i think Yu garden (Yu Yuan) would be a good choice to buy gifts. there is not many street markets in shanghai now. 1.Qi pu road market is for cheap clothes, but dont think that's a good place to go. 2. Xin Le road is another shopping area located in central shanghai, off Huai Hai road, for clothes (top brand with a discount price, dont know if that's fake or not)3.sometimes, you can try the underground market, around people square (the central of shanghai, metro Line 1, 2 and 8)
but please remeber bargain is necessary!
about the taxi price, wont cost you lots of money compare with UK, and most of the drivers are nice and helpful. but please consider the traffic situation!
