If you have only two full days in Shanghai and you would like to feel, touch and see the essential Shanghai, the two-day itinerary in Shanghai below is my suggested example to plan your own memorable Shanghai Tour in two days.
Bazaar Shanghai (Yuyuan Bazaar) Getting out from Yuyuan Baraar, you will see YuanBazaar. Yuyuan Bazaar, or Yuyuan Market, is the largest Flea Market in Shanghai. You can buy all the souvenirs you want. It is also a haven for street food: soup dumplings, sweets, even birds-on-a-stick. If you want to look back on the bygone days of Shanghai, the Shanghai Old Streets in Yuyuan Bazaar will lead you to travel through the time tunnel back to 100 years ago.
Hengshan Road Bar Street Taking Metro Line 10 and getting off at National Library Station, you come to the most famous night hangout in Beijing – Hengshan Road Bar Street. You will have the chance to see the oldest and also the biggest bar street in Shanghai. Hengshan Road is only 2-kilometer long, but there are many relaxed Western-type bars which offer all the favorite tipples from home and show live sports. There are many buildings of European-style architecture of the 1920’s and 1930’s on the both sides of Hengshan Road.
After one-day tour, you must feel tired. You can go back to the hotel and have a good rest to prepare for the tour of next day.
On this second day, you have a full day excursion to the two of the most beautiful towns of Shanghai - Fengjing Town and Songjiang Town.
Fengjing Town Get up early and have a fast breakfast like the first day, then get to the Yuyuan Garden around 08:00 am by Shanghai Taxi. Fengjing Ancient Town is the only large-scale and beautifully preserved ancient water town in Shanghai. Taking a taxi to Fengjing Town from downtown Shanghai costs you around RMB 300. If you are price sensitive, you may go to the Southwest Bus Station for 45 minutes bus ride to Fengjing Town. It is very cheap. Admission fee: RMB 46/person Opening hours: The whole day
Songjiang Town After finishing your exploration in Fengjing Ancient Town, you can go to Songjiang Town, a small town in Songjiang District of Shanghai. It is on the way to get back to the downtown area of Shanghai. West of Songjiang is an old mosque part of which dates to the Yuan dynasty and is said to be one of the oldest Islamic buildings in China. Even today it is still a place of Muslim worship. Add: take Lian-Feng Special Bus and get off at Xinbang Station, then take Song-Xin-Feng Special Bus and get off at Zhaoshang Shichang Station, then walk to Songjiang Town.
