As early as the end of last century, Taiwan Province Province, Hongkong and even Europe and America were already crazy about Shanghai. Since last year, Japanese high fashion magazines have also started to do special topics on Shanghai. This year, this craze for finding Shanghai officially landed in Singapore. At present, Singapore Airlines and China Eastern Airlines have five direct flights from Singapore to Shanghai every day. Starting from this month 18, China Eastern Airlines will add one flight every day. According to the tourism industry, the number of flights to Shanghai is in short supply, and every flight is full. As terrorism enveloped the west, Singaporeans who like to travel began to turn their travel targets to Asia. Shanghai fever will continue to heat up in the next year or two.

Accommodation: There are many hotels in Shanghai, which can meet the consumption requirements of all walks of life. Economic choice for backpackers: Jinjiang Star, with TV and bathroom in the room, about 60 to 80 RMB.

Bargaining: Singaporeans have developed the habit of bargaining when shopping in the outdoor market. Pick up bargains at Shanghai flea market (Dongtai Road), Lishui Street around Chenghuang Temple and Xiangyang Market in Huaihai Middle Road. If you are tough enough, you can start at half price.

Cafe: As early as 1930s and 1940s, Shanghai had a continental cafe comparable to Europe. Individual guidebooks named the coffee stall on Maoming South Road, which is known as the cultural street of coffee bar, and the old Shanghai coffee in yandang road. The reporter specially introduced: Hanyuan Bookstore on Shaoxing Road.

Gourmet: Shanghai is not only a paradise for shopping, but also a paradise for food. Food is a cinch, and the economic benefits make people happy. Oliver recommended: Eat Shanghai snacks, and the green waves of the Chenghuang Temple ripple; Local cuisine (Shanghai cuisine), Meilong Town (Nanjing West Road 108 1 Lane No.22), Shanghai Old Hotel (No.242 Fu You Road); Eating hairy crabs, Wang Baohe Hotel (No.555 Jiujiang Road).

Entertainment: The newly developed modern hot springs can better represent the entertainment spirit of Shanghai. Just as Japanese people have their own bathing culture, Shanghainese bathhouse culture also has its own genre. The Grand View Garden is a Shanghai bathhouse with a history of one hundred years. The new bathhouse operates on a healthy and leisure route, and its equipment is similar to the popular spa, but there are more choices in entertainment equipment, including reading rooms, fishing ponds, cinemas, restaurants and coffee bars. Oliver said, "These baths are open 24 hours a day, and their expenses range from 300 yuan to 500 yuan, which is cheaper than staying in a hotel. Guests can put their luggage in a special cabinet and enjoy the bathroom facilities. At present, the weekend entertainment of Shanghainese is to soak in hot springs. "

Fake: In the outdoor market, you will meet someone who comes to you and asks if you want to buy cheap brand-name goods (that is, A goods, fake goods). Don't be cheated. As for the blind people who are bent on finding good quality and low price in Shanghai, the expert's tip is that there are all kinds of goods. The problem is that buyers should understand the goods and not be afraid of "seeing people badly".

Guide Book/Garden Mansion: Among the existing Shanghai guides for eating, drinking and having fun, Taiwan Province Province has the most choices. If crowded sightseeing is not to your taste, you may wish to refer to the books about Shanghai life written by modern Shanghai writers. For example, Wang Anyi's Looking for Shanghai and Chen's Love in Shanghai. Understanding Shanghai from the images, Gala's "Shanghai 77th Floor" has created another imagination space. I want to trace back to the origin of Shanghai School, which is highly praised by academic and cultural circles. Professor Leo Oufan Lee has made a profound analysis.

History: To understand the history of China 1000 years ago, go to Beijing; I want to know the history of China in recent 100 years. In 1930s, Shanghai was called Paris of the East, while modern Shanghai was regarded as new york of the East. Being able to visit Shanghai with this knowledge will definitely add a depth of witnessing the legend of the great era to the travel experience other than eating, drinking and having fun.

Intellectual interest: Buying books in China is a great pleasure for readers, especially Chinese reading. Don't miss the book scanning in Bookstore Street, Fuzhou Road. Just a seven-story Shanghai Book City can kill a whole day, or even more.

Jazz performance: Listening to jazz at the Peace Hotel (No.20 Nanjing East Road) is the key project of Shanghai's nostalgic trip. Four Seasons Hotel jazz37 (No.500 Weihai Road) was praised as "the modern successor of Peace Hotel" by Taiwan Province media.

Ktv: There are two kinds of ktv in Shanghai: pure singing and "K room", which are magnificent and have ladies sitting on the stage. First-time visitors can clearly explain their choice of service. Oliver said that ktv in Shanghai is still popular for guests to record their own records and collect their karaoke songs on CDs. Costs range from 65,438+000 yuan to 65,438+050 yuan.

