Shanghai: Port city reaching for the sky
Ultra futuristic metropolis? Or a city steeped in colonial and local history?
Shanghai is a heady blend of both. The ultimate expression of rapid change in
China, this is a town that feels as if it’s in perpetual motion. Stroll along the
majestic Bund and you’ll be wowed by the traditional buildings on one side of the
Huangpu River and the ever-evolving cluster of towers on the other.
Wander through the French Concession for a taste of the city as it once was, and
be sure to dine on arguably the best food this massive country has to offer.
China
General knowledge
Country overview
At the 2008 Olympic Games in Beijing, China presented itself as an emerging
country where old traditions coexist alongside astounding new technology and
architecture. China has an immense wealth of cultural treasures. Forty-seven of the
sites on the UNESCO World Heritage List are in China, and these include the
Great Wall, the Forbidden City and the Terracotta Army of Xi’an. In addition to
these, there are Natural World Heritage sites, including the Sichuan Giant Panda
Sanctuaries and the protected area of the Three Parallel Rivers, which
encompasses the upper reaches of the Yangtze (Jinsha), the Lancang (Mekong)
and the Nujiang (Salween) in Yunnan.
The capital city is Beijing, which is also where the central government is based.
China is divided into 22 provinces, five autonomous regions, four direct-controlled
municipalities (Beijing, Shanghai, Tianjin and Chongqing) and two special
administrative regions (Hong Kong and Macau).
Geography
In terms of area, China is the world’s fourth largest country, after the Russian
Federation, Canada and the United States. With a population of around 1.38
billion, it is the most populous country in the world – China accounts for about 20
percent of the global population.
China is bordered to the north by Kazakhstan, Mongolia and Russia; to the east by
North Korea, the Yellow Sea and the East China Sea (with Macau on the
southeast coast); to the south by Vietnam, Laos, Myanmar, India, Bhutan and
Nepal; and to the west by Pakistan, India, Afghanistan, Kyrgyzstan and Tajikistan.
China has a varied terrain, which ranges from high plateaus in the west, at an
altitude of over 8000 meters, to flatlands in the east. Mountains account for around
one-third of the land. The most notable high mountain ranges are the Himalayas,
the Pamir Mountains and the Kunlun Mountains. The Himalayas are home to ten of
the fourteen mountains in the world that have an altitude of 8000 meters or higher.
One of these is Mount Everest, which, at 8848 meters, is the world’s highest
mountain.
China’s most notable rivers are the Yangtze River, the Yellow River, the Xi Jiang
and the Mekong.
At the base of the Tian Shan Mountains is the Turpan Depression or Basin. This is
the area of China with the lowest elevation. It is 154 m (508 ft.) below sea level at
the lowest point.

Travel etiquette
How to fit in
Social Conventions
LH.com/travelguide Shanghai 03/15Travel Guide
Shanghai
04
It is recommended that vacationers conduct themselves with appropriately polite
manners – although Chinese people tend to be broad-minded in the event that
cultural differences cause misunderstandings. In business settings, it is worth
finding out exactly what is appropriate (for example, in terms of attire and the type
of car, hotel and restaurant chosen for business dinners). After all, these factors do
play a significant role when evaluating the importance and credibility of a business
partner. Generally, Chinese people are friendly but reserved. It is best to err on the
side of politeness rather than of familiarity. Critical comments about China’s
political leadership should avoided, as should comments concerning Taiwan.
The full title of the country is ‘The People’s Republic of China’, and this should be
used in all formal communications.
People greet one another with a handshake. Foreign guests are sometimes
welcomed with applause – it is customary to applaud in response.
In China, the family name comes first. If you are invited out socially, it is polite to
arrive a little early and bring a little gift with you, such as fruit, chocolates or a
souvenir from your home country. Stamps are also a popular gift. If you are invited
to the home of family or friends, money may be left for the children. It is customary
to offer a reciprocal invitation.
During mealtimes, diners raise their glasses to one another as each course is
served. Formal, ceremonious meals have twelve courses. Offense is not taken if a
guest only eats a little, but a polite guest will have a taste of every course that is
served. You should leave a little on your plate and in your glass because
otherwise, your plate or glass will immediately be refilled. If you are invited to a
traditional Chinese celebration, it is advisable to find out what kind of gift is
traditionally given to the host.
If you are traveling without a Chinese-speaking guide, it is a good idea to always
have the address of your hotel and any other destinations on hand, in Chinese
characters. Alternatively, you could mark them clearly on a map. This is because
there may not always be someone nearby who speaks English.
Conservative casual wear is appropriate attire, and revealing clothing should be
avoided. At some social occasions and some restaurants, formal clothing will be
expected.
Smoking is generally permitted, and no-smoking zones are marked.
For most service professions, tipping is not commonplace in China. In areas with
large amounts of tourism, taxi drivers and waiting staff are often given 10 percent;
hotel room service staff are often tipped 2-3 ¥ and tour guides often receive around
1 US dollar per person. If you are traveling with a group, one member of the group
should collect up all the money and present it to the tour guide in an envelope.
Photography
Photography is prohibited at airports and inside temples. It is also best to avoid
taking photos of military installations or government buildings unless you have
been granted official permission.
You should not take photos of unknown people without their explicit consent. This
applies to work environments (e.g., people who work outdoors) and to leisure
settings (e.g., people playing sports).

