Shanghai is a huge city with a long history and a huge population of 23 million. Today she receives thousands upon thousands of travelers from all over China and all over the world. Her tolerance, warmth, and beauty attract more and more people to visit this graceful, fresh, and vigorous city every day.
Also, Shanghai has been a city of immigrants for centuries since its origin, a melting pot of the old and new. The history of Shanghai can be traced back to the Southern Song Dynasty with its founding in 1267 AD, its fortification in 1553, and finally evolving into a major commercial port in the midst of the Opium Wars in 1843 to 1853 when it was opened to the west in 1843. A British section was created in 1845, quickly followed by French and American missionaries. From 1912 until 1936 these international “concessions” were extremely prosperous and established Shanghai the east’s premier international city of the early 20th century. There are still many reminders of this international past, with the still vibrant French Concession, the beautiful facades of old European buildings overlooking the Bund, and the strong international flavor of the people.
So today when you walk in Shanghai in main districts, you always can feel the tinge of Chinese culture mixed with western culture, and see a variety of characteristic buildings and wonderful scenes in this city left from 19th century: Continue reading

The best time of visiting Shanghai is Spring and Autumn, I should say, usually, it is from March to May in Spring and from September to November in Autumn.
However, should notice that around Tomb-Sweeping Day, e.i. around 3rd to 5th of April, is the season for people outing for tomb-sweeping,the transportation will be in high congestion. Both May 1 and October are the National long holidays,the busiest traveling seasons, there are always thousands of visitors moving around, so it would be smart choice to avoid the times to visit.
