Shanghai lies in central-eastern China on the East China Sea and is China’s largest city with a population of 17 million. Central Shanghai is divided into two areas: Pudong (east of the Huangpu River) and Puxi (west of the river), home to most tourist attractions including the Bund. Today the city continues to grow apace, with a new airport, new underground stations, highways, the most modern stock exchange in the world and a whole new modern city in Pudong. There is much to see in Shanghai including the Bund, its riverside area, and Frenchtown, temples, gardens, bazaars and the striking architecture of the new Shanghai. Well known among the Chinese as the place to shop in China, ever since the 1930s the city has been home to the cream of China's department stores and today Shanghai is fast rivalling Hong Kong as a shopper's heaven. Shanghai offers a dazzling array of food with numerous restaurants offering all styles of Chinese and international cuisine.
