Introduction: First of all, I would like to introduce the work requirements for this time, which is to come to Shanghai to participate in the annual Photofairs Shanghai. This event is currently the largest image collection exhibition in the world. As an art image worker, I am honored to be Invited to participate in this event. I used to come to Shanghai almost every year, so I am not particularly unfamiliar with Shanghai. Babies who like art or want to collect works can pay attention to this Photofair Shanghai event in September every year. Tickets must be booked in advance, otherwise buying it on site will be extremely expensive. This business trip lasts for three days. How can I work and travel in three days?

I set off from home early in the morning and rushed to China Southern Airlines CZ3689 Zhuhai-Shanghai from 8:15 to 10:55. The ticket was still very cheap at this time. The school had just started and it was not yet the National Day holiday. Due to frequent business trips, I applied for China Southern Airlines Pearl membership. When I applied for a boarding pass, the airport lady helped me upgrade to business class! Arriving in Shanghai at noon, you can take the maglev train with a 50% discount with your air ticket. 40 yuan/one way. You can quickly reach the city. Originally, it cost nearly 200 yuan to get to the hotel, and it takes an hour and a half to drive. This saves money and saves time, and you can also feel the excitement brought by maglev. It's great. The scenery on both sides passes through in a swivelling way...

Remember to buy a maglev train ticket with your ticket, otherwise it will be 80 yuan/one-way.

Maglev trains are a major feature of Shanghai, so you must experience them.

It's not convenient to watch the exhibition with my luggage, let alone such a high-end exhibition. I can only go back to the hotel to put down my things first. Hotel I stayed at the Pujiang Select Hotel (Shanghai Jing 'an Temple Subway Station Branch)(Harajuku Light Luxury Hotel), which has a high value for money. The fee was 967 yuan/three days. Since the exhibition is at the Shanghai Exhibition Center and is located near Jing' an Temple Subway Station, I chose this hotel for convenience in travel. The location is very good, but it was a little difficult to find at the beginning. After arriving according to the map, I had to ask the security officer to realize that the fourth floor of the elevator is the hotel lobby. There is a lot of food next to the hotel, especially McDonald's, which is a must-have for business trips! Of course, I have to try local snacks. There is a restaurant called Auspicious Wonton just around the corner of the hotel. That restaurant will be my breakfast for the next three days!!! The price is not expensive. In a place like Shanghai, where every inch of land is precious, you can still have breakfast, lunch, and dinner for less than 20 yuan per person. It's amazing!

Home Inn (Shanghai Jing 'an Temple Subway Station Branch)
Don't be deceived by my pictures. This is the building next to the hotel. I always feel that I have to pass the Ferrari store every day when I wake up and go out, which makes me passionate about my work!

It is about 10 minutes 'walk from the hotel to the Shanghai Exhibition Center, passing by the golden Jing' an Temple. I heard from locals that the golden top of Jing 'an Temple is really made of gold foil. No wonder the temple is so beautiful both day and night!

Since I have to go to the exhibition site for two consecutive days, I will not focus on it today.

In the evening, after the guests invited us to eat, they wanted to take a walk, but they accidentally went to Tianzifang. Tianzifang is a 3A-level scenic spot in Shanghai. It is mainly composed of small alleys. It is full of Shanghai's specialty shops, including our Chinese goods, White Rabbit, Shanghai Stories, etc. There are also many specialty small bars inside. It is a place where local young people and foreigners like to gather. Although it is not as luxurious as Xintiandi, it is indeed a good place if it is just a small gathering of friends on a three-day basis.

How can I not go in and buy something when I see the light of domestic products? I bought a 39-yuan white rabbit perfume! Haha...
Photofairs Shanghai DAY2

After getting up at 9 a.m., I went downstairs to eat a lucky wonton and set off for the Shanghai Exhibition Center. There will be a whole day to watch the exhibition in the exhibition hall today.

Shanghai Exhibition Centre
The Shanghai Exhibition Center is an old building left behind by the Soviet Union and is very distinctive.

Every edition of Photofairs Shanghai is crowded with people.

After browsing the exhibition, we went to Moganshan Road to check out other interesting galleries. We heard from locals that Moganshan Road turned out to be an insane asylum. In recent years, it has only been changed into a gathering place for art galleries. Sure enough, people who engage in art are all crazy... Hahahaha…If you like it, you can visit the gallery on Moganshan Road. It also has a unique flavor. You can take beautiful photos everywhere.

Around 7 p.m., we went back to the hotel to rest for a while, and then got up and went to the City God Temple to find the most popular Xiaolong steamed buns in Shanghai. Which one is the best Xiaolong steamed buns? Just Shanghai Nanxiang Xiaolongbao La La... I have to say that Nanxiang's small steamed buns are really, really delicious, especially the crab yellow buns. The price is quite close to the people. I have to try them. The price of Nanxiang's house is determined based on the floor. Takeout on the first floor is the cheapest. There are private seats on the second floor, so the price will be a bit more expensive. The private rooms on the third floor are expensive! I personally tried the Xiaolongbao on the first floor and the second floor. There was no difference at all! After trying it, I found that there was no need to try the third floor. It was definitely the same product. The price has doubled!! You can also encounter performances while eating small steamed buns, which is unique in the ancient City God Temple!

After eating the steamed buns, I thought about walking to the Bund Road along the Huangpu River to see the night view of Shanghai. I happened to encounter typhoon days in the past two days, but it did not affect the night view of Shanghai at all.

There were so many people in line, I waited in line for half an hour

Of course, after eating fried chicken, I have to go shopping. It is located on the Nanjing Road Pedestrian Street, the most crowded street in Shanghai. There are a lot of brands. I will definitely not miss such a good shopping opportunity. There is China's Li Ning here. The price is almost as expensive as Adidas and Nike. It is in the style of a fashion brand. Friends who like it can go and have a look. The popularity is unimaginable, and many of them are out of code.

After shopping, I have to go back to the hotel to pick up my luggage and go to the train station. I am ready to go to Hangzhou...(Shanghai Railway Station is relatively small, it is enough to arrive 45 minutes early to check in, and there is nothing good to eat nearby, so don't waste too much time here)
