Shanghai Christmas Market at Waitanyuan ✨🎄

#hellohalloween Located near The Bund, right at the intersection of Beijing East Road and Yuanmingyuan Road, this year’s Warm Winter Carnival Christmas market is absolutely buzzing with festive cheer! 🎟️ Tickets are RMB 30 online (via mini program) or RMB 40 at the door — but be warned, weekend and evening slots often sell out fast! The market isn’t huge, but the atmosphere is fantastic — full of lights, music, and the smell of delicious food. And the best part? The food stalls are actually authentic! Way better than those so-called “Shilin Night Market” knock-offs 😆 We tried the mulled wine 🍷 — surprisingly good! And the scallion oil noodle pizza (葱油拌面披萨) deserves a big shoutout — only ¥20 per slice and absolutely delicious! There’s also a cotton candy stall that’s super popular — ¥75 each, a little pricey but undeniably cute and festive! The market might be small, but the vibes are full of joy and warmth — plus, you can even grab a free Christmas headband on entry! 🎅
