When you think of Shanghai, what would be the first thing that come to mind?
The Bund is by far the most famous attraction in Shanghai.
The landmark in the city is the rocket look alike Oriental Pearl TV Tower in Pudong Special.
The best way to check out both banks of the Huangpu River and their sights is to take the splendid Huangpu River Tour .
Nanjing Lu is the busiest shopping street in Shanghai.
The famous Peace Hotel and People's Square (Renmin Guang Chang) are the famous historical landmarks found in Shanghai.
Yu Yuan and Cheng Huang Miao are also not to be missed.
The temple, or Cheng Huang Miao, is only a short distance from Yu Yuan. It is a touristy but impressive warren of lanes and stalls. Once every city and large town possessed a temple to the town gods, but few have survived.
If you dont like fake goods and dont like to bargain then Nanjing Road is the best place to go for shopping.
I has department stores, specialty shops, exotic restaurants, theaters and cinemas lining up the street.
The 5-km-long Nanjing Road is the most sophisticated shopping and tourist complex in Shanghai.

i'm not surprised by your comment but to be honest, in most of the places, getting a taxi when you are a tourist can be a real bad experience but thanks anyway ;-)
shanghai is such an exciting city with the towers and nightlife!
Wo keneng yao qü Shanghai xia ge xia tian. Hai she keneng Taibei? Wo xiang qü yi ge you yi se de difang. Wo bu he pi jiu, he bu mai dong xi... Keneng a tour of the water towns, like you did. Beautiful page by the way.
Incredible photos to go along with great info. Thank you!
430km/h!?!?!?! WOW! What was it like? Quite amazing stuff. Gr8 photo of Oriental TV Tower too! Shintori Restaurant photo? What's that? Joe.
Your Shanghai page is absolutely captivating......the pictures and the comments.......esp about the juicy Xiao Bao ;D
very nice pictures...I really enjoyed,thanks for shareing...
thanks for this..i went to visit this resturant and the food is really delicious though it is abit hard to locate the place as it is found further inside a building but i will strongly recommend this restuarant too..really nice shanghainese food.. ;)
Along with Indian Uncle tried Shintori Japanese. We laughed that we ate decoration there - a huge ice with little noodle putting inside. Not really recommended for a real eater*_*
Bright, success, organization and some glamour, that is what you can find in Shanghai according to your words and marvelous images!
