We told our Yoyoor representative what we're looking for: where we can see a lot of architecture that have distinctive 30th Shanghai style and where we can also have some nice food and shopping as we have some last minute shopping to do. That definitely should be Nanjing Road, she told us. Nanjing Road is everything she told us it is, hustling and bustling, great architecture and the perfect place to feel the pulse of morden Shanghai.

The Nan Jing Lu Pedestrian mall is just another place where people will harrass you on the street "You buy a watch, bag?" and the stores are all designed to pull as much money from tourists (both Chinese and foreign) as possible. It at least looks cooler at night...

People were all busy at Nanjing Road with many strolling along the busy street looking for bargain sales. See the different architectural styles from old China to modern influences in the buildings. Enjoy Chinese cuisines or the fastfoods of multinational corporations like KFC and Wendy's. There are a lot to enjoy in Nanjing.

I love to stay in NanJing Road.IT can be called "shopping paradise". Don't care about the price, if you don;t want to buy anything.

You will feel very crowd, chaos, happy..cheeres here. Everyday look like festival.

The street is very long and it packed with tons of huge shopping centres with LOADS of very nice shops and some of which havent got bad prices!!! Shanghai really is like the Asian NYC!!! And Nanjing rd really does add to this !!

We were two women traveling to China for buisness. We were told by our consierge to go here for shopping. We were approached continually by beggars and people wantingto sell you things. The cabs only stopped for men and we were uncomfortable here

Lots of shops for every ones liking. Lots of bargaining is necessary. Lots of places to eat and drink. Nice busy place. Do not forget to visit this area at night if you can to see the neon lights which are out of this world. Very colourful and imagimnative.
