    Skipping Lujiazui is fine, but if you do go, IFC is a must-visit. Also, I think you've mixed up Wharf's IFS with Sun Hung Kai's IFC. Besides, those other IFSs and Nanjing's IFC can't even hold a candle to Shanghai's IFC in terms of vibrancy. And why skip Xintiandi? The Xintiandi area on Huangpi South Road, part of Middle Huaihai Road, is beautiful, great for strolling, and super accessible by transport. Jing'an Temple shouldn't be a standalone visit; after exploring Yuyuan Road (between Zhongshan Park and Jiangsu Road), take a one-stop subway ride to Jing'an Temple and use it as your starting point. The roughly one-kilometer stretch of West Nanjing Road from Jing'an Temple to Zhangyuan is, without a doubt, the most bustling, fashionable, and stunning commercial district in all of Shanghai. It's also packed with historical buildings like Zhangyuan, the 'Lust, Caution' crossroads, Prada Rong Zhai, the Shanghai Exhibition Center, Jing'an Villas, and Changde Apartments (the prototype for Eileen Chang's apartment in 'Life's Little Pleasures'), to name a few.

      You're dying to visit Shanghai until you actually get here, and then you might just feel like dying from the crowds. As a local who grew up here, I can tell you we don't even go out during holidays.

                  Found a little trick that I hope helps everyone boost their visibility: just go around liking and commenting everywhere, and friends will click to see what you do. Leke Sports & Fitness wishes everyone good health and all the best! (P.S. We specialize in pre-sale discount cards for Leke Sports & Fitness in the Shanghai area.)

                        Anyone still recommending the 'Metropolis' (Da Du Hui) today is truly something else! 👍🏻

                          Taking a taxi and no traffic jams? Wow! I quite like taking taxis; it wasn't congested during the National Day holiday.
