I would like to visit Shanghai and Beijing from Hangzhou some time next year. Would 6 days be enough for the whole trip. What would be the best time to visit these places and will someone kind enough to provide some tips to places of interest and the mode of transport to go around.
6 days is OK.

Enough time? From beijingholidays.net, I read some articlets and copy some itineries. Hope it can help you. You might even take ‘Z’ serials overnight train Shanghai to Beijing, to save one night accommodation.
