Nanjing Road

Known forshoppingpedestrianlandmarknightlife
Nanjing Road is one of the world's busiest shopping streets, a largely pedestrianised strip running from the Bund to People's Square lined with department stores, malls and neon signs. The stroll itself, especially the lit-up eastern section at night, is the real draw. It's crowded and commercial, and touts here are persistent, so keep your wits about you and treat it as a walk rather than a bargain-hunt.
