Moganshan is a retreat hotspot for many Shanghainese who are looking for a tranquil respite from the hustle and bustle of Shanghai. A three hour drive from Shanghai takes you up to the mountains where there are dense bamboo forests and hundreds of charming villas awaiting you. It resembles a paradise. Many famous people such as Mao Zedong and Chiang Kai-shek had stayed here previously. A weekend trip to the mountains will get you recharged and ready to conquer all challenges coming your way the following week.
