The Shanghai Sightseeing Bus Center has released several new itineraries for the Spring Festival.

One trip proving particularly popular, officials said, was a one-day excursion to Haining, Zhejiang Province.

The 88-yuan (US$12) ticket includes sightseeing on ancient-Chinese style streets, participating in the ceremony of welcoming the God of Fortune, and watching the famous Haining sea tide.
