Shanghai is the biggest city in China, and a harmonic mixture of the traditional and the modern, the east and the west. Shanghai has completely changed in the last decade. The great metropolis of Shanghai is currently undergoing one of the fastest economic expansions that the world has ever seen. While shops overflow and the skyline fills with skyscrapers, Shanghai now seems certain to recapture its position as East Asia's leading business city, a status it last held before World War II. Visiting and touring Shanghai are truly enjoyable for many. The weather in October in Shanghai is usually dry and sunny, with average temperature of 15-22¡ãC (59-71¡ãF).
