The 10 Best Gift & Specialty Shops in Former French Concession, Shanghai Region
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.

Located in Shanghai's central Xu Hui district. Wan Ling Tea House is conveniently accessible from central sites and metro lines 1, 9 and 11 at Xu Jia Hui station (exits 13 or 15) or lines 10 and 11 at Jiao Tong University (exit 1). Offering a wide selection of Chinese tea wares and Chinese teas, including organic tea. Wan Ling carefully selects all our teas personally on her regular sourcing trips around China. Our Yuqing road tea house is a great place to relax. We have a public tea room and also a private tea space which is available to hire and is ideal for groups of 2-16. We run a series of customised experiences including tea tastings and tea art demonstrations. Whether you are just visiting for a short trip and would like a 1-2 hour tea tasting or tea ceremony demonstration, or would like to enrol on a longer tea education programme Wan Ling Tea House is a great choice. Friendly English language service.

Wanling's Teahouse is a hidden gem, tucked away in the leafy Xuhui district of Shanghai (very close to the beautiful French Concession area too) and yet only a short walk from metro stations on either line 1 or 9. Wan Ling will treat you to an authentic gongfu tea ceremony and you will taste some Chinese teas you have never heard of. Her stories of where and how they are produced are fascinating, and it is worth taking a notebook! Wan Ling's subtle and intuitive approach leaves you feeling informed without being pressured, and her spoken English is fluent. I fully recommend a visit.
