Chinese discos

from 3 minutes in Shanghai Hosted by Tee Lek D. Ying

You'll never forget your first trip to a Chinese disco. I'm talking about the local-style places outside of the city center. Now, every expat has his occasional great time at one of the clubs downtown, but to see how the rest of China parties, you've got to look outside the ring road. Here are a few places in the Fudan University area of Shanghai that're still down and dirty local: Hit House Pub, on the corner of Guoding Lu 国定路 and Huangxing Lu 黄兴路 UFO Bar, on the corner of Siping Lu 四平路 and Xingang Lu 新港路 They're good examples of a 'typical' local Chinese nightclub, but they're only a sample of what exists in the city. They just happen to be short cab rides from my place. You'll be the only foreigner in the place, you'll get hair in your eye, and the music will suck, but you'll never forget it. tek.
