The Zootopia zone is a special feature of Disneyland because it is only here. It is the only one in the world. Magnificence 10/10 The park has created the Zootopia land in a magnificent way. Because of its magnificence, it is very popular with many people. It is a ride with the longest queue. The line is very long. You should choose this zone first.

Toy Story fans are very excited about this. Every area of Toy Story Land is decorated as if we have entered the movie. It can be said that anyone who loves Buzz Lightyear, Woody, Bo Peep, and other toys will definitely shed tears. Disneyland really did it. The Toy Story Land zone is very large. There are many photo spots. It is decorated in a cowboy style and there are various characters all over the area. Since this zone is popular, it is always crowded. For the rides: The queue is quite long. The scariness of the rides is 4/10. Children can play. The fun is 10/10. We went at almost 11 am and met Woody and Bo Peep. But the queue for taking pictures was very long.

I was really overwhelmed by the magnificence of Shanghai. My feeling is that looking at Shanghai with my own eyes is wow, no pictures or videos can fully describe the beauty of this city. Shanghai's wharf at night is lit up to the ceiling, I wonder how much electricity people spend on this city :)))) Malls and tall buildings with Western architecture are everywhere. Shanghai doesn't have peach blossoms like Tianjin, but people plant many small flower bushes of all colors on the side of the road. Areas like Wukang have green old trees, making walking extremely pleasant. Tan Thien Dia area has many supercars and handsome men and women (To be honest, I only met them here, I haven't seen anyone like them on Douyin in other provinces 🤣) The prices in Shanghai are also the highest among the places I've been to in China. Every store is luxurious and classy, the decor concept is magnificent, to take pictures and check in, I probably won't be able to finish it all year! When visiting places like landmarks, there will definitely be Chinese magicians with instant photo-taking, color-correction, and virtual-magic PTS services at prices ranging from 10 yuan to 30 yuan/photo. The type of photography here is at a level =)))) Try taking a photo once and you'll be addicted, even though it's expensive, but still have a lot of faith in the magicians' profession! 😏 The power bank rental is also great, everywhere there's a yellow box that you can scan the code to rent a charger by the hour. At first, I didn't know what it was, but then I was enlightened and from then on, we traveled all over China without having to carry a power bank, making our pockets heavier! The food is delicious, all the specialties are delicious, the problem is that Chinese food is greasy so it's easy to get bored, by the 3rd day I lost all enthusiasm for food 🤣 But here, it's different from Vietnam, if you want to eat delicious food, you have to find a chain restaurant or one in a mall. There's no street food that's easy to buy like back home. There are only a few milk tea brands. Before I went, I thought there would be tons of milk tea brands here, but when I came here, if there's no Chagee, there's only Heytea. I haven't even seen Mixue in Shanghai. #awesomepic

