Melissa and I are leaving on a train next Wednesday to spend our four-day long weekend there. We're starting to get pretty excited about it! Even though we're staying in China, we're looking forward to visiting a big city other than Beijing, and we're hoping to experience a mix of Chinese/Western culture. Plus, it'll be our first time traveling alone together since our road trips to PEI and Vermont!
So far, I've been told we should explore the French Concession and visit the aquarium. If you've been to Shanghai before, do you have any suggestions for us? Things to do? See? Eat?
P.S. Don't worry about Tony; he'll be in Thailand for a vacation with his co-workers!

ReplyDeleteIf you love shopping there are two great places. The antique market on Dongtai road and the Pearl City market on Hongmei road.
ReplyDeleteThere is also a great water town called Qibao.
Have fun! I loved Shanghai!
Thanks for the suggestions!
