Destination & City Travel Guide
About Shanghai
Shanghai is organised around the Huangpu River. The Bund looks across to Pudong’s towers, while Yuyuan Garden and nearby streets offer a different scale of buildings and shops. Museums and former lane neighbourhoods fill out a longer stay. Pudong International Airport is well east of central districts, so arriving visitors should decide whether a hotel is near People’s Square, the Bund or a metro interchange before choosing a transfer. The airport metro is useful, but its travel time is longer than the map may suggest.

Tips for travellers from India
People’s Square is useful for central metro connections, while the Bund suits a stay focused on the historic riverfront. A Pudong hotel places the towers on the same side of the Huangpu as the airport, but the district is large and the final station still matters. The Maglev reaches Longyang Road rather than the Bund itself; onward metro or road transport is needed. Metro Line 2 offers another route from Pudong Airport into the city.
Air India checks in at Terminal 2, at island K. The airport’s other terminal is a separate check-in building, and a domestic connection may require collecting bags and completing new departure formalities. Hongqiao is a different Shanghai airport, not another Pudong terminal. In town, the Bund promenade and a Pudong observation visit face each other across the river but need a crossing between them. Yuyuan Garden belongs to a smaller-scale old-city route, while People’s Square museums form another cluster. Museum of Art Pudong is on the newer waterfront side and has its own exhibition tickets. For a short visit, select one river crossing and build the day around the sights on either bank rather than repeatedly returning to the same metro interchange. Pudong Airport’s distance makes the last transfer a meaningful part of the departure day.
Best time to visit Shanghai
March to May or September to November, about 12–25°C, for riverside walks.

Shanghai airport information
Shanghai Pudong International Airport (PVG). Air India operates from Pudong Terminal 2, with check-in at island K. Both main terminals handle domestic and international operations, so flight type alone does not identify the correct building.
About Rome
Rome rewards a plan built around nearby sights. The Colosseum and Roman Forum make one archaeological outing, while the Pantheon and surrounding lanes suit a separate walk. Trastevere is useful for an evening meal after the major monuments close. Travellers from India landing at Fiumicino can reach Termini by express train, but a hotel near another station may need an extra connection. Reserve time slots for major sites and keep a little space in the day for long security queues.

What's new in Rome
- December 2025: Colosseo–Fori Imperiali station opened on Metro C, adding an interchange with Line B beside the ancient archaeological district.
- December 2025: Porta Metronia station opened on the same extension, bringing metro access and archaeological displays to another part of the city.
Tips for travellers from India
Termini makes a convenient arrival base when using the Leonardo Express from Fiumicino. The train takes about 32 minutes and finishes at the main station, so its advantage is strongest for accommodation nearby. A Trastevere address calls for a different comparison: regional airport trains serve urban stations other than Termini, and the final connection should determine the choice.
Keep the Pantheon, Trevi Fountain and surrounding streets together as a walking day. Put the Colosseum and Forum on another part of the programme, with the new Metro C interchange offering another way into that district. Trastevere fits more naturally with an evening across the Tiber than with repeated crossings between archaeological sites.
The Vatican Museums belong on their own half-day across the river. A central Rome hotel does not make every major attraction a neighbouring stop. For a short stay, selecting two of these geographical groups produces a clearer route than trying to alternate between the Vatican, Forum and Trastevere within one afternoon.
Best time to visit Rome
April to June or September to October, around 12–27°C, for outdoor sites.
