Shanghai: China’s Most Dynamic Metropolis
Shanghai, the most populous city in the People’s Republic of China, is a renowned tourist destination celebrated for its rich architectural diversity and vibrant cultural scene. As the second-largest of China’s four direct-controlled municipalities, it is home to over 24 million residents. The city stands as China’s wealthiest metropolis and a trendsetter in fashion, design, and the arts. With its world-class dining and shopping experiences, Shanghai is undeniably the country’s premier lifestyle hub.

Economy
As China’s commercial and financial epicenter, Shanghai serves as the country’s gateway to Asia and the world. Positioned near key production and distribution centers, the city plays a vital role in global trade. Shanghai is unmatched in its economic dynamism, historical significance, and colonial heritage.
As of October 2024, Shanghai was ranked 8th in the Global Financial Centres Index (GFCI), Shanghai has long been a powerhouse in East Asia. During the 1930s, it was the region’s most prosperous city, and a new era of rapid development began in the 1990s. A prime example is the Pudong District—once a swampland, now a thriving economic hub and a symbol of China’s modernization. The Shanghai Futures Exchange led the world in trading six key commodities, including rubber, copper, and zinc.
In September 2013, with support from Premier Li Keqiang, Shanghai established the China (Shanghai) Pilot Free-Trade Zone, the first of its kind in mainland China. This initiative introduced a series of pioneering reforms designed to attract foreign investment and enhance economic openness.
Shanghai, meaning “Above the Sea,” is strategically located in the heart of the Yangtze River Delta. It boasts the world’s busiest container port and is actively positioning itself as a global shipping hub.

A Global Gateway
As a leading air transport hub in Asia, Shanghai is served by two major airports: Shanghai Pudong International Airport and Shanghai Hongqiao International Airport. Pudong Airport handles the majority of international traffic, while Hongqiao primarily manages domestic flights along with a select number of short-haul international routes.
