Description
Find your own journey. Shanghai can be experienced through small streets, sweeping views, and places with entirely different characters. Pocket Shanghai offers a compact introduction to the city and helps you choose a few key experiences that can give a short trip a personal direction.
Experiences to look forward to. The streets of Tianzifang, the view from the Transparent Observatory, and a break at Zen Massage are among the book’s examples. It also covers People’s Park, Yuyuan Gardens & Bazaar, and Jade Buddha Temple. Suggested days and walks help you put together a selection of visits.
Who is this guide suitable for? Choose this when you want a small guide for a few days in Shanghai. It suits those who wish to prioritize a few areas and have time to discover more between the bigger experiences.
From inspiration to your own plan. Use the guide before departure to choose a few experiences you really want, and see them in context with the rest of the trip. A day with fewer stops can give you more time to get to know each area, and it is often useful to leave some hours less fixed. Browse through it together with your travel companions, compare ideas, and find a balance between what you want to fit in and what you want time to experience.
A physical travel guide is also nice to return to along the way. Bring it out when the next day is being discussed, find an idea you noted earlier, and let your plans develop as you get to know the destination. It works both as inspiration before departure and as support when you want to make concrete choices during the trip.