Under the lights of Shanghai's skyscrapers, there are many mysterious stories that have been passed down from generation to generation. Let's read and see if there are any creepy places in Shanghai that you know or have been to. Don't forget to use your discretion when reading. 1️⃣🚪Wukang Building (Pictures 1-2) Many people may have seen this building in Shanghai travel posts often. Its unusual European-style shape is one reason why many Chinese sisters stand and take pictures with this building. But do you know that this building has a creepy story hidden in it? During the Cultural Revolution, many people jumped from this building, so the locals started calling it a "springboard". One of them was a famous actress who many people said could still smell her perfume through the door of an abandoned room. Some people also said that they heard the sound of it falling on the ground. After her bedroom window slid open by itself 📍Location: 1850 Huaihai Rd (M), Xuhui District, Shanghai, China 2️⃣💃 The Paramount (Image 3) The Paramount was one of the most stylish and trendy places in Shanghai in the 1930s. The socialites would go there to dance until late into the night. Even Charlie Chaplin once went there to dance. Over time, The Paramount transformed into a dance hall where girls could be paid to dance. The most beautiful of the dancing girls was Chen Manli. Legend has it that she refused to dance with a foreign soldier, which made him so displeased that he sent someone to murder her on the dance floor. Locals say that on some nights, Chen Manli's spirit would slowly come out to dance alone. 📍Location: 218 Yuyuan Rd, Jing'an, Shanghai, China 3️⃣🚇 Caobao Rd. subway station (Image 4) The Caobao Rd. station has an unlucky location, as it is located near a morgue. (The female staff bathroom was said to have been next to the hospital's morgue.) There have been rumors of as many as nine mysterious deaths at the station. Trains inexplicably stop working. Sometimes, a woman's laughter can be heard echoing along the tracks at night. 📍Location: Caobao Rd. Metro Station (Line 1, 12) 4️⃣🐅 Cha House (Image 5) It was originally the home of the Qiu brothers, Shanghai's paint industry tycoons in the early 20th century, who collected a variety of wild animals in their garden, including peacocks, Bengal tigers, pigeons, and even crocodiles. However, after the brothers fled the mansion, the animals were eventually abandoned and died. It is said that during the building's renovation in 2009, construction workers encountered unexplained beasts and bite marks, leading many to believe that the place is filled with the evil spirits of abandoned animals. 📍Location: 420 Weihai Rd, Jing'an, Shanghai, China 5️⃣🐉 Dragon Pillar (Image 6) Among the many pillars supporting the elevated structure in Shanghai, the Dragon Pillar on East Yan'an Rd. is the most famous, not just because of its design. But the story behind the construction is that the engineers were unable to drill through the soil in that area, despite Shanghai’s normally soft soil structure, and construction was halted. A Chinese monk explained that the engineers failed to drill through the soil because they were trying to drill through the veins of a dragon, and suggested decorating the pillar with nine golden dragons. The monks then performed ancient chanting at the site for several days before the ground finally gave way. The monk died shortly after. Although some experts have come up with scientific explanations, the dragon pillar remains one of the most famous legends in Shanghai. 📍Location: Intersection of North Chengdu Rd. (成都北路) and Yan'an Rd. (延安路) 6️⃣🎶 Pacific Department Store (Image 7) The Pacific Department Store in Xu Jiahui was established in 1993. Locals know that it likes to play the classic children’s song “Bao Bei Dui Bu Qi” (Darling, I’m Sorry) over the speakers all day long, and it plays it repeatedly, to the point where people get bored and even annoyed. It is said that this mall is located on the graveyard of an orphanage. Night watchmen would often hear the cries of babies and the laughter of children even when there was no one else in the building. Therefore, a feng shui master advised them to play lullabies day and night to comfort the lingering spirits. This mall was closed in 2023. Where have you been? I'm sure many people have taken pictures with the Wu Kang building, right?

You can adjust it according to your own toughness and endurance. I think this is quite detailed and packed (I actually followed this plan. If I can handle it, I will continue. Sometimes when it rains, I have to put the plan aside🥲)

✓ Heyi Supreme Hotel During a business trip to Shanghai, I stayed at a hotel near People's Square and Nanjing Road Pedestrian Street. This hotel is a high-end brand under the Home Inn Group, located in a historic building that was once the Sincere Department Store, exuding a rich old Shanghai charm. The hotel combines traditional classic and modern stylish designs, incorporating elements of Eastern elegance and Western craftsmanship, offering a refined ambiance. The room I stayed in was a standard king room, with a spacious 25 square meters. The overall design was simple and comfortable, and the lobby featured many old Shanghai-style decorations. The nightly rate was approximately TWD 2,500. The hotel's location is extremely convenient, close to People's Square Station and East Nanjing Road Station on the metro. It's within walking distance to The Bund, Yuyuan Garden, and the Huaihai Road shopping district.

