Avoid restaurants on the Bund, walk two blocks inland for real prices and better food, locals queue late at night for gems.
Not as friendly as I hoped, scammers on the tourist strip and cold winters made it less fun for me.
Buy a Shanghai Public Transport card at the airport, reloadable and saves time, much cheaper than single tickets for multiple days.
Three days felt rushed, four to five is ideal if you want museums, day trips and some late nights.
Shanghai blew me away, neon skyline at night is unreal, food is incredible but expect crowds and humid summers.
