You\u2019ll see the famous Terracotta Warriors in Xi\u2019an, giant pandas in Chengdu, and taste Shanghai\u2019s night markets.<\/em><\/p>\n\n\n\n

Wisdom Bay Night Market<\/h3>\n\n\n\n
\"Chinese<\/figure>\n\n\n\n

<\/p>\n\n\n\n

Close to the Shanghai Night Market but feeling many moons away, the Wisdom Bay Night Market is one of the largest trunk markets in not only Shanghai, but in all of China. It begins around suppertime on the weekends and rocks into the night. Try to visit in the summer so you can attend the market\u2019s annual music festival.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

Tianzifang<\/h3>\n\n\n\n
\"Two<\/figure>\n\n\n\n

<\/p>\n\n\n\n

It\u2019s Shanghai\u2019s SOHO and you could spend your whole trip here. <\/p>\n\n\n\n

Tianzifang is a 24-hour market and is an absolutely perfect place to forget the clock exists. Located in the Old French Quarter, original architecture and a lack of significant redevelopment gives the market an old-school feel. <\/p>\n\n\n\n

This is the kind of market you visit to wander without worry. Hungry? Cheap eats are there, including some of the most popular Chinese food. Need to rest your legs? Cafes and bars invite you to duck in for a spell. Artisans sling their creations while vendors hawk their tchotchkes that you can take home as souvenirs. <\/p>\n\n\n\n

And best of all? It\u2019s a very tourist-friendly area and close to Xintiandi; an ideal night market experience for the first time visitor to Shanghai.  <\/p>\n\n\n\n

Tongbei Road Street Market<\/h3>\n\n\n\n
\"Fresh<\/figure>\n\n\n\n

<\/p>\n\n\n\n

There\u2019s something fishy about Shanghai\u2019s Yangpu district \u2014 but that\u2019s a good thing. The Tongbei Road Street Market sees schools of hungry mouths swim over for a feeding frenzy. <\/p>\n\n\n\n

We\u2019re not saying that those who prefer the harvest from the earth will be left hungry, but if you\u2019re coming to Tongbei Road to sample some of the most popular Chinese food, you\u2019ll want it scooped straight from the ocean. The many seafood stalls (some selling fresh catches that you won\u2019t find much outside of Shanghai) will leave you satisfied.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

Dongchang Road Night Market<\/h3>\n\n\n\n
\"Chinese<\/figure>\n\n\n\n

<\/p>\n\n\n\n

Were all of your well-traveled friends raving about Linfeng Road Night Market, only for you to find out it\u2019s since shut down? We have your alternative. <\/p>\n\n\n\n

Dongchang Road Night Market has always held its own when comparing apples to apples (or dumplings to dumplings, we suppose) with Linfeng. Locals stock it with lots of bric-a-brac and women\u2019s fashion accessories. <\/p>\n\n\n\n

But you\u2019re here for the food.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

The cooked-on-site snacks are the main attraction: don\u2019t be shocked to find ci fan<\/em> (breakfast rice rolls), sheng jian<\/em> (steamed buns), and Chinese-style fried chicken served up for only a few Yuan. There’s a reason these are some of the most popular Chinese foods. <\/p>\n\n\n\n

Changli Road Street Food Market<\/h3>\n\n\n\n
\"Lanterns<\/figure>\n\n\n\n

<\/p>\n\n\n\n

Picture it: it\u2019s been a long day. You\u2019ve wandered the Yu Garden under the Shanghai sun. You\u2019ve gone to the top of the Shanghai Tower. You\u2019ve walked Nanjinglu Street twice. <\/p>\n\n\n\n

But you\u2019re not going to rest your tired soles. You\u2019re going to feed your foodie soul at the Changli Road Street Food Market. <\/p>\n\n\n\n

The Pudong District\u2019s most popular market has a two-decade history of leaving stomachs full, smiles wide, and diners satisfied. It\u2019s open into the night, though some visitors have seen it close well before the witching hour. Regardless, it\u2019s a local haunt where you can walk around with seafood kebabs and chicken legs while you pursue the few nick-nack tables in between the food stalls.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

Fengjing Road Night Market at the BFC<\/h3>\n\n\n\n
\"Buildings<\/figure>\n\n\n\n

<\/p>\n\n\n\n

While you should certainly explore the origins of Shanghai like its 13th century Old Town, you shouldn\u2019t neglect the city\u2019s new directions. The Bund Finance Center is a brand new complex on Shanghai\u2019s waterfront and it\u2019s well-worth your time.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

As an epicenter of culture, you could spend from 10 in the morning until 10 at night exploring what the BFC has to offer. The weekend market is obviously a must \u2013 live DJ sets, street art, and 40 different F&B stalls equal a great Saturday night \u2013 but if you\u2019re lucky enough to find yourself in Shanghai during the holiday season, its sparkling Christmas market is quite the magical experience.<\/p>\n\n\n\n
