Ancient Buddhist temple in Shanghai

On my last trip to Shanghai, a friend took me to visit this oldest Buddhist temple in Shanghai, Jing’an Temple. Jing'an is only located on Nanjing West Road in Jing'an District, surrounded by large shopping malls, I didn't expect a temple to stand in the bustling city center. The area of ​​Jing'an Temple is very large, if you slowly visit, you have to walk for two hours to walk through, and the temple's environment is very beautiful, the decoration is also very characteristic! Basically every place can be photographed and checked in. Even if you have no religious beliefs, you can come and walk around! I recommend this unique temple to everyone. If you have the opportunity to go to Shanghai, you must go and see it! #OverseasTravel #I miss

Bund Skyline Magic✨

The Bund

Modern Marvels & Timeless Views in Shanghai 🚶♂️🏙️ Get ready for an urban adventure through Shanghai’s must-see icons, blending sleek skyscrapers, buzzing cultural spots, and riverside romance—all in one unforgettable stroll! Start with Nanjing Road Pedestrian Street, the liveliest shopping boulevard in China (Henan Middle Road, Huangpu District, open all day). Dive into laidback morning walks or prime evening people-watching. Pro tip: Early arrival means fewer crowds and soft sunlight for your shots. Don’t miss snaps featuring modern storefronts framed by heritage buildings—super insta-worthy on a sunny day! Next, head to The Bund (Zhongshan East Road, right by the Huangpu River—open all day), Shanghai’s dreamy riverside promenade lined with colonial architecture and shimmering city skylines. For that epic photo, pose with the futuristic Pudong skyline behind you, especially as day turns to neon-lit night. Take a moment to soak up both the city buzz and gentle river breeze—my personal highlight! Finish by hopping onto the Jinling East Road Ferry (No.141 Bund, open 7:00 AM–9:00 PM) for a unique, budget-friendly way to cross the river. The Ferry offers front-row city views, especially on cloudy or rainy days—the contrast with gleaming glass towers is unreal. Pack a light raincoat just in case, as weather shifts quickly. Quick Tips: Wear comfy shoes, as you’ll be on your feet all day. Plan to visit in the early morning or late evening for magical light and fewer crowds. Always keep an eye out for changing weather! #Shanghai #UrbanAdventure #ModernArchitecture #TheBund #CityViews