Chongming Island is a hidden paradise just over an hour from the hustle and bustle of Shanghai. It is filled with lush green rice fields, organic gardens, conservation areas and a slow-paced lifestyle. Must-do activities include: 🌿 Dongtan Wetlands: Home to the endangered Chinese alligator, it is also a bird sanctuary with 116 species of birds, including many rare species. During the migration season, up to 3 million birds call the island home, and the best time for bird watching is from November to March. 🍂 Dongping National Park: There are trails to explore the park and a zipline station for thrill seekers. The autumn foliage is especially beautiful. 🥬 Experience the Farm: Chongming Island is home to a variety of fruits and vegetables, and each vegetable is incredibly large. It is recommended to visit the farm and pick seasonal fruits, such as oranges and yangmei. Watch local games, take a boat ride or cycle around the farm. 🥢 Eat local food: The food here is very fresh because the vegetables are grown locally and the meat is raised in the home. The seafood is also big because Chongming Island is located by the sea. Transportation: Method 1: 🚖 Taxi or Didi (most convenient) Suitable for groups of friends or families who want to travel comfortably. It takes about an hour from downtown Shanghai, about ¥200–¥300 per trip. Method 2: 🚇 + 🚌 Subway + Express Bus (cheaper) Take subway line 1 to Wenshui Road Station (汶水路), exit 4, then take the Chongming Express Line (崇明线) bus that stops outside the station.

Anyone who goes to Shanghai must go to Shanghai Expo Culture Park. It took 7 years to build. Inside the park is very big. There are many tourist attractions. But today I would like to recommend this place, Shanghai Greenhouse, a tropical plant greenhouse. There are 3 zones with different themes. 🌿⛰ Hall 1: Sand Mirage - This hall displays desert plants. There are beautiful and rare plants, cacti and giant baobab trees that we have only seen in documentaries. Hall 2: Clouds Forest - A tropical mist forest. When you enter, you will see a simulated waterfall. It is very beautiful and magnificent. It is like being lost in a South American rainforest. There is a suspension bridge upstairs to walk and see the view and plants from a high angle. The walkway to the mist valley has a tunnel showing the underwater ecosystem. There are also salamanders to see. Hall 3: Clouds Canyon - A very mysterious mist valley. This hall has a lot of flowers. Add to that the palm trees and rocky cliff decorations, and it looks like a primeval forest in Jurassic Park. ✅ Advance booking is required to visit the Greenhouse. 🕘 Opening hours: 9:00-17:00 (Closed every Monday, except for public holidays).

#Overseas travel #Shanghai #China travel #China #Shanghai restaurants 🇨🇳 Shanghai, China (中国上海) 🦞 大蚝钳途 龙虾 烧烤 涮羊肉(浦江欢乐颂店) May to July is the season for Chinese crayfish (小龙虾). You can eat Chinese crayfish xiaolongxia all year round in China, but if you eat it in May to July, you can taste the meaty, seasonal xiaolongxia, so you can eat even more delicious xiaolongxia. I visited a famous Shanghai restaurant called 大蚝钳途 龙虾 烧烤 涮羊肉 (Pujiang Yue Le Fang Jian) ​​which was a 20-minute walk from the hotel I was staying at. My friend and I ordered soy sauce-based xiaolongxia with rice cakes, various skewers, and grilled seafood. This xiaolongxia restaurant surprisingly lets you choose the size of the xiaolongxia, so we chose the large xiaolongxia that was easy to spread and eat. We ordered this and paid 341 yuan. Xiaolongxia is usually eaten with spicy sauce, but I don't prefer spicy sauce, so I always order it with soy sauce-based sauce. First of all, the xiaolongxia with a sweet sauce and full of meat was so delicious. I think the head part is the best part of xiaolongxia. The grilled oysters and scallops that I ordered together were soft and had a nice garlic flavor, which made me applaud! I also ordered various skewers such as pork belly, beef, and beef cartilage. All the menu items were so delicious. If you are traveling to China during the Xiaolongxia season, you must try Xiaolongxia (小龙虾) 🦞🇨🇳♥️

💞Reason for recommendation: We went in January (1 week after New Year) before Chinese New Year. I will say that there were fewer people. We didn't have to queue at many famous restaurants. Disney tickets are not expensive. The weather is good. The food is delicious. Go. The city is beautiful. Things are cheap. 98/100 out of 100, minus 2. The weather is too cold. Focus on wearing thick clothes. Don't challenge the cold weather in China. #ShanghaiHotel #TravelChina #TravelPlan #ShanghaiTravel

