Things to do in Shanghai

My first Hanfu experience! The lavish meal and show were absolutely delightful! We arrived an hour and a half before the show started, but there was quite a wait for makeup. If you have extra time, I recommend arriving early. I made the reservation via WeChat. I sent a message considering the time difference, but the reply was slow. However, I was glad we got to enjoy our meal from the very front row! The outfits were pre-arranged, and while the one I tried on wasn't quite what I imagined, I couldn't change it. There were also accessories like fans and capes, but they were first-come, first-served, so be aware of that! I showed a reference photo for my makeup, but they declined, so I left it up to them! All the staff members were very kind!

The operator was incredibly attentive and always responded super fast! They were so helpful—when we got a bit lost at the drop-off point, they kept updating us and made sure we were okay. Their English is excellent, which is a huge help in China, and they even gave us great tips for the best views on deck. We loved our cruise experience so much that we upgraded to the VIP view deck for an extra 100 RMB and it was absolutely worth it! It came with free tea and biscuits, plus exclusive seating and an amazing view. Thank you so much for making our Huangpu cruise so memorable!

ease of booking on Klook: I can go straight to the park entrance since I purchased my ticket through Klook. I just have to show them my passport since I entered my details upon booking. so make sure to enter your details accurately especially your passport number and name. I purchased the ticket with premier access to Zootopia and it didn’t disappoint. The ticket they will issue already have a QR code, so you won’t have to sign in and register an account when you download the Shanghai Disneyland app. I just used the Disneyland app for map and navigation including attraction wait times. Been a user of Klook and I am very pleased!

I made a dinner reservation for 5pm and I arrived 4pm to watch the sunset. Maybe because it was a Monday, I don't think it was that busy. The food at the restaurant was really good and there was a very big variety. O definitely recommend it!

The garden was ancient and so beautiful. they had preserved that architecture. the old houses had so many beautiful places to take pictures. The guide was so nice and had very good English speaking skills. we had a great time because she was supportive. highly recommended.

so amazing, the 3rd tallest building in the world. this is a great experience ❤️

Legoland is about 60 to 70 km from central Shanghai so plan ahead. Travel time is around 1.5 hours depending on where you are staying. The park is fairly new and the facilities are excellent. We visited as a family of six with kids aged 5, 9, 16, and 17. We have children on the spectrum and the staff were top notch. They really went above and beyond and made our experience very pleasant. The park is also more English friendly compared to many attractions in the city, which made navigating much easier for foreign visitors. It was not very crowded during our visit. If you need a PWD concession ticket it is best to buy onsite rather than in advance. We booked regular tickets via Klook and entry was smooth. We just showed our passports. Food inside is expensive (as expected) but there are many restaurants just outside the park which isn’t too far of a walk. I recommend spending a full day here. There was never a dull moment and we all had a blast!!! 💙💛❤️

This was the best animal park we had ever been to. it was amazing to see that the animals were mostly kept in large free roam areas. Also the animal shows were amazing although free of charge. The paid circus was world class which you should not miss. overall it was worth every penny.

quick redemption. the show was an hour though I wished it could be longer. awesome performance to me and my spouse but it could be boring to my boys. I booked the area A and could have a good view. VIP area mainly booked by the tours. the place was not fully booked especially area C on the weekday we went.
