- HatyaimanBangkok, Thailand2,107 contributionsIf you are looking for nice place to take a picture Landmark of Shanghai, this is a place.
Easy to reach from subway station of East Nanjing.
Mood and Tone of visit in daytime and night time is much different. Night Time, in my sense, is preferred.
You may feel familiar with this place from a few Chinese movies for sure.

I can get a stunning panoramic view of the entire city. I had dinner at the Oriental Pearl Sky Revolving Restaurant – it’s a lovely place.I can enjoy delicious food while soaking in the amazing views😚😚

Before, they are like many old town in China, very commercial and shops sell same stuff which were boring.
Now, it's clean, many varieties. Not only traditional thing but modern stuff that can blend into the environment. Most important is coffee shop!
Can easily spend 2-3hours there.Written March 2, 2025This review is the subjective opinion of a Tripadvisor member and not of Tripadvisor LLC.

Here you can find stores like H&M and many other western brands. You can also find domestic shops, selling just about anything. Great street to people watch. Beware of the people asking you to buy watches and bags as these are very cheap imitationsWritten January 13, 2025This review is the subjective opinion of a Tripadvisor member and not of Tripadvisor LLC.

- Zfy EdSingapore, Singapore10,978 contributionsTianzifang is one of the popular tourist destinations in Shanghai for shopping and experiencing local culture and lifestyle. It is located in the old French concession area. The area has mainly retained the "authentic and original" feeling because it has not been reconstructed or rebuilt. Instead visitors will get to see buildings, shophouses, alleys and streets of the old French concession area with Chinese "culture".
It has now become famous as a "rabbit warren" of arts and crafts shops, with restaurants, bars, cafes, souvenir and boutique shops etc. It has become touristy but still a good place to have a feel of the local touch.
I enjoy walking around in the small lanes around the old ancient buildings with beautiful decorations as it is quite difficult to find them these days due to the city redevelopment!Written June 25, 2024This review is the subjective opinion of a Tripadvisor member and not of Tripadvisor LLC.

- asthecrowsfly2Melbourne, Australia229 contributionsWe visited here in August 2019 on a tour. Although we were only here for a couple of hours, it was no where near enough time to get through all the shops and food stalls and sights. August is a very busy time and there were many many people everywhere. The architecture was wonderful, and so much to see. Definitely worth the visit. Leave yourself enough time.Written June 13, 2020This review is the subjective opinion of a Tripadvisor member and not of Tripadvisor LLC. Tripadvisor performs checks on reviews.
- Ronald LDenver, CO3,147 contributionsThis temple complex is noted for its jade Buddha statues imported from Myanmar. We were only expecting a couple of statues but this complex had a dozen different status including three reclined Buddhas and the Jade Buddha, which you were not allowed to photograph.

- HatyaimanBangkok, Thailand2,107 contributionsAs one of Shanghai Tourist attractions, this is a-must visit.
It costs 50 yuan person. Q line for payment by Alipay and Wechat Pay is different.
Temple is historic place surrounding with high-rised buildings.
There are a lot of local and foreigner tourists at this place.
As one of landmarks in Shanghai, you should visit this place anyway.
Location is heart of downtown as easy to reach by subway Jing An station.

My husband and I had pre-booked the Skywalk, after some confused faces of staff who didn’t quite understand what we were showing them on the phone finally someone understood and we were give priority access in to the lift and were up within minutes.
The viewing area is very spacious with lots of angles to get some decent pictures, we didn’t have the most clear day which was a shame but it was good enough. There are places to get snacks and souvenirs as well.
Then came the Skywalk, the two members of staff didn’t speak any English (not their fault of course) but it made communication difficult and they already didn’t appear to be in the best of moods. The experience itself was fantastic and something I would definitely recommend to others, being able to lean over the edge, have a bit of fun and sit enjoying the view with the wind in your face was thrilling. The only down side is the camera they use to take your pictures isn’t the best quality so it looks almost like you have been photoshopped in to the view.Written December 23, 2024This review is the subjective opinion of a Tripadvisor member and not of Tripadvisor LLC.

Heping Hotel has been my favorite hotel in China since 2018. I met Zoey, their talented and excellent front desk operator who helped me a lot during my stay. China is changing rapidly since last I was there. Zoey was kind and informative. She made my visit in China much more easier. The room she gave me have impeccable street view. It always makes me want to extend my stay.Written June 27, 2023This review is the subjective opinion of a Tripadvisor member and not of Tripadvisor LLC. Tripadvisor performs checks on reviews.
