Shanghai Harbor City
This development was planned by German architects and is built around a circular man-made lake; it includes a planetarium, shopping, and massive office and residential development. Target population was 450,000 but it has not grown as quickly as planners hoped. There are eight university campuses on the west side with about 100,000 students.

上海迪士尼度假区
Approved in 2009, Disney sought to build a theme park in Shanghai that was both "authentically Disney [and] distinctly Chinese". It opened in mid-June 2016 and received 5.6 million visitors that year, an average of around 28,000 a day. It is Disney's third theme park in Asia and the only one in Mainland China. Most attractions are in Chinese. Maps and schedules are available in English. As of mid-2026, the resort includes two hotels and one theme park, and two more parks are planned.
Shanghai Disneyland is divided into six lands. Upon entering the park you will arrive in Mickey Avenue which replaces Main Street U.S.A. found in other parks. With its central location, the Gardens of Imagination serve as the park's central hub and features seven gardens: Garden of the Twelve Friends, Melody Garden, Romance Garden, Woodland Garden, Garden of the Magic Feather, Fantasia Garden, and Storybook Castle Garden. Fantasyland is the largest land and hosts Enchanted Storybook Castle which is the tallest Disneyland castle in the world and the only one that can be entered by guests. Treasure Cove is Disney's first pirate-themed land. Adventure Isle is centered around a raft ride called Roaring Rapids and also features Camp Discovery, a challenge trail consisting of three courses of varying difficulties. Tomorrowland is centered around TRON Lightcycle Power Run. It has the longest parade route in a Disney park.
