A City Walk to Remember Shang Hai

This summer, I set out to explore Shanghai not by car or metro, but step by step — chasing its stories through three unforgettable stops: Wukang Road, the Oriental Pearl Tower, and Disneyland. My day began on Wukang Road, where history lives in every brick. The air smelled of old trees and fresh pastries. I wandered past Art Deco buildings, their balconies tangled with vines, and old cafés where time seemed to pause. There was something romantic about how quietly elegant this street felt — like Shanghai whispering its past through every detail. Locals strolled with dogs, lovers held hands, and I simply let the morning sun guide my pace. From there, I took a slow journey to the Oriental Pearl Tower — a symbol of how far this city has come. Standing beneath its towering spheres, I looked up at the future. The view from the top was surreal: the whole city stretched like a puzzle of history and innovation. The wind hit my face on the glass deck, and for a moment, I felt like I could touch the sky. But the child in me saved the best for last: Shanghai Disneyland. As night fell, I entered a world of color, music, and pure magic. I screamed on roller coasters, danced to familiar songs under neon lights, and let myself believe in fairytales again. Fireworks exploded above the castle — a grand finale not just to the day, but to a summer adventure I’ll never forget. Three places. Three moods. One city. Shanghai, thank you for the wonder — step by step. #travel #citywalk #shanghai #disneyland
