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😚😚

In fact , admission is FOC if you plan to just walk , eat and chill there , can avoid buying tickets . Fruit juice and dumplings is nice . It may be too commercialized as Ancient Town but nearest from Shanghai City Center .Written November 13, 2024This review is the subjective opinion of a Tripadvisor member and not of Tripadvisor LLC.

- Zfy EdSingapore, Singapore10,719 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.

It's a working temple so as you tour round you will see people praying to Buddha and burning incense.Written October 11, 2024This review is the subjective opinion of a Tripadvisor member and not of Tripadvisor LLC.

- Peter Jackson1 contributionA lot of things changed during COVID-19 Pandemic, but not the extraordinary service provided by Heping Fandian's team! 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.

- ClementineBoston, MA176 contributionsThe underground is convenient. In the People's Square you can see a variety of landmarks, walking in the garden-style square is very comfortable, there is a green space in the square to raise a lot of peace pigeons, natural harmony, or quite interesting.Written November 15, 2024This review is the subjective opinion of a Tripadvisor member and not of Tripadvisor LLC.

- Jo-AnnKuala Lumpur, Malaysia17,186 contributionsThe largest slaughterhouse in Shanghai back in the 1930s. Today it is a shopping complex with boutiques, restaurants, dance studios, etc. If it is completely occupied, it would be a place to chill. Now I believe people go there for photography as the structure of this building is unique and original. Take Line 4 to Hailun station. Exit 2 into Hailun Road then turn right into Shajing Rd. This interesting building will be right in front of you!Written May 10, 2021This review is the subjective opinion of a Tripadvisor member and not of Tripadvisor LLC.

- Jo-AnnKuala Lumpur, Malaysia17,186 contributionsWe did not go in for tea. Was just outside the tea house admiring its menu and was really walking through while enjoying the lanterns. Not really interested in expensive tea at that time!!! However, this tea house looks really charming and its entrance is quite welcoming with an array of tea cups and tea sets to be admired and purchased.Written February 9, 2021This review is the subjective opinion of a Tripadvisor member and not of Tripadvisor LLC.

- Karen CLondon, UK44 contributionsNow a boutique hotel but very welcoming when we popped in to look at the architecture. We sat in the conservatory and enjoyed a cold drink and plate of fruit before walking around the garden. A vista of another era.Written September 9, 2015This review is the subjective opinion of a Tripadvisor member and not of Tripadvisor LLC. Tripadvisor performs checks on reviews.

- Erico2709Singapore, Singapore2,496 contributionsThe performance (Era2 Spirit of Shanghai) was excellent and seating was nice. The most expensive was at RMB800+ but we got the RMB580 tickets which was quite good as it is. Our hotel concierge helped us to book. Only regret the show as only 60 mins so would have been better if it was slightly longer.Written April 28, 2024This review is the subjective opinion of a Tripadvisor member and not of Tripadvisor LLC.

- Joseph vShanghai, China47 contributionsLovely old style house. Worth the 20kuai entry fee. Plenty of English, Chinese, Korean, and Japanese explanations. Enter through the house, then go into a large garden with explanations for why the owner had built each piece of the structures, pavilions, etc. lovely quiet garden when I went. Loved the explanations of the buildings, and the attention to detail the owner had put into it. Very picturesque, natural, and a great look into a Chinese old style house.Written January 17, 2020This review is the subjective opinion of a Tripadvisor member and not of Tripadvisor LLC.

So the temple is just a landmark place for me to locate the dumpling shop and you may take a look and say hi to this temple when goes byWritten July 31, 2019This review is the subjective opinion of a Tripadvisor member and not of Tripadvisor LLC.

- J TeoKuala Lumpur, Malaysia2,443 contributionsNext door to the Customs House is the former HSBC Bank building. Many may not be aware that HSBC stands for the Hong Kong and Shanghai Bank. Established in 1864 in Hong Kong and then 1865 in Shanghai it is by far the most important bank in this part of the world and housed in its own heritage building. Interesting side note, HSBC is actually the issuer of actual currency in Hong Kong.Written January 1, 2018This review is the subjective opinion of a Tripadvisor member and not of Tripadvisor LLC.
