East Meets West

Shanghai is where ancient meets modern and East meets West in China. In northwest Jiading, there are old temples and ancient walls from thousands of years ago. Down by city centre, the Bund offers French and British colonial style architecture one one side and views of futuristic skyscrapers one the other. The city offers museums and parks/gardens galore and of course, food from all over the world. Shanghai is massive (population over 29 million) and I can spend over four hours traveling from one end to another, but thankfully there is an expansive public transit system. Try to visit a few different neighborhoods (e.g. Huangpu, Xuhui, Pudong, Jiading, Songjiang, Fengxian) as they all have very different attractions to offer.
