Shanghai City Guide

Paris of the Orient: that's what they called Shanghai in the past, when it was still the leading power in trade and opium. Enter the communist revolution, which swept Shanghai into anonymity. Nonetheless, some traces of old can be found in present Shanghai. Today, Shanghai is the commercial center of China and has one of the most dynamic skylines in the world. The 17-million-citizen-strong city shows her dualistic face in every corner of the city.

Shanghai Bars & Cocktail Lounges
Pearl of the Orient and Whore of the East, Shanghai has been dragged through an incredibly chequered past of invasions and occupations. This created a wild city of opium dens, underground gambling joints, brothels, gangsters and decadence, all brought to an abrupt end by the suffocating grip of Communist rule in the late 1940s. But, Shanghai is staggering from the shadows once more. The honorary capital of China has that old glint in her eye again. To get a flavor of the city take a Huangpu river trip for great views of the Bund, which was Shanghai's thriving Wall Street in the 30's, or visit the lively Frenchtown area for great food, shopping and nightlife. The stunning Shanghai Museum and incredible, gravity-defying Huzhou Pagoda, which beats the tower of Pisa in the leaning stakes, are also well worth a visit.

Shanghai Subway Map
