"The Langham is located in Xintiandi, one of the earliest renovated Shangahi neighborhoods. It is full of luxury shops, but the former French Concession which is full of beautiful elm tree lined streets is a twenty minute walk away. The breakfasts are bountiful, the service stellar."

Love Shanghai, but the Virus changed everything!!! I have visited Shanghai at least 10 - 15 times before, but because of the virus - it was not the Shanghai that I was looking to visit and know, but it still was Beautiful!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!

Get a refillable Metro Card at the Peoples Square station; there's a lot to see in Shanghai but you'll need to use the Metro. It's very clean, well run and most cars have signs and verbal announcements in English. And don't forget Suzhou and Qibao!

5/5 - Excellent
