Top 3 Must-Visit Landmarks in Shanghai

When it comes to relaxing in Shanghai, the three popular landmarks I visited this time: Shanghai Disney Resort, Shanghai Summit Observation Deck, and Nanjing Road Pedestrian Street—they're definitely the perfect "Shanghai Check-In Flash Tour"! Summer vacation in Shanghai, with its clear skies and modern urban atmosphere, makes your trip incredibly enjoyable, whether exploring the outdoor cultural attractions or gazing down at the night sky from skyscrapers! A quick tip: Summer can be incredibly hot, so don't forget to wear sunscreen. Booking tickets in advance is both time-saving and convenient. All three destinations are worth exploring! Recommended Attractions First Stop: Shanghai Disney Resort 📍Address: 310 Huangzhao Road, Chuansha New Town, Pudong New District, Shanghai 🕰Opening Hours: (Check official announcements for the latest hours, subject to holiday adjustments) Generally open 8:30 AM - 9:30 PM or 10:00 PM 💰Tickets: 399 RMB The moment you step into Disneyland, you'll instantly feel like you're in a fairytale world! Especially on a clear day, the castle's shimmering reflections and the Western-style architecture create stunning photos. Remember to book your tickets online in advance to save time during peak hours! For popular rides like TRON Lightcycle Power Run and Pirates of the Caribbean, it's recommended to queue up in the morning. Summer heat is intense, so be sure to pack sunscreen spray and a hat. The sun is at its strongest between 12:00 and 16:00, so remember to apply sunscreen! For park dining recommendations, try the Mickey Mouse burgers and ice cream in the park—they're both adorable and refreshing. Second Stop: Top of Shanghai Observation Deck 📍Address: 118th Floor, Shanghai Tower, 501 Yincheng Middle Road, Pudong New District, Shanghai 🕰Opening Hours: 8:30 AM - 10:00 PM (last admission 9:30 PM) 💰Tickets: 180 RMB The 118th-floor observation deck at Top of Shanghai offers a true immersion in the "Magic City Skyline"! Open the window to the panoramic view of the city, with its modern buildings unobstructed. At night, the skyscrapers illuminated ablaze, creating a stunning photo opportunity. There are professional photography spots on site for those who want to capture a memorable photo. We highly recommend visiting in the evening to watch the sunset and enjoy the night view—get two ambiances at once! If you're afraid of the heat, the air-conditioning throughout the walk will make you want to leave! Third Stop: Nanjing Road Pedestrian Street 📍Address: Nanjing East Road, Huangpu District, Shanghai 🕰Opening Hours: Open all day, year-round A time-honored shopping paradise and a hub for authentic cuisine, the Western-style architecture and surrounding scenery create a charming atmosphere during the day, while at night, the city's vibrant lights shimmer and bring the city to life. Strolling through the streets, you'll find a variety of brand-name stores. Classic Shanghainese restaurants line the pedestrian street, like Dexingguan and Shen Dacheng Dim Sum. There are plenty of delicious snacks to try, like fried dough twists (ma hua), shrimp dumplings (xiao long bao), and crab roe soup dumplings—you'll get a taste of authentic Shanghai cuisine all in one trip! The pedestrian street stretches approximately 1.5 kilometers, making it a convenient stroll with plenty of breaks and photo opportunities. Practical Tips 1. Sun protection is crucial when traveling in the summer. In hot weather, always carry sunscreen and a hat, and a water bottle for constant hydration. 2. For all three landmarks, it's recommended to book tickets online in advance (see trip.com) to avoid the hassle of waiting in line, especially during peak Disney season. 3. Nanjing Road Pedestrian Street is perfect for an evening stroll, and you can also take in the Bund views along the way – the stunning night view is not to be missed. Food Recommendations Around Nanjing Road: - Crab Roe Soup Dumplings (next to Xiao Yang's Fried Dumplings) - Shanghai Style Classic Dim Sum (Shen Dacheng Nanjing East Road Branch) - Braised Beef Noodles @ Dexing Pavilion Transportation Tips - The Shanghai Metro and public transportation are extremely convenient. Disneyland has a direct subway link, and each attraction is within easy reach. For daytime travel, we recommend a combination of subway and walking. - For the best views of the Bund's nightscape, walk to the end of Nanjing Road. Walking along the riverside offers the best views! #ShanghaiCheck-in#SummerFamilyTrip#DisneyFlashMob#NightViewRecommendations#NanjingRoadFood
