[quote=GUEST11190,46977]Hi,

3 of us are visiting these 2 great cities for the first time and need help on transportation and sight-seeing advice ? So far, I managed to find the followings from guidebooks and need to plan our itinenary but transport could be a deciding factor in our order of places to visit.

Taxi - difficult to get a taxi, time wasted on traffic jams but point to point convenience and get some sight-seeings along the way.

Metro - need to walk to places of visit but faster if there is traffic jam.

Costwise, I believe they are close. My places to cover are:

a) Beijing(2 days) -  Forbidden City, Tiananmen, Temple of Heaven, Beihai Park,  Hutong & Drum Bell, Lamma Temple, Summer Palace, New Olympic Stadiums

b) Shanghai(2 days) - Old Town, Yu Garden, Bund(can walk from Yu Garden ?), Xintiandi, People's Square, Shanghai Museum, Putong - one tower & Ocean Aquarium, French Concession, Jade Buddha Temple & a river cruise.

Any other better places suggestions and advice will be greatly appreciated.[/quote]
