10 Food & Drink in Puxi (Downtown Shanghai) That You Shouldn't Miss

October 12, 2021 Mollie Coke

The largest city in China is also its most cosmopolitan, offering visitors a chance to experience the past, present, and future all at once. The Huangpu River splits Shanghai into two districts: Pudong and Puxi. The Pudong skyline looks like it was ripped from the Jetsons, with the bulbous Oriental Pearl TV and Radio Tower looking a bit like a two headed lollipop. On the Puxi side, you can walk the Bund riverside district to get a taste of old Shanghai.

Blackstone Magic Bar

Inspired by legendary 20th century magician Harry Blackstone Sr., The Blackstone Magic Bar is a brand new concept created by Mr. Anson Chen. It combines elements of magic with innovative mixology, stylish and modern interior design and close-up magic performed by some of the best magicians in Asia.

Reviewed By JiroumiS - Shanghai, China

I'd read about the Blackstone Magic Bar months ago.. but finally made my way there after finding their wechat account and purchasing tickets via wechat. The drinks were good. The show performed by Anson was great! a little short, i could have watched him for an hour more! card tricks, mind reading, vanishing, and more! I understand only some shows are in English while most are performed in chinese. This is a little sad, I'd attend often if the performers were speaking in a language I could understand . . . haha
