Those looking for a refreshing spring getaway should consider Sheshan National Tourist Resort in Shanghai.

Chenshan Botanical Garden

Filled to the brim with various blooming flowers, Chenshan Botanical Garden is a must-see in the resort.

It is home to nearly 1,000 cherry trees of more than 60 varieties from the Netherlands, Germany, Japan and other countries, not the least of which is the Kawazu-zakura from Japan.

Deep Pit Hotel

It is a wonderful choice for families looking to explore the InterContinental Shanghai Wonderland, or Tianma Pit Hotel, the world's first underground hotel built on the site of an abandoned quarry.

The hotel stretches 88 meters underground and was listed as one of the architectural wonders of the world by the National Geographic Channel.

Visitors will marvel at the hotel's design and feel like children again in the tree house inhabited by elves.
