On a note
Regardless of the season, heavy rains can start in Shanghai, so it makes sense to pack an umbrella in your suitcase.
Since the information boards and signs are reflected in hieroglyphs, it will be quite difficult to navigate in Shanghai, but do not hesitate to ask the locals for help - many, especially young people, speak English well. In addition, it will not be superfluous to have with you the name of the hotel and any place with the address where you need to get, written in Chinese.
Memorable gifts from Shanghai can be Chinese tea, silk products, jade figurines, woven straw products, Chinese porcelain, sea pearl jewelry, decorative lamps of original shapes.
