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.

Otherwise known as the Shanghai Hangyu Kepu Centre. This place was a BIG surprise for me. I had low expectations, but was surprised at how well done and detailed this museum was. The indoor displays were excellent and very modern, with some interactive stations as well. The flight simulators were pricey, but entrance fee was very low. I really enjoyed the few hour I spent here and I learnt a lot