Sometimes, the best way to experience Shanghai isn’t by rushing to landmarks — it’s by wandering aimlessly, coffee in hand, and letting the old lanes and hidden corners surprise you 💭 Here’s my slow-living route through the city — no crowds, no rush, just vibes 👇 ⸻ 🌞 Morning | Start in Fuxing West Road (复兴西路) 🚇 Metro Line 10 or 11 — Shanghai Library Station 🧱 Quiet French-style streets, parasol trees, historic villas ☕ Grab coffee from Café del Volcán or Manner Coffee 📸 Snap ivy-covered walls, cats sunbathing, or cute entryways 💡Tip: Walk slowly, take side alleys — that’s where the magic is ⸻ 📚 Late Morning | Sinan Books (思南书局) 📍A beautifully designed indie bookstore inside an old building 🪞Wooden floors, big windows, and a peaceful reading corner 🖋️ Buy a local poetry zine or minimalist postcard ⸻ 🥢 Lunch | Wukang Road (武康路) or Ferguson Lane 🍽️ Try a small bistro or hidden noodle shop 🥢 Options: Handmade wontons, Shanghainese cold noodles, or light fusion brunch 🌿 Ferguson Lane has lots of artsy shops & cozy restaurants ⸻ 🍵 Afternoon | Xiangyang Park or a Teahouse 🌳 Walk through Xiangyang Park — locals playing chess, tai chi, or just people-watching 🍵 Sit at a lowkey teahouse like Teasure or Song Fang Maison de Thé for an hour of quiet sipping ⸻ 🎨 Late Afternoon | Tianzifang Backstreets (Avoid Main Lane) 📍 Skip the crowded tourist alleys 🌸 Instead, wander around Taikang Road’s hidden back lanes — see how the locals still live in converted shikumen 📷 Great for moody film photos & capturing Shanghai’s everyday life ⸻ 🌙 Evening | Quiet Dinner + Sunset Walk 🍜 Grab dinner at a small noodle bar or hidden izakaya in Anfu Road area 🌆 Optional: Take a slow walk around Xujiahui Park or along the Suhe Creek at dusk — peaceful, glowing, and mostly local ⸻ 💬 Final thoughts: You don’t need to do much in Shanghai to feel the city.

The Bund Bull, a bronze bull statue is another check-in point when visiting Shanghai that you can't miss. It is believed that touching the bull will bring good luck, receive positive energy and enhance financial luck. An easy way to get there is to walk to the end of Nanjing Pedestrian Street. If you are facing the Pearl Tower, walk to the right for about 500 meters. It is in front of Bangkok Bank (on the opposite side of the road). #ShanghaiTravel #ShanghaiTravel #TheBund #shanghai

The other accommodation we stayed at in Shanghai this time was located in the very center of the city. From the hotel, you can walk to Nanjing Road. It's very convenient...📍Pacific Hotel This hotel is located in the very center of the city. It's a vintage European-style accommodation with carpets and wooden furniture. Taking pictures in the hotel is very beautiful. —- 🫶🏻 The staff at the lobby were very helpful. Someone could communicate in English. We once asked them to help us call a taxi because the app couldn't call one at that time. They came to call one and waited to send us to the taxi. They also told the driver that they were customers at the hotel. —- 🛌 The room we stayed in was a twin bed. We were very lucky that we got a corner room because it seemed to be larger than the other rooms. The room was so much bigger that we could leave both suitcases open without having to close them. —- 🛀 The bathroom here has a bathtub and a window right next to the sink. In the morning, the light comes in this way. It's very beautiful. I like the natural light when putting on makeup. Because the bedroom lights are a bit darker —- 🏨 There is a water dispenser downstairs in the lobby of the hotel. You can go downstairs at night. When you come out of the hotel, you can walk for less than 2 minutes to New World shopping mall. We stop by this mall every day. We go to eat and find delicious restaurants + buy bubble tea before going out. —- 🛍️ You can walk to Nanjing Road to shop and then bring your stuff back to the hotel. You can rest and go out again in the evening. It is about 500 meters away. The sidewalk is wide and very easy to walk. —- 💰The room rate is ~2725 baht (the price of accommodation may be different in each period) —- #TravelChina #TravelShanghai #AccommodationChina #AccommodationShanghai #AccommodationReview #HotelReview #ShanghaiHotelReview #TravelAbroad #TravelAbroadByYourself #TravelAbroadByYourself
