In the early Shanghai silent fishing village, but today it is a popular tourist destination with historical sites such as Bund, City God Temple, Yu Garden, Lujiazui skyline, Shanghai Museum and the China Art Museum. But while monuments of Shanghai directed definitely to the future, you will still have the splendor of the past in the Art Deco and French colonial Bund Boulevards. Green heart of Shanghai is a popular place where the Shanghai Museum with the form of the cave shows exceptional Chinese bronzes, ceramics and silk as well as numerous photos. Shopping in Shanghai would not be the same without being a neon light Nanjing Lu, of the three-kilometer-long strip with street performers, beautiful shopping malls and traditional stores is. Also in "French Concession" the streets are filled with luxury boutiques, antiques and cafés. One of our short and kinky advice is to mix with stylishly dressed locals and enjoy building Chinese Opera near Kun Opera.
