    Travel tips

    Passengers arriving at Pudong International Airport and Hongqiao Airport will find a plethora of facilities and amenities to use before continuing their journey into the city centre. Indulge in an extensive selection of culinary delights at the diverse range of restaurants or enjoy some light shopping at the boutique stores situated within the airport. Baggage storage, tourist information booths, ATMs, and currency exchange services are also available, along with specific services tailored to meet the needs of passengers who require special assistance.

    Choosing your airport in Shanghai

    For passengers visiting during peak seasons, especially in the summer and autumn months, Pudong Airport offers a more tranquil experience when arriving or departing. These busy times are marked by numerous holidays and festivals, such as the Mid-Autumn Festival and National Day, which can lead to larger crowds at Hongqiao Airport. As a result, passengers arriving at Pudong may encounter shorter wait times at check-in, security, and immigration, contributing to a more enjoyable travel experience.

    If you're arriving or departing from Shanghai during the early morning hours, Hongqiao Airport might be a more convenient choice. Situated just about 25 minutes from downtown, it is ideal for those with early flights or those arriving late at night. Passengers staying in central Shanghai will benefit from the shorter travel time, allowing for additional rest before their trip.

    Taxis are the most convenient means of transportation to downtown from Pudong Airport, taking roughly 45 minutes. Another alternative is to use Shanghai's rail service, which will take you to the city centre in around 35 minutes. The Airport MRT is also an option because it transports passengers to numerous Shanghai destinations in less than an hour.

    Those arriving at Hongqiao Airport will find taxis to be the most convenient option, as they can take you to downtown Shanghai in just 30 minutes. Another convenient option is the Shanghai Metro Line 10, which also takes approximately 30 minutes to reach major stations like Xujiahui and People’s Square.

    The Bund is an essential stop, famous as a "gallery of international architecture." Along this waterfront promenade, visitors can admire 27 historic buildings in diverse styles like Gothic, Baroque, and Art Deco, including prominent sites such as The Peace Hotel, The Customs House, and the HSBC Building. It's an excellent spot for photography, offering a refreshing atmosphere and a striking visual contrast between the historical charm of old Shanghai and the modern skyline. Visitors can enjoy the historical ambience during the day or the dramatic, illuminated light display after sunset. To experience the most spectacular view of the evening skyline, a night cruise on the Huangpu River is highly recommended.

    Shanghai Natural History Museum offers an extensive exploration of life's evolution and the natural world. Spanning five floors and housing over 290,000 specimens, the museum journey often begins on the second floor with the "Mysterious Beginnings" exhibit, which includes 4D theatres focused on the origins of the universe and life. Moving to the first floor, visitors encounter "The River of Life," a significant display featuring animal specimens, fossils, and skeleton models, with a notable emphasis on dinosaurs and other ancient giant creatures. The visit concludes on the lower levels, where the basement hosts exhibitions covering evolution, ecological diversity, and Earth's geological history. This section also showcases a collection of minerals and gemstones and a specific exhibit on the natural history of Shanghai.

    The Rockbund Art Museum stands out as a leading venue for contemporary art in Shanghai. It presents dynamic exhibitions that feature innovative, convention-challenging practices by both Chinese and international artists.

Open Tuesday to Sunday, the Rockbund Art Museum aims to do more than simply exhibit art; it actively encourages dialogue between art and society.

Taian Table , a highly acclaimed Shanghai dining destination, is celebrated for its imaginative, multi-course tasting menus presented in an intimate atmosphere. A distinctive feature is its open kitchen, which allows diners to watch the chefs skillfully marry Western culinary methods with vibrant Pan-Asian flavours. The menu highlights include the complex oceanic notes of the Oyster La Bourriche No. 2 with wakame and yoghurt, the rich umami of the Chilled Soba with sea urchin, the harmonious blend in the Kanpachi with watermelon and lardo "snow," and the refined, Korean-influenced Ibérico Pluma Pork with pear kimchi. If you prefer to dine with the Bund in the backdrop, Mr & Mrs Bund , founded by the acclaimed chef Paul Pairet, is a renowned destination offering French brasserie cuisine with a distinctive, playful yet refined style. The menu is celebrated for several dishes that showcase this unique culinary approach. A standout is the Long Short Rib Teriyaki, which masterfully blends French technique with an unexpected Asian-inspired glaze, resulting in a dish with intense, savoury flavour and irresistible tenderness. The Veal Chop is another highlight, expertly prepared to emphasise its natural richness and succulence, and typically served with classic French accompaniments. For those desiring a deeply satisfying vegetarian option, the Mushrooms Essential Garlic is a must-try. This dish features an earthy, aromatic medley of fungi, intensely fragrant with garlic, demonstrating Pairet's ability to elevate simple ingredients.

    Restaurant menus may change seasonally. For the most up-to-date menu, please visit the restaurant’s website or contact them directly.
