Shanghai, a beautiful city during the day, becomes even more wonderful at night. At the end of the day,
both the older part of the city around the Bund and the more modern buildings in Pudong are full of colourful
bright lights. The buildings, both new and old, look completely different and very exciting.
If you look across the Huangpu River, you can see the brilliant Oriental Pearl TV Tower and the Jinmao
Tower. Take a boat along the river and you can see the amazing night life on the Bund. There are more than
30 tour boats, including ancient dragon boats in the Ming and Qing styles and boats made in the Shikumen
style. You will never forget this unusual sightseeing experience.
If you prefer walking in the streets, try the famous Nanjing Road Pedestrian Street. There are busy shops
and cafes and you will see thousands of local people enjoying themselves. Most of the shops close at 10 pm.
but at that time, tea houses are still open. In fact, some of them are open 24 hours a day. Karaoke bars and
coffee houses are also popular nightlife places where you can meet friends and make new ones.
If you are in Shanghai for the first time, make sure you also visit Xintiandi, a very popular area where you
can see buildings in Western and Chinese style side by side. Most of the buildings are modern inside and
contain galleries, fashion shops, restaurants and coffee houses. Open air bars are also popular here.
Xintiandi is a great place for young people, but it may be a little noisy for older visitors! A quieter place to
visit is Park 97, near the west gate of Fuxing Park in Luwan District. Park 97 opened in 1997 and you can
find clubs and international restaurants like Baci where you can get Italian food and Tokyo Joe's a Japanese
restaurant.
