Shanghai has been called the Paris of the East, now they're saying it's China's New York. It's neither, it's unique. Shanghai is one of the world's great cities with an entertainment scene to match. Stylish restaurants, quality cuisine and a nightlife that's full of surprises.


Close to Renmin Square are some of the city's flagship arts venues. Shanghai Museum's collections are world class and the cafe and museum shop also warrant visits.


Multiplexes showing Chinese and international films are proving popular in Shanghai but you can still catch a movie at the 70 year old Cathay Cinema. The Lyceum Theater and the Majestic Theater also have live shows.
Galleries featuring avant-garde, traditional paintings and photography abound.

Shopping on Nanjing Road

For a taste of the highlife start your night out with cocktails in Cloud 9 on the 87th floor of the Grand Hyatt Shanghai. Later choose between live music in the Cotton Club, cozy kitsch at Bar 1931 or select one of 45 martinis in the gorgeous Goya.


Things are a little louder at Top of the World and Judy's Too or Goodfellas. For a touch of nostalgia try Face near
Maoming Road or head towards The Bund and the Peace Hotel Jazz Bar. Late night club choices include Babylon, Real Love, Rojam and PuJs.

At Shanghainese restaurants look out for local specialties - slow cooked pork (hui guo rou), dry sauteed string beans (gan bian si ji dou) or "lions head" meatballs (shizi tou). In the Fall try hairy crabs, a seasonal Shanghai delicacy.

Street food lovers wil be spoilt for choice and almost every street in the city center has cafes and restaurants selling great dumplings and Shanghai noodles.
