Step back in time at the Old Bund (Laowaitan), where the architectural legacy of Ningbo's cosmopolitan past comes alive. English, French, German, and Dutch-style buildings evoke memories of the 1930s and 1940s in this once-bustling international hub. Today, the area offers a variety of evening venues, many of which operate primarily during the summer months.

Named during the Tang Dynasty when Taoism was at its peak, Laoshan is one of those places that is as much about the views as it is about the history. The area is dotted with iconic sites like Laoshan Jufeng Peak, Liuqing River, Taiping Palace, Yangkou Beach, and the Nine Waters and Eighteen Pools — each offering a different slice of the region’s natural beauty. From rugged mountain peaks to serene beaches, Laoshan's landscapes are a traveller’s dream. If you're planning to explore, there are a few routes to choose from. The southern route covers the towering Jufeng Peak and the peaceful Taiping Palace. The eastern route takes you to Yangkou Beach and the Qipan Stone Area, while the central route is all about the lush Nine Waters and Eighteen Pools.

Step back in time in Shipuzhen, a charming village with over 600 years of history, perched on a hillside overlooking the sea. Constructed on a hill with one side open to the sea, the village wall traces the mountainside, winding up and down. Near the port, a whole street of seafood restaurants awaits, offering the freshest seafood and the most authentic Ningbo dishes.

Sainte-Anne is one of Guadeloupe's top tourist destinations, easily reachable from Pointe-a-Pitre, on the southern coast of Grande-Terre. The village dates back to the 17th century and boasts one of the most fantastic beaches in all of Guadeloupe, lined by a welcoming promenade. You can find the remains of old sugar mills in the area, as well as some great dining and shopping opportunities.
