Shanghai Old City (Nanshi)

Worth it if you're after authentic Shanghai atmosphere without breaking the bank—the free entry means you can wander at your own pace, though the 4.7 rating and nearly 2000 reviews suggest guided tours unlock what matters most. Go early morning to dodge crowds and experience the narrow lanes properly, rather than fighting tourist clusters later in the day.
