Day 1, July 8: Duoyun Books + The Bund night view
Check in to the hotel near Tiantong Road Metro Station at 1:30 PM. After resting, head to Duoyun Books on the 52nd floor of the Shanghai Tower. The shop primarily sells books and creative merchandise. There is a spending requirement to enter the Cape of Good Hope observation deck for a view of the Huangpu River: simply buying books or creative ice cream does not grant access. Each person must order a drink priced at CNY 35 or more; if you are in a group, each person must order one, and you can only enter the observation area with your receipt.
The observation area faces direct sunlight during the day, making it very stuffy, and the view is limited—you can only see the very top of the Oriental Pearl Tower. Overall, it is not very cost-effective, and I do not recommend making a special trip during the day.
Depart for The Bund at 6:00 PM. Stay from dusk until nightfall; the sunset glow combined with the night view of the international architecture complex is stunning.

Day 2, July 9: Shanghai Natural History Museum study tour
Spend the whole day visiting the Shanghai Natural History Museum. We booked a two-hour guided tour in advance. The museum has a vast number of exhibits, and the pace of the tour was fast. After the two-hour tour, the children were exhausted, and the overall experience was just average.
For lunch, we ate at Hefu Noodles next to the museum. The tomato flavor was very suitable for the children, and the prices were affordable and cost-effective. After lunch, we explored on our own for an hour before returning to the hotel to rest.
Practical tip: After entering the museum, your face is scanned, allowing for multiple entries throughout the day. You do not need to buy tickets again if you leave to eat.

Day 3, July 10: Visiting the Shanghai Astronomy Museum on a typhoon day
The original itinerary was temporarily adjusted due to the typhoon. The weather cleared up that day, so we spent the whole day traveling to the Shanghai Astronomy Museum in Lingang.
The museum is far from the city center, and the round-trip commute takes 3 hours. It is recommended to set aside a full day to explore it at a leisurely pace.

Day 4, July 11: Fudan University + Shanghai Science and Technology Museum
Visit Fudan University in the morning. Even though it was a cloudy typhoon day, it was still stuffy and humid outside. After cycling around the campus for an hour, we ate at the cafeteria. Visitors from outside the university are charged an additional 50% service fee, but compared to commercial areas outside the campus, the prices are still more cost-effective.
Head to the Shanghai Science and Technology Museum in the afternoon. The "Light and Shadow" exhibition area on the third floor is the most popular, with at least a one-hour wait for popular interactive projects. Even in typhoon weather, the daily visitor count exceeded 10,000. To reduce waiting time, it is recommended to head straight to the third-floor exhibition area as soon as the museum opens.

Day 5, July 12: Shanghai Museum East Branch + Yu Garden
Visit the East Branch of the Shanghai Museum in the morning to see precious cultural relics up close, such as various bronze ritual vessels and Qin and Han dynasty pottery figurines.
Head to Yu Garden Old Street in the afternoon to stroll around. We tried the crab roe buns at Nanxiang Steamed Bun Restaurant; they tasted very fishy and were not very good. The pan-fried buns and rice cakes with pork ribs from Dahuchun were quite good.
