General Tips: Shanghai's Evening
  • Tip Rating:

  • Fondest Memory: Shanghai's evening is incredible. This pic was taken from City Apartment, so the road there is Yan'An Rd - it is leading to the direction of the Bund. When the evening came, I could stand in the bacolny for hours just enjoying the beautiful night scene in front of me.

    General Tips: The Traffic is heavy here
  • Tip Rating:

  • Fondest Memory: This isn't my fondest memory. The traffic is so heavy here, which usually causes me quite a lot of stress. It is almost impossible to see the street scene like in some European country where there's no traffic at all during the day time. I am often quite scared on the road outside. And Shanghai cab drivers can be quite "crazy" sometimes.

    General Tips: Bridge over Yangzi River
  • Tip Rating:

  • Fondest Memory: This is the bridge I took everytime when I went to/got back from the airport in Pudong (PVG). When the weather is clear, you can see very gorgeous scene along the Yang zi river. Get your camera ready then.

    General Tips: Environment
  • Tip Rating:
  • Favorite Thing: The condition of environment is getting better and better in Shanghai. Even though the air quality still isn't so good compared to some European cities, it is better than some other big cities in China I've been to, such as Beijing.

    Urban plantings are more and more seen in the city, which really lights up the city.

    Fondest Memory: When I leave Shanghai, I would never forget these beautiful flowers I can see almost everywhere in this city.

    General Tips: Pudong airport
  • Tip Rating:

  • Fondest Memory: If you arrive at or leave from Pudong airport (PVG), take some time to enjoy this airport. It is one of my favourite airports I've ever been to. Its French design is just fantastic!
