CITS SHANGHAI - SHANGHAI ZHONGGUO GUOJI LUXINGSHE

Read: State travel agencies (CITS) simply sell airline tickets, train tickets or boats or circuits.

They do not correspond to the western concept of the National Tourism Office, since they do not provide any practical information about the country. For long distance journeys, book at least three days in advance.

Shanghai Tourism Offices distribute city plans, a fairly comprehensive tourist documentation: sites to visit, bus excursions, useful addresses, underground plans, list of hotels and restaurants. These information centres are spread across the city. In addition to Shanghai Station (No. 1 south exit), Renmin Square metro station, and the Arrivée and Pudong airports, districts also have their own antenna.
