A walk along The Bund can give you a great view of the Jin Mao Tower across the river, and it allows you to look back and marvel at the European-style architecture of some of the buildings. Just west of this area is the Shanghai Museum, a place where you can easily spend a whole day learning more about the rich history and viewing national treasures. To see traditional Chinese architecture, visit the City God Temple. You can see tributes to deities at the temple, and you can explore the shops and restaurants located all around the main hall.
