TAXI Taxis are readily available all over the city (all colours, with the taxi sign on the top). Starting fee is 16 RMB for the first 3km. Make sure you have your destination printed in Chinese to show the driver. The taxi should have a meter and a photo license of the driver inside. MAGLEV and METRO It is possible to reach the venue and hotel area by train, but this requires switching at least twice to the Metro. However the experience of travelling at up to 400 km/h on the fastest commercial train in the world may well be worth the effort. The Maglev train will take you from the airport to Longyang Road. Here you switch : please check Google for which trains to take from here to your hotel.

The stations for the Maglev and the Metro are located between Terminals 1 and 2. There is an elevated walkway between the terminals. Follow the signs to the other terminal and you will pass the Metro entrance and the Maglev entrance. Cost will be 50 CNY for the Maglev and then approx. 4 CNY per metro ticket thereafter Click here for the map of the Metro Lines, or http://map.ps123.net/china/UploadFile/201401/2014010900363833.jpg Click here for more about Maglev SHANGHAI PUBLIC TRANSPORTATION CARD These cards can be bought and recharged at any Subway stations and will also be on sale at the Conference Registration Desk.

Some Useful Tips for Exploring the Shanghai Ø Apps to install : PLECO: An English-Chinese dictionary app that allows you to write the Chinese in characters or pinyin (Chinese words with Latin characters), and will pronounce the Chinese for you. Ø Electronics: Check any electric/electronic items to see if you need an adapter. China is on 220 volts, 50 Hz. You can bring an adapter with you or purchase one here. Ø SIM Card: You can buy a SIM or rent a cell phone at the airport: ask the information desk for

detailed information. Typically, China Mobile SIM cards provide more coverage and better service, but with slightly higher cost.

Hengshan Road[20] is a street in the former French Concession of Shanghai. It is one of Shanghai's more vibrant nightlife districts and popular particularly among expats. The street is named after Mount Heng, a sacred mountain in Hunan province. It was established in 1922 as a leisure street. As it was at that time part of the French Concession, many European-style buildings were built here in the 1920s and 1930s. The Hengshan Rd. nightlife district can be reached by taking Shanghai Metro Line 1 to Hengshan Rd. station. Xintiandi is a car-free shopping, eating, and entertainment area of Shanghai. It is composed of an area of restored traditional shikumen ("stone gate") houses on narrow alleys, a modern shopping mall with a cinema complex, and some adjoining houses which now serve as book stores, cafes and restaurants. .Xintiandi means "New Heaven and Earth", and is considered one of the first lifestyle centers in China.

The closest metro station is Xintiandi on Line 10. Can also be reached from South Huangpi Rd., on Metro Line No.1, then walking down Huangpi Rd.(S) or Madang Rd. for about 5 minutes. The Hongmei pedestrian street is probably one the best places to go in the city. The Hongmei pedestrian street (although sometimes referred to as the Hong Mei Entertainment Street) is a place dedicated to eating and drinking with a primary focus on Western workers and visitors. Recently re-named Laowaijie 101 or Foreigner's Street 101 (The word “Foreigner” is pronounced as “Laowai” in Chinese). The 480-metre-long Laowai 101 boasts a number of reputable restaurants and bars from different countries. The closest metro station is Longxi Rd on line 10, walking down Hongmei Street for about 10 min.

One can easily get there by taxi by just asking “Hongmei Lu, Yan’an Xi Lu ” which basically means the crossroads between these two roads. Then look for the Pearl City shopping centre and the Hong Mei Lu pedestrian street is virtually directly opposite.
