Shanghai Secrets
2016 - 2017
Welcome
Dear Friends of Dulwich,
The Welcome Committee is pleased to present the
2016 - 2017 edition of Shanghai Secrets: your guide to
finding what you need in Shanghai.
It isn’t an
exhaustive list, but it is a great start if you’ve just moved
to Shanghai (and even if you’ve lived here for a few
years you may find something new!).
We hope you’ll be able to feel settled in Shanghai a
little bit faster by using this knowledge. It has been
assembled from many different sources over a number
of years. And we look forward to hearing about any
updates you might have for next year’s edition.
Welcome to Shanghai.
Ready, set, enjoy!
Yours truly,
Friends of Dulwich Welcome Committee
