Explore Shanghai in 3 days with a mix of super chill nature strolls and neon-lit city nights 🌆🍃 From lush parks to world-famous landmarks, you’ll get the best of both worlds—plus some pro tips for maximizing your leisure! Top Spots to Visit 1. Shanghai Greenhouse Garden (浦东新区济明路199号, inside Expo Cultural Park): This vibrant oasis is insta-perfect in autumn and ideal for slow walks among rare plants. Open Tues–Sun 9am–9pm; closed Mondays; last entry 8:30pm; entry is ¥98 weekdays and ¥128 for weekend. If you’re visiting late, catch golden hour for plant shots with sunlight filtering in—magic! 2. Century Park (1001 Jinxiu Rd, Pudong): Shanghai’s largest urban park, open 24/7, is your go-to for chill mornings or sunset strolls. Rent a bike for quicker exploration or picnic lakeside under autumn trees. 3. Yu Garden (Main gate on N side of Jiuqu Bridge, Yuyuan Tourism Biz District): This classic Chinese garden (Tues–Sun 9am–4:30pm, last entry 4pm; ¥30) blends picturesque pavilions, winding bridges, and centuries-old architecture for a true “Shanghai time travel.” Arrive early to beat the crowds! 4. The Bund: At night, the riverside absolutely glows. The Oriental Pearl Tower and Lujiazui skyline make the river shimmer—seriously, grab your camera. Top tip: there’s plenty of benches for sitting back and soaking in the show. Getting Around: Metro is fast and cheap, with Century Park and most spots on nearby lines. Didi app is also reliable for door-to-door rides. Food: Try steamed crab at Yu Garden teahouse, or grab street snacks near Nanjing Road. Tons of cafes line the Bund for drinks with a view! Extra Tips: No visa required for most short visits (check country list); autumn is prime for crisp walks and outdoor photos; lots of ATMs for cash. Extra extra: Visit Shanghai Disneyland for a dash of fairytale adventure 💖 #ShanghaiScenes #GardenDays #TheBundViews #NatureCityMix #Tripdotcom
