How to get there
Trendy Shanghai
For those who love what shines, Shanghai is full of bars, clubs, lounges, each of which more design than the last. Start your evening with an aperitif at Glamour Bar and go down one floor for dinner at M by the Bund. Then, the choice is yours. Bar Rouge, Attica and Muse are renowned among the best clubs of Shanghai Glam.
Shanghai Theatre and Jazz
Steps: Shanghai
Start your evening at Cotton's Bar. Nestled in the former French concession, the terrace of this former colonial residence is ideal for an aperitif. For those who are beyond the age of dancing until dusk, Shanghai offers quality shows and concerts. You should absolutely see, at least once in your life, a Chinese opera... note that for Europeans, the Chinese opera with its high-pitched female voices and its repeated percussions is more a pleasure for the eyes than for the ears. Once the opera is finished, go to one of the many jazz clubs in the city. JZ Club, Cotton Club or the House of Blues and Jazz are all located in the former French concession. If it is not too late, you can conclude the evening at Face Bar, at Ruijin Park.
Shanghai Underground
Steps: Shanghai
The districts of the former French Concession and Jing'an, further north, concentrate a number of bars intended for an informed public. You will meet carefree Shangainese young people there and a large contingent of expatriates. Less expensive than on the Bund and less "appropriate dress required" many of these places open their doors widely to local bands (rather rock) or improvised music sessions of an evening.
