Tripadvisor’s approach to reviews
Before posting, each Tripadvisor review goes through an automated tracking system, which collects information, answering the following questions: how, what, where and when. If the system detects something that potentially contradicts our community guidelines, the review is not published.
When the system detects a problem, a review may be automatically rejected, sent to the reviewer for validation, or manually reviewed by our team of content specialists, who work 24/7 to maintain the quality of the reviews on our site.
Our team checks each review posted on the site disputed by our community as not meeting our community guidelines.

    The metro is definitely a good way to get around Shanghai where you will skip the traffic jams if you travel by car. The carriages are clean and frequency of the trains are decent. Do note that security checks are done and bags are to be screened when utilised the subway. Use the metro card available within the Alipay app for a seamless travel (QR code).

    Who doesn't love travelling at high speed on a futuristic train. It's a great way to enter Shanghai from the airport. It is also a great start to modern China

    A good experience. A foreigner will need their passport to enter the train station. There are no tickets issued, just a reservation done online. All you need to know is train number, date, time. When you get into train station, there is a massive sign board with Chinese and English. Once you find the gate, you will scan passport at gate and will get carriage and seat number.
    All is well organised and perfectly on time.
    You can board 15 minutes before train leaves

    Travelled a lot on the metro and the light rail in Shanghai, found it easy to buy tickets and it's convenient travel at a very reasonable price. The light rail you get to see a little more of the sights of the city.
    I would recommend it as a travel mode.
