While Hengshan Road and Xintiandi are known as entertainment centers, Nanjing Road and Huaihai Road are by far the city's focal points for shopping.
Starting from the Bund in the east to the intersection of Jing'an Temple and West Yan'an Road in the west, the two streets are 5.5 km long with skyscrapers and more than 600 stores on both sides. The department stores in Nanjing Road are filled with a dazzling array of beautiful exhibits.
The impressive Nanjing Road is magnified by the colorful neon lights of a large number of high-rise buildings, like the Shanghai Silk Mall, Shanghai New World City, and Shanghai No.1 Department Store, dazzling every inch of the street. |
