Day 1: Arrive in Shanghai at night Day 2: #Dahuchun Shengjianbao (Later found out the taste varies by location) (The flavor at the department store downstairs was average; recommend the bigger store) #Changsha Black Stinky Tofu (I personally prefer Taiwanese stinky tofu) #Salted Chocolate Latte (Highly recommend! Drank it almost every day) (Comparable to Taipei’s Tianmu District) Day 3: #Ancient Town Sesame Tangyuan (A must-eat for sesame lovers) (China’s largest beverage company) (Comparable to Taipei’s Xinyi District) (Cultural and creative market) #Quanjude Peking Duck (Missed it last time in Beijing) Day 4: (Family-friendly attractions) #Rongjia Yellow Croaker Noodles (Michelin Bib Gourmand recommended) Children’s Playground (Photo 14) #Shanghai Xujiahui Catholic Church (Didn’t go inside due to time constraints) #Shanghai Circus World (Very different from Macau’s Cirque du Soleil) #Dian Du De Dim Sum Restaurant (Hong Kong-style dim sum, with roasted pigeon) Day 5: (4/4 Children’s Day) (Must-visit Hangzhou cuisine for a second time) #Ninety Leaves Matcha Specialty Store (A must for matcha lovers) #shanghaidisneyresort Because of Children’s Day, Disneyland exceptionally held fireworks twice. The kids’ favorite part was the Avengers segment. This trip was very crowded; even fast pass tickets couldn’t be bought on the same day. Many shows, meet-and-greets, and parades are recommended to be booked early according to the schedule.
