Shanghai - as a stark contrast to the traditional, historical Beijing you will find here giant skyscrapers and a more international flair

all the local restaurants; and Quanjude for famously good peking duck.
For great nightlife try... 13 Aug 2010 Matthew, England & Wales:
We went on a hostel-organised trip to the local opera; don't bother - just buy tickets yourself. The trip was being led about 300 yards by foot.... There's a poster in the lobby saying do not go on trips with 'Jack', organised by the shop next to the hostel, because he is dishonest and not professional. Jack's trips are a fraction of the cost of those organised within the hostel (eg, Great Wall, 140 versus 380 RMB). We went with Jack; it was fine. I wrote something to this effect on the poster and, next time I looked, my note had been torn out. Someone's got it in for Jack.
For good eats check out... 03 Aug 2010 Katy, Australia:
The street outside is full of good, cheap stuff to eat
For great nightlife try... 03 Aug 2010 Katy, Australia:
Nan Luoguxiang. Or if you have time, schlep to Sanlitun, which is more expensive, but cater for expats
Don't miss... 03 Aug 2010 Katy, Australia:
all the obvious beijing sites: they're famous for a reason. However, for the Great Wall, don't go to Badaling. Try Mutianyu or Simatai instead.
