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.

A classical garden complete with period style buildings. The Garden was created by Pan Yunduan a Government Officer for his family finishing in 1577.
This 400-years-old garden built in Ming dynasty is an authentically old Chinese style garden with wooden bridges, old style houses, ponds with carps and turtles, mountain-like rock, carved dragons and greenery garden. A temple is nearby that one should visit too.

This place you have to visit 100%, right after Jujiajiao (near by). But you need to choose a day with sunny weather, and it's better to go during the weekdays, cause, in another way, there will be crowded. For whole walking around the park you'll spend at least 4 hours, there are no animals, but a lot of plants, trees, flowers etc. Also, there you can find a lot of installations that imitate ancient chinese life. Take your camera and some snacks, it will be really cool. But for kids, I guess, boring, so, it's better to letf them in the hotel ^_^

We took the metro on line 3 and got off at Shilong Road station. Then it's another 5 min walk to the Botanical garden. The Shanghai Botanical Garden is hugh and is probably one of the largest botanical garden in China. There was a flower expo going on when we visited. Beautiful flowers in full bloom were everywhere. We spent at least half a day here. Advisable to bring a picnic basket, hat/umbrella and lots of water. Wear comfortable shoes. This is probably our favorite botanical garden in China.
