Over three days, this itinerary guides you through a journey into the bustling streets, stunning museums, antique flea markets, and delicious food corners of Puxi in a way that is uncomplicated yet deeply immersive. We'll introduce you to a side of Shanghai that pairs fast-paced city living with an invaluable preservation of history, showcasing the city's unforgettable fusion of East meets West.

Day 1 - Immersing in Heritage and Commerce

We kick-start our Puxi adventure in the world-class Shanghai Museum, where China's ancient art and relics calmly resonate with history. Post the enlightening exhibit exploration, let's step outside to breathe in the hustle-bustle around People’s Square. From the serene backdrop of beautifully arranged flowers to the boisterous dance practices by locals - it's like walking through a live, vibrant culture exhibition, isn't it? Later, a short walk takes us to the radiant shopping heaven, Nanjing Road. Here, under the flashing neon lights, discover every brand imaginable while relishing some local street food.

Day 2 - A Day of Serenity and Street Art

Today, we escape the city roar for some tranquility in Yu Garden. Picture yourself exploring traditional Chinese architecture, sampling some Suzhou-styled snacks, or bargaining with vendors in the adjoining bazaar. Like walking through an intricate painting, right? As the sun descends, we head over to M50 Art District, a thriving hub for the local and international art community. As you weave through the labyrinth of galleries and studios, every street art and installation here tells a story, doesn't it? The day concludes with a night of exploring the cool bars and restaurants in the artsy, relaxing Tianzifang area. Sounds exciting, doesn't it?

Day 3 - Sky-High Views and Flea Market Finds

Our last day in Puxi begins with an invigorating visit to the awe-inspiring skyscrapers at Lujiazui. Just a hop away across the river via a ferry, don't miss the 360-degree panoramic views of Shanghai from the observation decks of Shanghai Tower or World Financial Center. Think of it as a bird's eye view of this mega-city, okay? After lunch, get ready for some souvenir hunting at Dongtai Road Antique Market. Here, you’ll find anything from cultural ephemera to straight-up kitsch. Isn't it like unearthing a treasure, though? Lastly, raise a toast to your fabulous Puxi adventure at the riverfront Bund area while basking in the spectacular evening views.
