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.

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.
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

This is not the cheapest place to drink in Shanghai (you'll end up paying western prices) but everything about it I love. They offer a great range of local and international drinks for an extremely reasonable price. It has an amazing and friendly atmosphere, the first time I went I spent the evening talking to an American couple who had been to the theatre and the second time I went to watch the darts (I'm English living in China and there aren't many places that broadcast the darts). The staff are super friendly, their English is good, and they recommend some great drinks to me that I never would have considered otherwise. If you're in the area I would 100% recommend coming here!