Food & Drink
All water used for drinking, brushing teeth or freezing should first be boiled or
otherwise sterilised. Bottled water, widely and cheaply available, is the most
advisable way of getting around this. Be especially careful when eating at small
street-side stalls or restaurants where standards of hygiene may not be high. Pork,
salad, scallops, snails and mayonnaise may carry increased risk. Vegetables
should be cooked and fruit peeled.
Other Risks
Vaccinations against tuberculosis and Japanese encephalitis are sometimes
advised. Bilharzia (schistosomiasis) is endemic in the central Yangtze river basin.
Avoid swimming and paddling in fresh water. Hepatitis E is prevalent in
northeastern and northwestern China and hepatitis B is highly endemic. Sporadic
outbreaks of avian influenza (bird flu) have resulted in a small number of human
deaths. Rabies is present. If bitten, medical advice should be sought immediately.
There are occasional outbreaks of dengue fever. In 2010 China lifted its
restrictions preventing HIV-infected visitors from travelling there.

Telephone
International direct dialing is possible at large hotels, but these calls are
expensive. In large cities, there are card-operated public pay phones and phone
booths that can be used to make cheap international calls. To make calls
significantly cheaper, it is advisable to purchase an IC card for public phones or an
IP card (prepaid) for use with all other telephones. The cards can be purchased at
the airport and at a variety of convenience stores.

Mobile Telephone
GSM 900 signal for sending and receiving is available in Beijing, Guangzhou
(Canton) and Shanghai, as well as in most of the other urban regions in the east
and southeast, including Chengdu and Chongqing. If you want to make frequent
use of your mobile phone while in China, you should buy a SIM card from a local
network provider when you arrive in the country, or have one sent to you prior to
your visit.
Internet
Internet cafés can be found in larger towns and cities, and Internet access via Wi-Fi
is being offered by an increasing number of hotels and restaurants.
Free Internet access via Wi-Fi is possible in many busy tourist spots, too. When
using public Wi-Fi networks, it is a wise precaution to ensure encryption of all
passwords, credit card details and banking credentials entered. Use of a VPN app
or security software to check the safety of a hotspot is recommended.

Top 10 sights in Shanghai
The Bund (Weitan)
The centre of the one-time ‘International Settlement’. Western traders first set up
businesses in the city here and the area, on the banks of the Huangpu, is stunning.
Fin de siècle banks and merchant houses provide a stunning contrast to nearby
Pudong’s skyscrapers.

Shanghai
China
French Concession
Between 1849 and 1943, this approximately ten-square-kilometer area of western
Huangpu was home to French incomers and other foreigners, most of them
Russians. Trading in tea, porcelain and silk, they grew wealthy and built
themselves magnificent villas, created parks and tree-lined avenues. The buildings
of that period still remain, even if the building boom and lively business approach
typical of Shanghai have clearly left their traces. During the day, there are a
number of museums to visit, including the Shanghai Arts and Crafts Museum. In
the evening, The French Concession is regarded as the city’s top district for a night
out.

… Bund and French Concession
Katja Hentschel
Tower blocks and woks, luxury and lifestyle – nowhere is China as modern,
international and fashionable as it is in Shanghai. Mega metropolis that it is, and
home to nearly 23 million people, Shanghai still has an agreeably “small” feel to it.
Almost everything – clubbing, shopping, dining – is done between the Bund and
the French concession. The Bund with its restored colonial stately buildings along
Huangpu River was once a colonial enclave, named a “concession,” which the
British wrested from the Chinese after the Opium Wars of the mid-19th
century.Soon after, the French arrived and settled a little further inland, in the
French Concession, which still preserves an atmosphere of almost cozy village
intimacy. Beneath its green plane trees, the old and the new China live together in
a fascinating symbiosis.
Chai Living
The creature comforts of a five-star hotel, but way more original – namely right next
door to 2000 Chinese neighbors, who hang out their laundry to dry in the corridor,
and in the early evening get together in the courtyard to dance or do tai-chi. These
serviced apartments boasting every conceivable convenience are located in a
spectacular apartment house in the Art Deco style of the 1930s. Each apartment
has large panorama windows with a fantastic view of the skyline and is just a five-
minute walk from the Bund. Double rooms with breakfast start at 130 euros.

The area around Tiantong Road metro station is certainly not one of the top spots

Wuchang Road and Jiangxi Road form the city’s longest remaining authentic

gastronomic culture from looming extinction with chopsticks and spoons. The
Malatang Hotpot on 178 Jiangxi Road, in particular, deserves a recommendation.
