Visiting Shanghai for a Few Days

Shanghai is one of the cities I am most familiar with as a travel destination. When I was a child, I used to visit here every summer vacation, and having grown up in this city, it feels far from unfamiliar to me. Shanghai cuisine tends to be on the sweeter side. You might have heard of dishes like Grandma's Braised Pork or Shengjian Bao (pan-fried buns), but one of my personal favorites is a cold dish made with lotus root. Popular attractions include The Bund, City God Temple, and Shanghai Disneyland. However, the suburbs of Shanghai also have their own unique charm, filled with a magical atmosphere. Whether it's architecture, nature, or art, the stories of people and events are an integral part of the experience. Perhaps you could explore Sichuan North Road or Pudong with your loved ones or family to discover what makes this grand city of Shanghai so special. I still cherish the rice cakes and Eight Treasures Rice lovingly prepared by my family. While they may not be considered luxurious dishes, the taste of home is something that can never be replaced.

Just wrapped up an epic escape to Shanghai and trust me—this city is an absolute vibe! 🌆✨ Between dazzling skylines and jaw-dropping history, Shanghai proves why it’s the ultimate blend of East meets West. Everything’s clean, modern, and super accessible, making exploring a breeze for first-timers and pro travelers alike. Top Spots to Visit in Shanghai 1. The Bund (Waitan) 🌃 You simply *cannot* skip this. The Bund serves up world-famous views of Shanghai’s futuristic skyline, and the riverside promenade is ideal for Insta-worthy evening strolls. Go after sunset when the Pudong skyscrapers light up for the best vibe. 2. Yuyuan Garden & Old City Step back centuries at Yuyuan—this stunning classical garden is surrounded by the bustling Old City. Wander traditional alleys, shop quirky souvenirs, and taste classic snacks (try xiaolongbao!) at the bazaar just outside the garden (No. 218 Anren St, open 8:45am–4:45pm). 3. Nanjing Road 🛍️ Shanghai’s glitzy pedestrian street is retail heaven—high-end shops, local brands, food everywhere. Pro tip: In the evening, the neon lights are next-level. Start snapping! 4. Xintiandi This walkable, car-free district oozes style—restored “shikumen” stone-gate houses mixed with hip cafés and lively nightlife. Getting Around 🚇 Metro is the GOAT here—cheap, clean, English signage everywhere. Grab a transport card at any station (refund it before you leave!). Eat This! Don’t leave without eating soup dumplings (xiaolongbao—try them in Yuyuan or Jia Jia Tang Bao), plus crispy shengjianbao at breakfast spots. Top Tips Shanghai is super safe, cashless payments are king (Alipay/WeChat Pay), and most sights take card. Weather? Bring a light rain jacket most months. #ShanghaiAdventures #TheBundViews #CityEscapes #EatYourWayShanghai #EastMeetsWest
