📍Address: Zhongshan East 1st Road, Huangpu District, Shanghai (from Waibaidu Bridge in the north to Jinling East Road in the south) 🚗Transportation: 🚅Get off at Nanjing East Road Station on Metro Line 2 and Line 10, and it is within walking distance; 🚎Bus No. 20, 37, etc. can also reach the site. Public transportation is convenient, but parking is difficult if you drive yourself, so it is recommended to take public transportation. ⏰Best time to visit: The Bund lights up from 19:00 to 23:00 in summer (May to September); from 18:00 to 22:00 in autumn to the following spring (October to April); lights may be turned off one hour later on holidays. 🚏Travel route: The Bund is about 1.5 kilometers long and extends along the Huangpu River. On the left is a universal architectural exposition of various styles, and on the right is the Huangpu River and the skyscrapers of Lujiazui on the opposite bank. Walking from south to north, you can appreciate the beauty of the interweaving of history and modernity. 1⃣Enjoy the night view: The Bund is shining with neon lights at night, which is very romantic. On the other side of the river, the Oriental Pearl Tower, Jinmao Tower, Shanghai World Financial Center and other iconic buildings in Jiazui are all brightly lit and in full view. 2⃣International Buildings: 52 classical revival buildings, each with its own characteristics, show the former style of "Wall Street of the Far East", with unique harmonious beauty, and each building has a rich historical story. 3⃣Waibaidu Bridge: The northern starting point of the Bund, the bridge where Yiping jumped into the river in "My Fair Princess", it is worth a stroll. 4⃣ Yuanmingyuan Road: This small street hidden behind the International Building Complex is a miniature of the old Shanghai, a popular check-in spot, and a great place for taking photos. Rockbund Art Museum: If you are interested in modern art, you may want to spend an hour or two visiting it. The ticket price is 60 yuan. Excellent works of modern art are often exhibited, and there are free explanations every day to help you understand the connotation of the works. 🍱Food: There are many delicious foods nearby. If you want to try Shanghai specialties, don’t miss the pan-fried buns, pork ribs and rice cakes. The pan-fried buns at Dahuchun (Sichuan Middle Road Store) are great. If you want exquisite Western food or afternoon tea, the Roosevelt Lust Caution restaurant in the Bund Source is a good choice. It has a great environment, fine food and a view of the Bund, but the price is high. 📸Photography check-in point: The terrace at No. 18 on the Bund, where you can take panoramic photos of the Bund and Lujiazui with a dazzling background. You can take photos after consuming at the terrace bar. At the junction of Nanjing East Road Pedestrian Street and the Bund, the contrast between prosperity and historical buildings is sharp, which is very photogenic. The Lujiazui circular skywalk is a great place to take photos of the unique shape of the "three-piece set", especially under the lights at night. 💡Note: There are many tourists on the Bund, especially on holidays, so please take care of your belongings. If you want to take beautiful photos, bring a power bank in case your phone runs out of battery. Go early in the morning or on weekdays to avoid the crowds and take photos. It's windy by the river, so keep warm. If you are taking a cruise on the Huangpu River, book your ticket online in advance to avoid long queues. Come to the Bund to experience the charm of the Magic City! The historical buildings, dazzling night views and tempting food will surely make you linger. #Light luxury travel #The most asked place in Moments #Girlfriends photo guide #My honeymoon trip

#favouriteitinerary This time in Shanghai, I finally got to try Xiaolongbao (soup dumplings)! I ordered the crab roe Xiaolongbao, which is unique to Shanghai. The fried pork chop was just average. We went to Lai Lai Xiaolong in Jing’an District. On another day, we tried Shanghai’s traditional Shengjianbao (pan-fried soup buns) at Da Hu Chun, and on the last day, we had breakfast at Xiao Yang Shengjian, which was incredibly juicy! We also had Shanghai’s famous Scallion Oil Noodles, which came with a free extra serving of noodles. But for us girls, one bowl was already more than enough! I chose their signature and famous Clam & Pork Liver Noodles. Even though I usually don’t eat pork liver, I found it quite enjoyable—delicious! 😋 China is truly a food paradise. 😍😍😍

Da Huchun's storefront and interior decoration are antique, and the afternoon business is still very good. The skin of the big pot spring is fermented with gravy, so although the skin is thick and there is no juice, the taste of the gravy invades the skin. I believe everyone who likes to eat meat and bun hides. In addition to the taste of eating as a child, Dahuchun also added new flavors and new roasting methods. There are also a variety of choices for fresh meat, shrimp and clams. [Specially made small pot fried] The special small pot is cooked on the iron plate, and the skin is crispy and fragrant. There are ten raw fried, four fresh meat, four shrimps, and two clams. The shrimp has a whole fresh shrimp in it, and the taste is Q-bomb. You must eat hot, you will be a little embarrassed when you are cold. No appointment is required.

Shanghai Dahuchun (flagship store), a cheap restaurant promoted by Michelin cuisine, the hand-made specialty fried omelet in the store is very popular. The sauted squash is crispy and covered with large pieces of meatballs. Most of them are filled with fresh meat, which is sweet. Bite down, the soup is hot, the meatballs are firm and taste good. Shrimp and chaos and thousands of fan soup are slightly salty. Address: No. 136, Sichuan Middle Road, very close to the Bund.
