MAGLEV and METRO It is possible to reach the venue and hotel area by train, but this requires switching at least twice to the Metro. However the experience of travelling at up to 400 km/h on the fastest commercial train in the world may well be worth the effort. The Maglev train will take you from the airport to Longyang Road. Here you switch : please check Google for which trains to take from here to your hotel. The stations for the Maglev and the Metro are located between Terminals 1 and 2. There is an elevated walkway between the terminals. Follow the signs to the other terminal and you will pass the Metro entrance and the Maglev entrance.

Ø SIM Card: You can buy a SIM or rent a cell phone at the airport: ask the information desk for detailed information. Typically, China Mobile SIM cards provide more coverage and better service, but with slightly higher cost.

It is one of Shanghai's more vibrant nightlife districts and popular particularly among expats. The street is named after Mount Heng, a sacred mountain in Hunan province. It was established in 1922 as a leisure street. As it was at that time part of the French Concession, many European-style buildings were built here in the 1920s and 1930s. The Hengshan Rd. nightlife district can be reached by taking Shanghai Metro Line 1 to Hengshan Rd. station. Xintiandi is a car-free shopping, eating, and entertainment area of Shanghai. It is composed of an area of restored traditional shikumen ("stone gate") houses on narrow alleys, a modern shopping mall with a cinema complex, and some adjoining houses which now serve as book stores, cafes and restaurants. .Xintiandi means "New Heaven and Earth", and is considered one of the first lifestyle centers in China. The closest metro station is Xintiandi on Line 10. Can also be reached from South Huangpi Rd., on Metro Line No.1, then walking down Huangpi Rd.(S) or Madang Rd. for about 5 minutes. The Hongmei pedestrian street is probably one the best places to go in the city.

  • Regeneration and Sustainable Development in the Transformation of Shanghai
    Ecosystems and Sustainable Development V 235 Regeneration and sustainable development in the transformation of Shanghai Y. Chen Department of Real estate and Housing, Faculty of Architecture, Delft University of Technology Abstract Globalisation has had an increasing impact on the transformation of Chinese cities ever since China adopted the open door policy in 1978. Many cities in China have been struggling with the challenges of urban regeneration created by the restructuring of the traditional economy and increasing competition between cities for resources, investment and business. The closure of docks, warehouses and industries, and the deteriorating position of traditional urban centres not only created problems but also created exceptional opportunities to reshape cities and create new functions. But this kind of process also generates a series of physical, economic and social consequences for cities to tackle. In many cases the problems exceed the capacity of the local community to adapt and respond. This paper examines a number of urban regeneration projects in Shanghai, in the hope of providing a better understanding of the process of urban regeneration in China and how best to ensure that such regeneration is sustainable. The paper reassesses the aims of regeneration, the mechanisms involved in the regeneration process and its physical, economic and social consequences, discusses how to achieve sustainable development in urban regeneration and makes recommendations for future action. 1 Introduction Global market forces and increasing globalisation are clearly playing a role in the transformation of cities and towns. In most countries urban systems are experiencing dramatic changes brought about by economic restructuring, continuous mass migration and the arrival of immigrants.

  • Discussion on the Segmentation and Unification of Public Space Within Shanghai Historic Lane Neighbourhood
    ICOA543: BETWEEN FAMILY AND STATE: DISCUSSION ON THE SEGMENTATION AND UNIFICATION OF PUBLIC SPACE WITHIN SHANGHAI HISTORIC LANE NEIGHBOURHOOD Subtheme 01: Integrating Heritage and Sustainable Urban Development by engaging diverse Communities for Heritage Management Session 2: Management, Documentation Location: Stein Auditorium, India Habitat Centre Time: December 13, 2017, 14:30 – 14:45 Author: Xiang Zhou, Aya Kubota Xiang Zhou, who achieved his bachelor’s degree in Landscape Architecture at Beijing Forestry University, China, and received his master’s degree in Landscape Architecture at Tongji University, China, is currently conducting his Ph.D. Study on Urban Design at The University of Tokyo under the supervision of Prof. Aya KUBOTA, at the Territorial Design Studies Unit. His research interests are urban regeneration and historic precinct revitalization, urban & rural community sustainable development, territorial cultural landscape and Chinese classic gardens. Abstract: Shanghai’s historic lane neighbourhood is a social combination established on residents’ recognition of cultural identity and rights. It has blended into their daily life, shaping their cultural characters, developing the basic tone of Shanghai urban life, and becoming a mainstream living space in Shanghai. Analyzed under the perspective of daily life, Hongkou River area in Shanghai is selected as a case study to identify sustainable means towards equity. Through empirical research, the thesis believes identification of three distinct worlds: Shikumen lane neighbourhood, new-built commodity house district, cultural and creative industrial district, under the collective name of a unified community, apparently exists within the residents’ cognitive map. Accordingly, urban segmentations between the three worlds reflect on the physical differences in entrance guard, architectural type and interactive mode in their daily lives.

  • Shanghai, China Overview Introduction
    Shanghai, China Overview Introduction The name Shanghai still conjures images of romance, mystery and adventure, but for decades it was an austere backwater. After the success of Mao Zedong's communist revolution in 1949, the authorities clamped down hard on Shanghai, castigating China's second city for its prewar status as a playground of gangsters and colonial adventurers. And so it was. In its heyday, the 1920s and '30s, cosmopolitan Shanghai was a dynamic melting pot for people, ideas and money from all over the planet. Business boomed, fortunes were made, and everything seemed possible. It was a time of breakneck industrial progress, swaggering confidence and smoky jazz venues. Thanks to economic reforms implemented in the 1980s by Deng Xiaoping, Shanghai's commercial potential has reemerged and is flourishing again. Stand today on the historic Bund and look across the Huangpu River. The soaring 1,614-ft/492-m Shanghai World Financial Center tower looms over the ambitious skyline of the Pudong financial district. Alongside it are other key landmarks: the glittering, 88- story Jinmao Building; the rocket-shaped Oriental Pearl TV Tower; and the Shanghai Stock Exchange. The 128-story Shanghai Tower is the tallest building in China (and, after the Burj Khalifa in Dubai, the second-tallest in the world). Glass-and-steel skyscrapers reach for the clouds, Mercedes sedans cruise the neon-lit streets, luxury- brand boutiques stock all the stylish trappings available in New York, and the restaurant, bar and clubbing scene pulsates with an energy all its own. Perhaps more than any other city in Asia, Shanghai has the confidence and sheer determination to forge a glittering future as one of the world's most important commercial centers.
