— Place — high-end eating and drinking. The right place to cheat yourself that somehow you get in touch with an old Shanghai atmosphere. Well, get real — you are definitely not. The place isn't old (buildings were rebuild quite recently — google it by yourself), and there isn't much Shanghai — locals don't go there much — why would... More

This place makes you feel as if you are in Old Shanghai. This place is good for an evening walk and rest place. There are many restaurants to eat and enjoy the evening. Also there are some places around which are of historical importance. More

This place was built especially for foreigners. The prices of goods sold here are high compared to other local restaurants and bars. This is one of those places that locals never go to. There isn't much Chinese culture here. Just a place for fancy upper middle class foreigners to feel like they are back in the big cities and cafes... More

Upscale cafes, bars, restaurants of all cuisines available here. Pretty nice pavements and trees planted in this area. Good to take a stroll here as the streets are so clean and neat and new... feels almost like you are in a European country. Traffic is also less chaotic here. I came here at night and it was a very lively... More

Xintiandi is a great little pedestrianised area full of bars, restaurants and also some little shops. It's great when the sun is shinning as there is a lot of outdoor seating outside the little restaurants. The Luna bar is really good for a late night drink, they have live music on. There's also a great restaurant called Wu Tong Ju... More
