Shanghai in 48+ hours

In a nutshell, it was a jam packed 48+ hours of walking, drinking, partying and eating. I managed to check out:

- Yu Garden
- The bund skyline
- French Quarters (so good I had to go twice) - most notably Wulumuqi Road, Anfu Road, Wukang road and more!
- Xintiandi and Tianzifang
- INS (building with like 6 floors of different clubs- very young crowd but you don’t feel it!)
- 158 Sunken Square - area with restaurants and gay clubs

Shanghai is crazy but doable. The people are nice, the food is great and I swear, I have never felt so safe.

The only two comments I have are: 1) do not go in the height of summer (I went in September and it was still super hot + the occasional freak weather) and 2) be prepared to see tripods and camera stands and photos being taken in every tourist spot.. it’s CRAZY. 🙃😍#travel #shanghai #urcove #hyatthotel #filipina #thingstodo
