If you only have 2 days to spend in Shanghai, just follow this itinerary

Shanghai, the Magic City, has so many great places to eat, shop, and take photos. It's really perfect for hopping on a high-speed train for a weekend getaway. - 👇 Today's shared route is artistic and photogenic, making it easy to experience both the modern and lively sides of Shanghai. ✍️ If you're also spending 2 days in Shanghai, just copy this plan~ - 🗺️【2 Days 1 Night Itinerary】 ▪️DAY 1 Arrive in Shanghai -> Check in at a hotel near Jing'an Temple -> Relax with afternoon tea -> Night view of Jing'an Temple ▪️DAY 2 Check in at Shanghai Exhibition Center -> City walk and photo shoot on Yuyuan Road -> Return trip - 📍Jing'an Temple An ancient temple surrounded by bustling traffic and skyscrapers. The best photo spot is on the pedestrian bridge opposite Jing'an Temple. 🔖 It’s recommended to wait on the bridge at dusk for sunset and lights; using a slow shutter speed can capture the light trails of the traffic. . 📍Shanghai Exhibition Center A Russian-style architectural complex, reachable by walking from Jing'an Temple. Usually not crowded, no need to fight for a spot~ 🔖 Inside, the spiral staircase and corridor in the East-West Garden are perfect for photos 💯 . 📍Yuyuan Road The stretch from Zhongshan Park to Jiangsu Road is one of Shanghai’s most classic city walk routes. Both sides of the road are lined with tall plane trees, with various unique shops and cafes. 🔖 My favorite part is the Yuyuan Public Market section, with its dopamine-colored shopfronts, each one full of charm~ - 🏨Shanghai Aiben Boutique Hotel 📍Located near Jing'an Temple, within walking distance to Jing'an Temple Metro Station, very convenient for getting around. ♻️ This hotel is converted from an old warehouse, incorporating recycled wood discarded during renovations in the former French Concession, old suitcases from antique markets, and stone signboards... blending eco-friendliness with modern design without losing aesthetic appeal. 🍹 The hotel’s ground-floor Big Rooster Tavern offers Chinese and Western breakfast and afternoon tea. On nice days, you can enjoy a coffee or tea in the outdoor garden, savoring a unique sense of calm amid the bustling Jing'an Temple commercial area. 🛏️ My favorite feature is the sunken design inside the rooms, with a modular sofa facing the old Western-style houses outside the window, combining design and comfort. - 🍜 Food Recommendations ✔️ Hu Xi Old Alley Noodle Shop: Recommended clam and pork liver noodles ✔️ Grandma’s Taste: Affordable Shanghai local cuisine ✔️ Gui Banjiao: Creative specialty dishes at Kerry Center
