Cheng Huangmiao Li Yonghe Hotel, is a traditional and ancient Kong has been the age of the small restaurant, the door is full of large wine altar, specializing in yellow wine, three yuan a big bowl, eight varieties, each with their own special features, a few dollars for the small dishes, such as dried beans, fennel beans, small dates, peanuts, all kinds of brine, wooden tables and chairs, long benches, the doorway of the wine flag! The company's website is a very nostalgic one," he said.
The charcoal grill, which is now very popular in Shanghai, is actually a very sophisticated barbecue. Personally, I think it's too expensive, so I'd recommend buying a loaf of bread before you try it, lest you get too full.
Huangpi South Road, Xintiandi's Western-style food, buffet is only 56 yuan a, the environment can be comparable to any of Shenzhen's Western-style restaurant, not to mention the very continental style, it is recommended that you do not drink only drinks, because a cup of drink is also to be 20-30, it is too uneconomical
True pot cafe, in every subway station and the busy commercial streets can be seen, originating from Japan, more than the Shenzhen The famous classic has characteristics, coffee varieties of flowers and practices are very good, the price is also moderate, said to be bigger than the Starbucks market
Entertainment
Bars: are said to be very characteristic of Shanghai's bars, how I do not feel, or because of the mood? There's a famous bar in Changfeng Park, the birthplace of many urban stories, but I've never been there, so I guess it's good.
The ARK, a Japanese music restaurant in Xintiandi, invites bands from Japan to perform every week. Unfortunately, I didn't run into any Japanese bands when I was there, and there's no place for a person to sit alone, and the upcoming Chinese New Year is making people impatient.
The Shaw House in Xintiandi, where I spent the afternoon watching a self-organized street-dance show, with soaring youth, brilliant colors, and youthful smiles, was very, very sensational, something you don't see in Shenzhen, so why don't we dance?
Hengshan Road TRUE LOVE, BOBAN STREET, in Shanghai enjoys a reputation, popularity is extremely prosperous, I went in to wander around, although the style of the bar and Shenzhen is not the same, but it is still too noisy, a bit of a nightclub style, I think I must be old, can not be disturbed. Instead, next to these two bars, there is an inconspicuous small bar, transparent glass door, the ghost of the candlelight, and a good name "70 years back in time".
KTV: Take the subway to the Stadium station and you'll see a big neon sign that says, "TUNEWORLD.
Total is a very formal KTV, there is no DJ and other characters, the songs are relatively new, audio-visual equipment is very good, are a single room, in the hall to provide a buffet, 28 yuan per person, the room according to the hourly billing of the different time slots, my friends and I played with three people in the inside of the 4 hours, plus the buffet is less than 300 yuan, but where to go on the buffet must be purchased, according to the head of counting, it is recommended that dinner and singing together to save time, and to save time, and to save time. We recommend dinner and singing together to save time and money.
Stage play: Shanghai's stage play is very famous, but the price is not cheap, many bookstores are selling tickets on behalf of the specific program a weekly magazine, the cheapest 80 yuan, expensive 200, providing boxes, really rotten! I have not been able to go, very regrettable.
There are also poetry sessions, various exhibitions, you can choose from a wide range of
Leisure: Yundu Hot Springs, there are three branches in Shanghai. It is open from 10am to 8am the next day. Yun Du hot springs to provide a shower, hot springs, a variety of massages (in addition to self-pay), free movies, billiards, table tennis, fitness, the second floor of the snack city to provide a variety of food and at a fair price. Usually after the shower and hot springs, you will be issued a set of uniform clothing, a bit like kimono, and then you can comfortably eat, watch a movie, snack city are collapsed rice seats, Shanghai people are simply too good to enjoy life. I went to the Lujiazui branch, it was already 12 o'clock late at night when I got out of the Golden Trade Center, I took a cab without jumping the meter. Across the street from the Yundu Hot Spring there are small stores that will sell you tickets for 30 RMB each. Since it's 50 RMB for one person and 28 RMB for a group ticket, the owner of the small store buys them and then wholesales them to make a 2 RMB handling fee and everyone is happy. Highly recommend my trip, because after soaking in the hot springs can be overnight there, sleep until the next morning before 12:00, only with another 20 yuan, sleeping place environment is very good, you can also bring this headset to watch the projection, is very corrupt and save money, you think about it, I live in the hostel is not more than 50 yuan ah!
