Top neighborhoods in Shanghai

The North Bund

The North Bund mixes Shanghai's old-world charm with its ambitious future along the Huangpu River. Stroll the waterfront promenade for jaw-dropping views of Pudong's skyline that'll make your Instagram followers jealous. History buffs can explore the art deco Broadway Mansions and the former Japanese Consulate while photographers capture the perfect sunset over the water. Don't miss the moving exhibits at the Shanghai Jewish Refugees Museum. Getting around is a breeze with three metro stations connecting you to the city's best spots. After dark, sip cocktails at sleek rooftop bars with million-dollar views. High-end hotels and serviced apartments cater to comfort-seekers, though budget travelers might want to stay elsewhere and just visit for the spectacular riverfront experience.

Lujiazui

Lujiazui's sky-scraping financial district is where Shanghai flexes its futuristic muscles. The iconic Oriental Pearl Tower glows against a backdrop of glass giants like Shanghai Tower and Jin Mao Tower. Take a breather at Lujiazui Central Green Space or snap those classic skyline shots along the riverside promenade with views of the historic Bund across the water. Dining options range from Michelin-starred restaurants in luxury hotels to international cuisine in gleaming malls like IFC and Super Brand. Getting around is a breeze with multiple metro stations and elevated walkways connecting major buildings. Most visitors stay in upscale business hotels with river views and executive perks.

Xintiandi

Xintiandi blends Shanghai's past and present through beautifully preserved Shikumen stone-gate houses now filled with upscale shops and art galleries. Pedestrian-only streets invite leisurely exploration between boutiques, while the Shikumen Open House Museum offers glimpses into traditional Shanghai life. Tree-lined walkways connect stylish rooftop terraces where you can people-watch above the fashionable crowds below. Dining options range from Michelin-starred restaurants to trendy cocktail bars, with most venues requiring reservations. Luxury boutique hotels occupy renovated historic buildings throughout the area. The nearby Taipingqiao Park provides a green escape, and Metro Lines 1 and 10 make getting around the city a breeze.

Downtown Shanghai

Downtown Shanghai dazzles with its perfect split personality. The historic Bund waterfront flaunts colonial grandeur while facing off against Pudong's futuristic skyline across the Huangpu River. Stroll the riverside promenade for jaw-dropping views or explore traditional temples tucked between modern skyscrapers. The neighborhood buzzes with energy from dawn till well after dark. From upscale international cuisine to authentic xiaolongbao dumplings, the food scene caters to all tastes. Luxury hotels and boutiques line Nanjing Road's bustling pedestrian mall. Getting around is a breeze with multiple metro stations and the scenic Puxi Tram connecting major attractions.

Pudong

Home to iconic skyscrapers like the Oriental Pearl Tower and the Shanghai Tower, this district boasts the Lujiazui Finance and Trade Zone and Shanghai Disney Resort. Easily accessible via multiple metro lines, bridges, and tunnels.
