role in realizing that potential.
