Before you embark on your journey from Shanghai and fly halfway around the world, be sure to bookmark this ultimate 48-hour Shanghai experience!

Sisters, big news! The world's longest air route, taking you directly to Argentina on the other side of the world, is now departing from our very city of Shanghai! 🇨🇳✈️🇦🇷 Before embarking on your epic South American journey, why not experience the boundless charm of this departure city with a condensed Citywalk? Keep this comprehensive guide handy to ensure your trip is a resounding success right from your doorstep! 🌃 【Classic Landmarks, Capture the Shanghai Skyline】 * The Bund: A must-see! We recommend starting from Waibaidu Bridge and strolling along the collection of international architecture to the Jinling East Road Ferry Terminal. For just 2 yuan, you can cross the Huangpu River by ferry and witness the magnificent dialogue between classical and modern architecture on both banks. It's even more dazzling when illuminated at night. * Lujiazui Three-Piece Set: The best choice for panoramic views. Enjoy breathtaking views from the 118th-floor observation deck of the Shanghai Tower, experience the thrill of "walking in the clouds" on the 88th floor of the Jin Mao Tower, or choose the transparent skywalk of the Oriental Pearl Tower. Remember to find the perfect angle on the Lujiazui Circular Pedestrian Bridge for a creative photo with the three-piece set! * Yu Garden: Wander through the Ming and Qing dynasty buildings with their upturned eaves and feel the vibrant atmosphere of the old city. Don't forget to visit the Nine-Turn Bridge and the Lakeside Pavilion; they're especially charming when the lanterns are lit at night. 🎨 【Artistic Style, Touching the Pulse of the City】 * West Bund Art Museum Boulevard: The Long Museum, West Bund Art Museum, Yuz Museum… built along the Huangpu River, this is a paradise for art lovers. After viewing exhibitions, enjoy a bike ride or stroll along the riverside promenade for a truly immersive experience. * Wukang Road-Anfu Road Area: A chic and sophisticated atmosphere under the plane trees. Starting from the iconic Wukang Building, explore designer boutiques, specialty cafes, and bakeries. This area is both a historical district and a trendsetter. * Shanghai Museum/Pudong Art Museum: If time permits, the Shanghai Museum's bronze and calligraphy/painting collections are top-notch; the Pudong Art Museum (MAP), with its modern architectural design and high-quality exhibitions, has become a rising art landmark. 🍜 【A Taste of Shanghai: The Vibrant Atmosphere of the Alleyways】 * Breakfast: Be sure to experience the "Four Heavenly Kings"—flatbread, fried dough sticks, glutinous rice cakes, and soy milk. Recommended options include "Chuan Cheng Fan Tuan" or the time-honored "Healthy Night Market Flatbread and Fried Dough Sticks." * Local Cuisine: Try the classic, richly flavored dishes. The stir-fried shrimp at Lao Zhengxing Restaurant, the braised pork at Lanxin Restaurant, and the tomato and egg stir-fried beef at Xiaoping Restaurant are all authentic choices. * Snacks & Coffee: Buy butterfly pastries at the "International Hotel" and queue for fresh meat mooncakes at "Guangming Village." Coffee lovers must explore the numerous independent coffee shops, especially concentrated in the Yongkang Road and Yuyuan Road area. 🛍 【Travel Tips & Flight Surprise】 * Transportation: The Metro app allows seamless subway access. Taxis are also readily available between city attractions. * Accommodation: For convenience, choose hotels near Nanjing Road or People's Square; for a more romantic atmosphere, stay in boutique hotels in the Bund or former French Concession areas. * Flight Surprise: China Eastern Airlines MU745 departs from Pudong Airport every Monday and Thursday at 2:00 AM. This means you can enjoy the Bund's night view the night before your flight, then leisurely head to the airport, completing a splendid connection from the Oriental Pearl Tower to the other side of the world! From the retro architecture of the Bund to the futuristic Lujiazui; from the warmth of a breakfast in a lane house to the tranquility of an art museum… Shanghai's charm lies in this extreme contrast and fusion. Packing your bags here before embarking on your next adventure is perhaps the perfect way to travel. Get ready, set off from Shanghai, and let the world be your next destination! 💕
