I will be in Shanghai for 3 weeks this winter to practice the language and learn about the culture, and plan to stay in hostels. I am currently about HSK 4/5 or so and can converse somewhat and read many characters.
The plane tickets are bought, I have a visa/passport, and have yet to get immunizations. All that's left to find is stuff to do.
Has anyone been to Shanghai before and know of some fun stuff to do over this three-week stretch?
if you are into art stuff go visit long museum and the west bund
I lived just outside Shanghai for almost 4 years. I hated that city. What a polluted mess. But to be fair I didn't spend too much time in it.

I'm going to be traveling outside the city a bit, so please let me know if there's any interesting spots near where you lived
I lived in Hongkou district for 2 years.
To say "What is there to do?" is too broad of a question.
Best bet is to find an expat forum and find parties. There are a lot of parties, and you'll have a pretty good time.
I enjoyed spending time in the few cigar lounges and drinking, I found the company better. I went to a couple bath houses/hostels, fucking the first girl there is kind of fun but after the first time its not. It is kind of like fucking a blow up doll.
Find a bunch of random girls online now, chat a bit, and hang out with them when you go there.
There is tons of shit to do.

Could you describe the clubbing scene in Shanghai? I'm going to study abroad at Fudan Uni this spring, would appreciate some info.
