Sheshan Catholic Church, also known as the Basilica of Our Lady of Sheshan, is a prominent pilgrimage site located atop Sheshan Mountain. The church is generally accessible, although reaching the summit involves a climb, with some steps. Solo visits are possible, but guided tours can provide deeper insights into the church's history and significance. The best time to visit is during the shoulder seasons (spring and autumn) to avoid extreme temperatures and crowds. Expect to spend around 2-3 hours exploring the basilica and surrounding area. There is usually a small entrance fee or donation requested. Be aware that during religious holidays, the area can become very crowded.
