Where to stay in Shanghai: best areas
Shanghai is huge, but a dense metro network shrinks the distances. The district you pick decides the feel of your stay and the view from your window. Here are the areas travellers choose most often:
- Huangpu. The core, with the Bund waterfront, Nanjing Road and People's Square. Most convenient for first-timers who want everything close by.
- Pudong. The skyscraper district around Lujiazui, with the best skyline views. Also close to Disneyland and the airport.
- Jing'an. An upscale centre with luxury shopping and the Jing'an Temple. A good pick for a higher standard and great transport.
- Xuhui. The former French Concession, with plane trees, cafés and quiet lanes. The most atmospheric area for a relaxed stay.
- Hongkou. A local district to the north with lower prices and authentic food. A pick for savings close to the centre.
- Changning. A green, residential area by Hongqiao station. Handy for high-speed rail travellers and short stopovers.
