Shanghai Sports Events
As a mecca of sport, Shanghai is home to two professional football teams, Shanghai Greenland Shenhua F.C. and Shanghai SIPG F.C., the Shanghai Sharks basketball team, and the Shanghai Golden Eagles baseball team. Of course, as China’s national sports, competitive table tennis and badminton matches are also very popular.
Visiting Shanghai
Once just a sleepy fishing village, Shanghai has grown to become China’s largest city and one of the most populous in the world. A leader in finance, technology and manufacturing, Shanghai takes you on a trip to the future with mind-bending architecture like the Bund Finance Center and China Pavilion, and unfathomably fast high-speed trains. Meanwhile, the Old City and the water towns surrounding the city, recognised for their intricate Chinese architecture, await to show you its history and culture. Consisting of 18 districts, Shanghai is easy to get lost in – both figuratively and literally – but every turn offers something new and exciting.
