No matter whether you are a dandy or a vagrant, whether a church mouse or always the center of attention, when you come to Shanghai, even if you lock yourself in solitary confinement, you can't help but be infected by the city's unique bourgeois spirit. So if you like Shanghai and you're feeling a little rebellious, take a look at the following text; it'll warm you up and help you ease into Shanghai's vacuous lifestyle.
[去衡山路散步] 闻名遐迩的衡山路，最美丽的时光不是午夜，而是傍晚。这时候，街上华灯初上，行人稀少，沿着宽宽的梧桐大道轻盈漫步，只见西式的洋房、古典的教堂、街头的公园、私人的小院、还有那散落各处的酒吧和咖啡馆，全都披上了一层迷人的华彩，让你仿佛身处静谧的仙境。
[Take a walk on Hengshan Rd] World-famous Hengshan Rd is at it's most beautiful in the evening and at night. At that time, Chinese lamps are hung, and pedestrians are few; as you walk along the broad sycamore-lined avenue, your view is filled with colonial manors, historic churches, street-corner parks and private gardens, and finally bars and coffee shops scattered about along the way. Everything is draped with an enchanting excitement, as if you're body had been carried away to a peaceful fairyland.
[去襄阳路放电] 据说，女人只有进入服装店才会两眼放电，那么，赶快去襄阳路吧，这里服饰中心和广州的流行前线一样，可以买到最时尚的长裙，最前卫的T恤，最流行的手袋，最新潮的鞋子。据说，男人只有看到女人才会两眼放电，那么，也赶快去襄阳路吧，服装店最多的地方，美女也是最多的哦！
[Give your eyes a treat at Xiangyang Rd] People say that when women enter a clothing store, their eyes "discharge sparks", so get on over to Xiangyang Rd. This is a clothing supercenter, like Guangzhou's Qianxian, where you can buy the most fashionable skirts, the most avant garde T-shirts, the most trendy handbags, and the most new-wave shoes. People say that you just need to show a beautiful woman to a man, and his eyes will "discharge sparks", so get on over to Xiangyang Rd, because where there is a concentration of clothing stores, there will be a congregation of beautiful women!
[去慈溪路淘碟] 做广告就不能不看碟，看碟就不能不去慈溪路，因为，这里是上海最集中的D版DVD碟片销售地，可以和广州的粤富广场媲美，所有市面上出现的热门和偏门碟片，都能在此淘到。尤其是那个以古玩店做掩护的老板娘，经常还会根据你的口味，向你推荐一些另类新碟呢。
[Pocket some DVDs at Zixi Rd] As an advertiser you must watch DVDs, and to watch DVDs you must go to Zixi Rd. See, this is Shanghai's biggest concentration of pirated-DVD shops; you could go so far as to compare it to Guangzhou's Yuefu Square. All the latest movies and oddball flicks can be yours! We especially love that one shop that sells curios as a cover, whose boss will recommend movies based on your taste.
[去哈根达斯约会] 爱她，就带她去吃哈根达斯。哈根达斯冰淇淋，全部采用世界各地的纯天然原料精致而成，马达加斯加的香草、巴西的咖啡、夏威夷的果仁、俄勒冈的草莓、比利时的巧克力、瑞士杏仁......创造出一款又一款的极品美味，再配以浪漫雅致的环境，足以把她的心融化。(旗舰店地址:淮海中路558号.订座电话:63593481)
[Take a date to Häagen-Dazs] If you love her, take her to Häagen-Dazs. Häagen-Dazs's ice cream is made with the world's finest natural ingredients: Madagascar vanilla, Brazilian coffee, Hawaiian nuts, Oregon strawberries, Belgium chocolate, Swiss almonds... and they come out with one fine flavor after another. Add on an elegant, romantic atmosphere, and you're sure to melt her heart. (Flagship store address: 558 Huaihai Rd. Reservations: 6359-3481.)
[去百盛门口见面] 据非官方的非正式统计，每天相约在淮海路百盛门口见面的人接近上万，因为这里是淮海路的中心，因为这里是时尚的前沿，因为这里有个小小的广场，因为这里有个大大的地铁口。如果你心血来潮想约朋友逛街，如果你早有预谋想约网友见面，到百盛门口吧，不过小心被挤掉鞋啊！(地址:淮海中路陕西南路地铁站口.)
[Meet at the entrance to Parkson's] According to very unofficial statistics, every day approximately a million people meet at the entrance to the Parksons on Huaihai Rd! This corner is at the heart of Huaihai Rd, the frontline of fashion, a nice little open square with a convenient metro exit. If you're meeting that special someone that makes your heart flutter for a day of window-shopping, or you're finally getting together with that online friend that you have a special feeling about, make sure to meet them at Parksons; but be careful, it's often so packed that you might be squeezed out of your shoes!
[去钱柜唱歌] 几个朋友聚会，与其找个地方吃饭，还不如去钱柜唱歌，作为上海最流行的ktv店，这里不仅有最齐全的歌目，最震撼的音响，最舒适的环境，还提供自助餐任你品尝，总的花费也不比去餐馆吃饭多多少。而且，在晚上12点以后，包房费还可以低至四、五折呢。(静安店地址:上海市乌鲁木齐北路457号.)
[Karaoke at Cashbox] If you're planning to meet with friends and you're looking for a place to eat, why not just go to Cashbox for karaoke? As Shanghai's most well-known KTV location, here you can not only find the most complete set of songs, the most earth-shaking sound systems, the most comfortable rooms, you can also help yourself to the all-you-can-eat buffet as you sing. The price will even be comparable to simply going out to eat. Plus, after midnight prices are slashed up to 50 and 60% off daytime prices, for an even better deal. (Jing'an location: 457 Urumqi Rd.)
[去季风书店看书] 位于地铁陕西南路站里的季风书店，可能是上海最好的购书之处，这里的店主品位较高，所卖的图书既多又全，而且新书上架很快。至于购书环境，更是非常宽松自由，即使你在这里看上一个下午，店员也同样笑容可掬，在这样的地方买书或看书，绝对是件轻松愉快的事。(地址:地铁一号线陕西南路站大厅)
[Book hunt at a Jifeng Bookstore] Located in the S Shaanxi Rd metro stop, this might be Shanghai's best book-buying place. This bookstore boasts better books, bigger selection, more complete collections, and stocks new books faster than other bookstores. As for the store's atmosphere, it's very relaxed and free: even if you spend the entire afternoon just browsing the employees will still treat you with a smile. Buying books at this kind of store is simply a pleasure. (Location: S Shaanxi Rd metro station)

[Search for inspiration at Ikea] Swedish furnishers Ikea landed in Shanghai on W Longhua Rd, next to Shanghai Stadium. The best stuff here isn't the larger furniture, but those fascinating, clever little items, from paper lampshades to cloth CD cases, from bell-bottomed vases to rag throw-rugs, from flower-engraved bowls to mobile bookcases... every time, you can find a new treasure to give you a boost of that homey spirit.
