Nanjing road is the earliest commercial street in Shanghai after opening of Shanghai as a commercial port. It stretches 5.5km from the Bund in the east to Yan’an East Road in the west and across Jing’an and Huangpu districts. It is divided into east and west sections by Middle Tibet Road. Therefore, when it comes to Nanjing Road, people refer to the two of the top ten commercial centers in Shanghai: one is Nanjing East Road and another is Nanjing West Road. Nanjing East Road (including Nanjing Road Pedestrian Street) is mainly a fair-price commercial and tourist area; Meanwhile, Nanjing West Road (including Jing’an temple area) is the most expensive fashion commercial block in Shanghai with the highest rent of shops, mainly for luxury goods and high-end consumer groups.

When is the best time to visit?
The best time to visit Nanjing Road is Spring and Autumn, because weather is pleasant during these months, which is conducive for people to stroll and take photos.
Tips: Visitors had better avoid the official holiday in China, because many Chinese citizens choose to travel on official holidays to ease the pressure of their work.
