The Rough Guide to Shanghai (Travel Guide) by Rough Guides
The ultimate insider's guide, covering everything from the huge new art galleries of the West Bund to the chic eating places of the renovated Cool Docks. Shanghai is the twenty-first-century city par excellence - the financial centre of the world's new superpower. Expanding wildly in all directions, it's a vibrant place, making waves in everything from contemporary art to cutting-edge architecture. Cutting through the hype, The Rough Guide to Shanghai reveals the best places to shop, from fake markets to backstreet tailors; to sleep, whether you want a quirky hostel, Art Deco cool or a luxury sky scraping suite; and to eat, from destination restaurants to humble dumpling stalls. Day-trips include quaint canal towns, the new Chinese Disneyland and lovely Nanxiang, made newly accessible by the expanding metro network. An updated metro map shows all the new stops, while every hotel, restaurant, bar, club and shop is marked on our easy-to-read, full-colour city maps.Expert authors who are passionate about both writing and travel write Rough Guides. They have in-depth knowledge of the regions they write about, having either visited widely or lived there, and it shows on every page. It's invaluable information, given with humour and insight and with the down-to-earth, honest tone that Rough Guides is known for. Samantha Cook was born in London and has spent her whole life there, with the exception of a few trips around the world. She is a coauthor of The Rough Guide to London and The Rough Guide to Vintage London, among others. Cook has been a part of the Rough Guides team for over ten years.