Book bar: most of the book bars in Shanghai are very meticulous, because the tablecloths, lights, flowers, curtains, so everything makes you feel very warm and cozy, this kind of book bar in Hengshan Road and Huaihai Road are there.
Shopping: Shanghai's Xujiahui Center, Pacific Department Store, Xuhui Plaza, Oriental Mansion, you can find a lot of things in the Oriental Mansion, where there are boutique products from all over the world, the price is not expensive but has a collector's value, because a lot of things are limited to the global sale, showing the style of petty capitalism.
Huaihai Road shopping street, all kinds of brands of fashion
Nanjing Road Pedestrian Street, I think it sucks, I didn't even finish it.
South Maoming Road, the foreign trade market, said there are a lot of Tang clothing stores, as well as water goods and good quality of the world's famous brands, some brands in the big shopping malls can not be seen, a lot of foreigners go to, I wandered around the neighborhood, the crowd is very strong.
Ikea Home Furnishings, though, you can't move back to Shenzhen
--The Most Recommended Places
Golden Trade Center, which was love at first sight from the first moment I saw it in Newsweek. On the 88th floor of the Golden Mansion is a lounge with the name Nine Heavens, which is also the highest floor of the Golden Mansion Hotel. The minimum spending for one person is 95 dollars plus 15% service charge. If you visit the 89th floor, there is nothing there and it costs 50 RMB, so it is advisable to go to the Golden Trade Hotel, a lot of things are an experience, and for me, there is no greater happiness than going to my favorite place to go, have a cup of coffee, and eat an ice-cream. In Shanghai, this is my favorite night, sitting alone in the highest place in the city, looking at the river across the river of lights, I did not go to the Bund, I stubbornly think that the Bund belongs to the lover, but the glass window outside the Bund is not noisy at all, quiet and peaceful, fairy tale-like beauty, that night, Shanghai is under a gentle mist, the Nine Heavens of the music such as the rain gently described, I asked for an ice cream for myself, it has a nice name "Ice and Fire Nine Heavens".
--Transportation: Shanghai's transportation is very convenient, I only talk about the subway here, the subway has 3 lines, 3 lines between the transfer station place, the people's square, the train station, it is recommended that you take the subway throughout the whole of Shanghai, convenient, anywhere can be to, turn the subway is not charged, for example, you bought a 2 yuan card to sit on the 1 line to the people's square to turn the 2 line subway, 2 line subway from the people's square Line 2 subway from People's Square you can also ride another 2 yuan, more than 2 yuan, in the exit to make up the ticket. Don't try to buy many subway tickets at once, because each ticket shows which station it is issued from, so take the subway once and buy one ticket at a time. There are many bookstores at the subway stations which are not bad, and buying phone cards at the subway stations usually gives you a discount of 60-70%.
Taxis can be discounted after 11pm, usually 20% off, it's up to you guys to go lower.
--Tourism: Shanghai Tourism Distribution Center, there are self-guided tour tickets to various places and tour packages to Shanghai attractions, take the subway and get off at the stadium.
--The Bund is the iconic landscape of Shanghai
The Bund is most beautiful in the early morning, when the sunlight pours onto the Bund from the east, the Bund complex is illuminated in gold, the mist drifts on the Huangpu River, the Lujiazui complex on the opposite bank accompanies the rising sun, and the people on the embankment are practicing morning exercises to the sound of the Customs bells, which makes for an excellent view.
--Walking around Chenghuangmiao to get a sense of old Shanghai
Chengghuangmiao, a Taoist temple, is home to Yuyuan Garden and Yuyuan Mall, and is the most popular place in Shanghai. It is famous for its snacks, such as the Nanxiang Steamed Bun Shop, which is often overcrowded, but is not crowded before 8 o'clock.
Yuyuan Garden opens at 8:15, just after breakfast into the garden tour, Yuyuan Garden is the city's only ancient garden, the garden scenery is not thrilling, but the photo effect is very good, not many tourists before 9 o'clock you can do as you wish to shoot a few more it.
