"Miss it,' they say, 'and it shall be a case of better luck next life.'
Astronomers are saying the longest total solar eclipse this century will take place on 22nd July and is expected to last well over six minutes. Although visible in most parts of Asia and the Pacific Ocean, it is believed the best �viewing gallery� is right here in Shanghai. Seizing the phenomena, Four Seasons in Shanghai have organized a trip of a lifetime that will send you to the moon, in every sense of the word.
Picture a luxed out journey to Hangzhou�s most famous landmark the West Lake � claimed to be the absolute prime viewing spot, travel in the cool comfort of a chauffeur-driven 5-series BMW, a picnic basket of all-natural and organic breakfast and fresh-pressed juices and a bottle of full-sized bubbly to toast the sighting thereafter. And because we figure you might be in the mood for a light snack or two on your way back to Shanghai, our maestro chef has decided to up the ante of your picnic basket with more food galore.
If you prefer to hang out right here in Shanghai and yet not miss this phenomenal passing, order up an all-natural and organic breakfast on the rooftop pool deck, then sit back, relax and enjoy the moment.
The �Moon Trek� rate at CNY4,000 per night for a premier room category is inclusive of limousine transfer to the lake side and picnic basket for 2. To book, log on www.fourseasons.com/shanghai or call your favorite travel consultant.