Listen: the traffic in Shanghai is always chaotic. Traffic lights only work on cars. Pedestrians are in a hurry and there are no cars. The driver's driving skills are superb It only takes a moment to cut in line and change lines, and he will never be soft when he honks the horn, so it is very important to keep his ears open when walking on the road.

Museum: If you want to have a brief understanding of Shanghai's past, present and future in the shortest time, you will gain something by visiting the Shanghai Urban Planning Exhibition Hall for one hour. (Renmin Avenue 100; Open from 9 am to 4 pm; Tickets RMB 30 yuan)

Noodles: If you don't have noodles, you will feel that Shanghai is a paradise. Introduction: "From tradition to modernity, from north to south, from street to old noodle restaurant", the selection of Shanghai pasta is wonderful, and the consumption is also cheap (generally below 15 yuan), but I'm afraid my stomach can't digest it one by one.

Outbound travel: Many tourists take Shanghai as their base camp and leave Shanghai Railway Station for Suzhou, Hangzhou, Nanjing and other surrounding areas. There are flights every hour, and a one-day tour is absolutely feasible. If you want to go further, you can also take a three-hour bus to Zhujiajiao, a water town. With the passage of time, the reporter specially suggested that we fly to Huangshan for four days and three nights, and then go to glad you came.

Pubs: The nightclubs in Shanghai are mainly concentrated in several areas: Maoming South Road, Jing 'an Park, Fuxing Park, hengshan road and its surrounding areas, and Xintiandi. On mature management, hengshan road comes first; Love the new and hate the old, choose the new world first.

Cheongsam: The effect of the movie "In the Mood for Love", the traditional improved cheongsam once again entered the girls' fashion wardrobe. To make cheongsam in Shanghai, Shanghainese recommend Hualien Commercial Building, formerly known as Yongan Company, with a tailor shop on the 4th floor.

Toilet: Special tips for distinguished ladies and gentlemen. The ubiquitous S-prefix coffee stands and attached toilets in Shanghai tourist area are satisfactory. As for the cleanliness of toilets in large department stores, it is barely acceptable.

Safety: Shanghai is very safe and convenient, as long as you follow the general city safety rules, such as avoiding quiet corners and taking things carefully in crowded places.

Transportation: From the middle of this year, all international flights will land at Pudong International Airport. Airbus is attached to the airport, and it travels to and from the main streets of the city several times every hour. The subway can reach almost all tourist attractions. Subway charges start from RMB 2 yuan. Taking a taxi in Shanghai is called "taking a taxi", and taking off in 2 yuan is RMB. After arriving at the destination, the fare receipt will be automatically printed, indicating the car number, date, boarding and alighting time, mileage and charge amount. The driver's service is kind and friendly, and the money will be deducted automatically if something goes wrong.

Daughter-in-law: Shanghai men are called new good men. They love their wives. They do laundry and cook, and the wife only needs to focus on beauty. So Shanghai Baby has become another charming scenery in Shanghai. Beauty, shrewdness and reality are, of course, the stereotype of Shanghai Baby, and its true nature of combining rigidity with softness and sharing weal and woe is deeply analyzed by writer Wang Anyi in the book Looking for Shanghai.

Vegetarian/Visa: Vegetarians don't have to eat enough when they come to Shanghai. Soymilk, fried dough sticks, sesame cakes, vegetarian jiaozi, vegetarian noodles, fruits and vegetables of the four seasons, and Shanghainese home cooking are all fresh flavors for tourists.

Walking: You just need good feet and a clear and accurate map. Walking is the best way to visit the city scenery. The main sightseeing streets in Shanghai are connected with each other. The reporter tried to walk from Huaihai Middle Road to Nanjing East Road, and then to Chenghuang Temple, seeing the prosperity of the city and the life of the citizens all the way. If you want to feel the atmosphere of the French Concession, you might as well take a walk on the streets with French phoenix trees on both sides. The old houses on both sides of Sinan Road and Shaoxing Road have a quiet atmosphere and smell of time solidification.

Xintiandi: Xintiandi, the happiest leisure area in Shanghai at present. The concept of this area is very similar to the local ship dock, with new and old buildings renovated, bars, restaurants, cafes and places where fashionable men and women meet. The biggest selling point of Xintiandi is to transform Shanghai traditional building Shikumen into a leisure area.

Yearning: If you want to feel Shanghai's material desires, please take a trip to Huaihai Middle Road and Nanjing East Road.

Zzzzzz: Shanghai is a city that never sleeps. Bars and jazz cafes are more beautiful as night falls. Beauty salons, barbershops and hot springs are all open 24 hours a day. Shanghai nightclubs can only be opened until 2 am, but there are also arrested "shops" that let guests drink until 8 am. Oliver smiled and said, "I don't sleep in Shanghai. There are too many places to go at night. "
