Time Out Shanghai

Shanghai - China's largest and wealthiest city - is in the midst of a boom of mind-blowing proportions. Change isn't just in the air - it is right in front of your eyes, and clattering in your ears. As China's 21st-century showpiece rises rapidly from the bulldozed rubble of yesteryear, Shanghai's cutting-edge buildings, sky-piercing superstructures, vast bridges and shiny malls have become the city's new symbols. With its new dynamism in art and design, and an explosion of glitzy bars and restaurants, there has never been a better time to visit Asia's hottest city. *Sightseeing in Shanghai *Shanghai hotels *Shanghai restaurants *Shanghai bars *Shanghai shops *Shanghai maps
