OverviewThis opening fold-out contains a general map of Shanghai to help you visualize the 6 large districts explored in this guide, plus a wealth of practical information, handy tips and detailed maps to enable you to get the swing of the city. Discover Shanghai through 6 districts and 6 maps Bund (Waitan)/ Nanjing Donglu Renmin Guangchang/ Nanjing Xilu/ Zhabei Old Town (Nanshi) Huaihai Lu/ Fuxing Lu/ Xujiahui Hongkou Pudong For each district there is a double-page of addresses (restaurants -- listed in ascending order of price -- cafe s, bars, tearooms, music venues and stores) followed by a fold-out map for the relevant area with the essential places to see (indicated on the map by a star *). These places are by no means all that Shanghai has to offer but to us they are unmissable. The grid-referencing system (A B2) makes it easy for you to pinpoint addresses quickly on the map. Transportation and hotels in Shanghai The last fold-out consists of a transportation map and 4 pages of practical information that include a selection of hotels. A thematic index lists all the sites and addresses featured in this guide.