--Shopping on Huaihai Road
If you have a long-cherished dream of shopping in Shanghai, we suggest you go to Huaihai Road. Although Huaihai Road is not as famous as Nanjing Road, the shopping environment, product grade and fashion index are higher than Nanjing Road. Most of the businesses there are open between 10am and 10pm.
Huangpu River Cruise
-There are two options: the river cruise and the water bus, both of which board at the south end of the Bund. You can also take the City Ferry, which is now mainly used by cyclists to cross the river, for 50 cents, and you can go back and forth several times as long as you don't get off the boat.
Go to Zhapu Road or Huanghe Road for lunch
These are two of Shanghai's premier food streets, lined with restaurants vying for attention. Because the lunch market is usually 20% off, we recommend you to go there at noon to taste the sea food, which is about 80 RMB per capita. Also: Shanghai cuisine is the Shanghai cuisine that draws on the characteristics of many cuisines without knowing what they are.
--People's Square is the center of Shanghai
People's Square, southeast and west of the three are the City Planning Museum, Museum and the Grand Theatre, a 100 yuan joint ticket to visit these three places, a careful visit to at least 4 hours. If you don't have enough time, you'll have to look at the square pigeons. You can buy a small bag of corn for 2 yuan and throw it on the ground, which will attract a lot of pigeons.
--The square has a subway station underneath, and 2 subways cross here. There are also 2 large underground shopping malls selling mainly low-grade but edgy clothing, perfect for students.
Walking Nanjing Road
--Nanjing Road is a pedestrian street, but there are also long battery-operated trolleys that you can buy tickets for, so it's a good way to rest your feet. The neon lights on Nanjing Road are still bright at night, but it's not quite the same as Shanghai's best sights. There is a subway station at each end of Nanjing Road Pedestrian Street, from which you can take the subway to Lujiazui in Pudong for further sightseeing.
Tourist hotspot Lujiazui
--Lujiazui is on the opposite side of the Bund, and you can get there by subway. But there is no subway station on the Bund, and the only way to get there is to go under the river via a sightseeing tunnel, and the fare is not bandit.
--Lujiazui most notable is the Oriental Pearl Tower and the 88-story Jinmao Tower, as long as the weather is clear, day or night you can choose one of the heights to see the day or night view of Shanghai, the minimum ticket price of 50 yuan. For the same amount of money, you can also go up to the lounge on the 87th floor of the Jinmao Tower, ask for a cup of coffee, sit in the window seat (preferably non-smoking, where the view is the best location) while watching the scenery and enjoying the service of a 6-star hotel.
--South of the Oriental Pearl Tower is Shanghai's largest shopping mall, Zhengda Plaza, and the Lujiazui Food City, where some of Shanghai's most famous restaurants have branches.
The north side of the Oriental Pearl Tower is the International Convention Center, and further north there is a seagull-like restaurant called Seagull Boat, which sits right on the river and occupies the best spot on the Huangpu River, but it's hard to sit in a riverfront seat during meals.
About 700 meters east of the Oriental Pearl Tower is the central green space, often overlooked by tourists. But it is preferred by Shanghainese as a location for wedding photos.
-West of the Oriental Pearl Tower, about 700 meters, is along the Huangpu River Riverside Boulevard, the best time to go there from 7:00 p.m. to 9:00 p.m., because at this time the opposite bank of the Bund just happened to be fully lit, is the best choice to enjoy the night view of the river.
Century Boulevard and Century Square
Pudong's Century Boulevard is a landscaped boulevard, 4 kilometers long, connecting Lujiazui and Century Square, with four metro stops along the way***, but it's still good for sightseeing or taking the bus.
--Century Plaza is the largest square in Shanghai, below the square is the subway station on Yang Gaonan Road, the south is the Science and Technology Museum, the east has a walking path to Century Park, strolling in the middle of which there is a feeling of paradise on earth.
--Shanghai's nightlife
There are two recommended places to go, one is to go to Xintiandi on Taicang Road, which has retained the old Shanghai atmosphere, but is also very fashionable. The other is to go to Hengshan Road for a bar, a 2-kilometer-long stretch of road filled with continental flavors.
