[quote=ELLYSE ,23848]I assume that you already have the necessary visas, or you've already confirmed that you can get a transit visa on-the-spot when you arrive at the airport?What time is your 1st stopover? It's unclear as to whether you'll be in time to take the Maglev out of the airport. In any case, you seem to have only 4 hours after you get past immigration, baggage claim and customs... you'll need to arrive back at the airport (I presume you're leaving from the same airport? There're 2 airports in Shanghai) about 1.5-2 hours before your next flight, in order to check in. Therefore, I think you won't have enough time on your 1st stopover to get to downtown Shanghai and back. It takes at least 45 mins each way to get to downtown Shanghai. Even if you just go to Pudong and have a look-see, it'll take at least 30 mins each way.On your 2nd stopover, I recommend that you take Hotel Shuttle line C to the Peace Hotel, which's situated at the corner of the Bund and Nanjing Lu. You can sightsee along the Bund then walk down Nanjing Lu pedestrian street all the way to People's Square. Take the metro from People's Square for 1 stop to Huangpi Nanlu metro station (line 1), then walk to Xintiandi which's a collection of restaurants and nightlife places in a collection of preserved historical buildings. The next morning, you can head to Yuyuan Garden if you'd like to see a classical Chinese garden. If not, just stroll around the Yuyuan Bazaar. Don't forget to go to the famous Nanxiang xiaolongbao restaurant around 1030 to enjoy a delicious brunch of Shanghai's most famous culinary special and various Shanghainese dim sum. Be early or else you'll have to wait for ages. After brunch, it'll be time for you to head towards where you need to be going.[/quote]
