What are good travel destinations for a 5 day weekend in Shanghai?

I recently relocated to Shanghai and have a 5 day weekend coming up. I'd like to hop on a few trains and travel to some nice places near-ish to Shanghai over the five days. To save money I'd like to refrain from plane rides if possible. Please advise :)What are good travel destinations for a 5 day weekend in Shanghai?Shanghai: 10 Things to Do in 24 Hours

Anywhere over there.What are good travel destinations for a 5 day weekend in Shanghai?go to hangzhou, nanjing, suzhou, zhouzhaung. . .

in hangzhou you can visit west lake. it's really cool. around west lake are many other sites that are worth visiting. that whole area is very easy to get around in so it wouldn't be a problem going from one place to another.



suzhou has many gardens, unfortunately those are the only things worth seeing in this city. inside the gardens and other site are quite beautiful but once you leave the city, from my experience, is not that interesting.



nanjing is a very interesting city. it is similar to beijing because of it's long history. it's a nice city, modern looking, like beijing. so much to do there. you can visit "purple mountain" and there is so much to do on and around this mountain (sort of like the things you can do on and around west lake in hangzhou).



you could also visit zhouzhuang, which is a small watertown near suzhou. that's it. it's a tourist city.



out of these 4 cities i would visit nanjing for 3 days and hanzhou for 3 days as well, suzhou and zhouzhaung for only 1 day each.



here are some photos from my trips to these cities.
