I am planning to go to Shanghai next year March for 2 weeks. 1. Can anyone tell me the weather in March? 2. Also how is the commute in Shanghai? 3. What are the fares? bus? Train? 4. What is the best way to get to a hotel near the Bund? (planning to stay around the bund area) Any suggestion as far as the hotel.
Thanks

It is windy and still a bit cold. About 10-15C. I have been there this March and I wear Long t shirt and a coat. Yes, it is fine. Bus fare is usually 2RMB. Subway is 3RMB and above. Get a hotel in Nanjing East Road is better. The bund is within walking distance and can be reached by Subway Line 2.

Hi,Daphne. These two hotels are not far from each other, therefore no big difference. Here is my advice on your trip: D1: Chenghuang Miao and the old street, Yuyuan Garden, the Bund at night, Nanjinglu Walking Street D2: Oriental Pearl TV Tower (in a fine morning), buildings along the Bund, D3: Zhujiajiao water village, Shanghai Xintiandi Hope this helps :)

On your first two days, you can go to the bund to see the beautiful Huangpu River, or if you like, take a cruise at the Huangpu River; or you can shop in Nanjing Road, visit Zhujiajiao, a famous watertown near Shanghai, is also a good idea.
There are many hotels in Shanghai that have different stars and locations, can you just tell what is your demand for a hotel? Environment? Stars? Location, Costs? or something else?
well.i guess u can take a sightseeing trip around shanghai on the first day,and u can enjoy the incredible nightlife in the night..on the second day u can go to the water villlage for relaxation...about hotels.guess u can go stay in JJinn which has many chain hotels in Shanghai...have more questions?drop me a line at michaelxmchan@hotmail.com

You can first take Airport Busline 6 or Maglev to Longyang Station and then take Metro Line 2 to East Nanjing Road. Airport Bus Fee is CNY14 while Maglev is CNY 50 for an ordinary single trip.

Hi, here is just my personal view: you can visit water village (e.g Zhou Zhuang). with a good tourist guide, you can learn certain interesting chinese history stories. but be aware that it's usually crowded at weekend. some loactions worth seening: Lu Jia Zui, it's place where many skyscrapers stand with a nice park. visit it at daytime Bund, resently it's closed for being under reconstruction. Actually you can have an overview of Bund from Bing Jiang Da Dao (a road by Huang Pu river) at Lu Jia Zui. The road is close to Oriental Peral TV Tower. Night piece is recommended. Xin Tian Di. it's close to Huang Pi south road station of subway line 1. Yu Yuan. A place for shopping/ traditional chinese food. Su Zhou and Hang Zhou: two very traditional city.Su Zhou is famous for its traditional gardenging. Hang Zhou has a beautiful lake. You can pick one if you don't have too much time.
Aug. 21,2009 22:18 Ms.Jolin(Shanghai) replied:
Hello there, If you want to visit a water village and on a press timetable, Zhujiajiao is a good choice. It is wonderful for you to feel a typical water town in south China. More important, it is nearer than Zhou Zhuang.
Aug. 26,2009 21:41 Ms.snackaroo(Singapore) replied:
i have heard lots of reviews on zhou zhuang (water village). you got to go alight at a train station and buy tickets from there. i just cannot remember which station is that. i think is the shanghai sports stadium or something like that.
anyway my friends who went said that it was nothing much. do not have to stay over there cos it is quite commercialised.
for shopping, go qi pu lu and ke ji guan if you can bargain (see reply to mr deepak). if you are after the topshop kind of stuff, you can go over to ren ming guang chang, nanjing lu, lu jia zui (see rely to mr david)
you should really visit nanjing lu and the bund at night. it's really beautiful.
if you like karaoke, go over hao le di. the overnight singing session was pretty cheap! i remember i paid 100 rmb for 12am till 6am. but no drinks and food. you got to buy your own food/drinks and bring it in.
the pudong side is pretty nice too. but i didnt went over often so i can't remember the name of the train stations i alighted at.
if you have time, you can buy train tickets at shanghai railway station and travel over to hangzhou or suzhou. it takes only 1 hour. but nothing much to see over there. i think shanghai is more exciting!
hope you have fun in shanghai!

Hello there,
If you want to visit a water village and on a press timetable, Zhujiajiao is a good choice. It is wonderful for you to feel a typical water town in south China. More important, it is nearer than Zhou Zhuang.

i have heard lots of reviews on zhou zhuang (water village). you got to go alight at a train station and buy tickets from there. i just cannot remember which station is that. i think is the shanghai sports stadium or something like that.
anyway my friends who went said that it was nothing much. do not have to stay over there cos it is quite commercialised.
for shopping, go qi pu lu and ke ji guan if you can bargain (see reply to mr deepak). if you are after the topshop kind of stuff, you can go over to ren ming guang chang, nanjing lu, lu jia zui (see rely to mr david)
you should really visit nanjing lu and the bund at night. it's really beautiful.
if you like karaoke, go over hao le di. the overnight singing session was pretty cheap! i remember i paid 100 rmb for 12am till 6am. but no drinks and food. you got to buy your own food/drinks and bring it in.
the pudong side is pretty nice too. but i didnt went over often so i can't remember the name of the train stations i alighted at.
if you have time, you can buy train tickets at shanghai railway station and travel over to hangzhou or suzhou. it takes only 1 hour. but nothing much to see over there. i think shanghai is more exciting!
hope you have fun in shanghai!
