Walking in Shanghai

Shanghai's riverfront Bund faces the Pudong skyline, and behind it the former French Concession's tree-lined streets and lane houses are some of the most pleasant walking in China.

Terrain. Flat throughout, with wide pavements in the centre.

Weather. Summers are hot and humid with heavy rain in June; winters are cool and damp.
