上海 · 6 foundational guides
Getting into Shanghai: Pudong, Hongqiao, and the train.
PVG and SHA are not interchangeable. The official maglev at Pudong is real; we do not print unverified fares. Visa rules are national.
Getting around Shanghai: metro, the river, a licensed car.
Use the official Shanghai Metro map. We do not print a fare table or last-train times. The Bund is a public walk.
Paying in Shanghai: the same national apps, official fees.
Alipay and WeChat Pay with a foreign card; official 2026 rule is a 3% fee above ¥200 (inclusive waiver at ¥200). Confirm in the app. Last verified: 2026-11-12.
What to eat in Shanghai: dish types, not a venue list.
Xiaolongbao, shengjian, red-braised pork, seasonal hairy crab — described as dish types. We do not invent restaurants.
Shanghai, honestly: the usual first-timer pitfalls.
The wrong airport, a same-day PVG–SHA hop, and a plan that treats Pudong as next door. No invented scare stories.
A first three days in Shanghai (a shape, not a diary).
The Bund and Puxi, a Pudong walk plus a museum, and a neighbourhood or a careful 12306 day trip. No invented restaurants.
