Day 2 6:00

Catch Shanghai at its most beautiful with a morning run along the Bund. As one of the most compelling boardwalks anywhere in the world, it provides the perfect illustration of serentity and modern development. To see Shanghai’s skyline at its best – and avoid the hordes of tourists – get off at Yangshupu Road Metro Station (Line 4) at Exit 3 and begin running west from there.

Day 2 11:00

Keep yourself armed for any unexpected changes in Shanghai’s generally mild weather with a light knit and umbrella.

Day 2 12:00

For lunch and shelter – should you need it, from the rain – head to one of Shanghai’s trendiest pizza lounges, Mercato. Illuminated by the glow of a wood-burning oven, this gorgeous space is a warm and inviting den serving the finest Italian cuisine.

Day 2 17:00

Often referred to as ‘Paris of the Orient’, the French Concession is a charismatic district filled with quaint boutiques and coffee shops that sit under a canopy of beautiful roadside trees. It boasts plenty of history so is perfect for long, meandering walks. Perfect for status updates, photo albums and ‘blink and you’ll miss it’ photo opportunities, the tree-lined streets are filled with old French colonial housing juxtaposed with modern designer shops and cafes.

Day 2 23:00

Shanghai really comes to life when the sun goes down. Looking for a quirky watering hole to unwind? Where else better than newly opened nightclub Le Baron, the China-based offshoot to street artist Andre Saraiva’s iconic chain of clubs in Tokyo, Paris and New York.
