BEFORE YOU GO
A little planning goes a long way.
Check the Anting branch; give Disney a day
For Anting, choose the Huaqiao branch rather than North Jiading. The theme park and northwestern old towns are far apart and are best planned on separate days.
Check admission before deciding your day
Gardens, temples, museums and performances have their own opening and admission arrangements. Suggested durations are editorial estimates and do not include long queues.
