Last sunday I went out to explore a bit in Shanghai. I ended up following the huangpu river up to yangpu bridge and then sort of crossing Pudong to another bridge before heading back home. A total route of about 40km.
Gave good views of pudong and it is fun to cross the river. I crossed the river twice just to check the photo opportunities and if view of pudong is wanted it is better to cross before reaching yangpu bridge.
Below Yangpu bridge I had my lunch and talked to a guy who later showed me his warehouse where they had clothes of all kinds and acted as wholeseller. It was a bit cheaper there than in many other stores!
