Stop for lunch at Xintiandi, a trendy two-block urban renewal area dotted with first-rate restaurants and shops. End the afternoon at The Portman Ritz-Carlton, Shanghai, where the Portman Acrobatic Show wows in the Shanghai Centre Theatre. ➺ learn more about the hotel W W W. R I T z c a R l T o N . c o m In the 1920s, globe-trotting fortune hunters from Europe and beyond turned Shanghai into a bustling, cosmopolitan city with ornate mansions and art deco hotels. The city has now reclaimed this elegant, multinational identity by transforming the once swampy Pudong District and gloomy Bund waterfront into sophisticated hot spots. Shanghai is also challenging Beijing as China’s undisputed arts capital. Since 2000, the city has built 150 museums, like the must-see Shanghai museum with its world-class bronzes and coins, and the Shanghai museum of glass. The European roots of Shanghai also provide a benefit absent from other mainland cities: walkable neighborhoods. Visitors can stroll down Fuzhou Road to see the art deco buildings of the 1930s, or head to the French Concession to enjoy elm-lined streets and shop along Huaihai Road, known as the Champs-Élysées of the city. ➺ discover luXuRY in DoWntoWn ShAnghAi 1 Arrive Spellbound.
