Shanghai was amazing! I stayed for 5 days but wish I stayed longer. Everything was so cheap and the transport system (metro) made it so that you could anywhere very quickly since there's metros stops everywhere connected in a grid. The food is very cheap too but lots of overpriced tourist traps. Overall I felt safe but being a non-aisan women will definitely get you a lot of looks from men. People also spat on the street which was very shocking. The people are very friendly, especially students. Customer service is strange, not that friendly but still helpful.
