The subway and light rail in Shanghai are connected to each other, which is the most convenient mode of transportation (except taxi).
Classic routes: People's Square, Nanjing Road, Bund, Lujiazui and City God Temple (Yuyuan Garden)
Shanghai Railway Station doesn't need to leave the station. Just follow the instructions on the platform and take Metro Line 1 to People's Square. If you leave the station, take Metro Line 1 near the southeast exit of South Square. Take a look at the museum as a whole (see both the front door and the back door. Although it is free, you should visit the museum. Girls are recommended to look at the trinkets in Di Mei Mall (underground of People's Square, connected to the subway station)
People's Square goes to Nanjing East Road Pedestrian Street. I'm glad you can walk this road to the Bund. If you are afraid of being tired, you can spend 3 yuan on a "small train" (battery car). Nanjing Road is the first commercial street in China. Needless to say, the consumption level is suitable for the public, but there are too many people. On March 28th, the Bund was rebuilt and reopened. It is worth seeing. During the day, you can see the Huangpu River and take photos. At night, the western-style buildings on the Bund are brightly lit, and it is particularly good to sit on a cruise ship ("Pujiang Tour", several cruise companies are all on the Bund).
The Bund faces Lujiazui (Oriental Pearl, Jinmao Mansion and Binjiang Avenue) across the river, and the most convenient way is to go back and forth from the Bund sightseeing tunnel (there are also things to see in the tunnel). You can also take the ferry, subway or bus. It is recommended to take a ferry on the Bund. After crossing the river, turn left at Shiliupu or Jinling East Road. You can see Binjiang Avenue (with a hydrophilic platform) all the way to Lujiazui, and then look at the tall buildings such as the Oriental Pearl and Jinmao Building. The Oriental Pearl can take the elevator to overlook Shanghai.
Lujiazui takes Metro Line 2 to Nanjing East Road, and then changes to Metro Line 11 to see the Town God Temple (Yuyuan Garden), where there are many small commodities and snacks.

Huaihai Middle Road, Xintiandi, Tianzifang and No.8 Bridge Creative Workshop
Huaihai Middle Road Commercial Street (elegant, mixed with Chinese and foreign, with many international brands). Huangpi South Road Station of Metro Line 1, Madang Road (Taicang Road-Zizhong Road) is a "new world", and there are many foreigners visiting it. Tianzifang (Dapu Bridge and Taikang Road on Metro Line 9) is also good. You can take bus 146 from Xintiandi to Tianzifang, or transfer between Metro Line 1 and Metro Line 9 in Xujiahui. If you have time, you can look at the No.8 Bridge Creative Workshop (North-South Elevated Road, Jianguo Middle Road) near Tianzifang.
In suburban ancient towns, the three ancient towns generally don't need enough tickets (except for a few spots).

It's traditional to eat snacks and go to the Town God Temple (Yuyuan Garden). Besides, there are many small commodities there. In addition, there are Wujiang Road and Yunnan South Road (both relatively close to People's Square, with their own styles).
