I am travelling to shanghai in sept this year and would stay for the weekend(sat and sunday), with my wife & son. Can you suggest, if I should book hotel next to airport or if I can find decent deals in city. Also if anyone could please answer the following:
1. Is it safe to travel after 8 PM in Taxi from airport to city ?
2. Do Taxi drivers speak english?
3. How far is 288 Luban Road, Luwan District from city ?
4. Are the places to visit / sightseeing close to the city?
5. Are the road signs in englih?
6. It is convinient to travel by taxi or by train.
7. Any good places to take kids to, water parks etc?

Your response would be highly appreciated?
Thanks,
