Warning on crowded Shanghai during 01-07/Oct |
Around 450 thousand tourists on average crowd into Expo Park per day. 01-07/Oct is the National Day, the longest holiday in China. So the Expo Park is expected to welcome more than 600 thousand tourists per day.Though Expo may be appealing to clients, we don’t suggest they stay in Shanghai during this period for their benefit.
Visitors wait in long queues in front of almost every pavilion and restaurant every day since its opening, not to mention during long holidays. Very possibly most of the clients will be very disappointed and walk around the park and then leave.
Outside the Expo, the situation in Shanghai is not optimistic, either. The bund, Nanjing Road, Bazzar of Yuyuan Garden, TV Tower and other scenic spots are also too crowded to move one step. You know that people all over China want to have a look at this event, so they will certainly visit the places of interests of Shanghai at the same time. The traffic will be rather busy and the hotel prices will also be higher. It can be a big waste of time and can affect the quality of our service. So we suggest you change the date in Shanghai if possible.
Below are the pictures taken during the regular weekend in Shanghai for you to refer to.
