I’d add that any city in China is unlike anywhere in the US. Period. And there are many interesting and beautiful places close to Shanghai, like West Lake in Hangzhou. I just realized you would be in Tianjin - which I still think of Tientsin. Given the short amount of time in China, I wouldn’t think much about taking trips. Tianjin itself has a lot of history. (E.g., look up the history of Jews there.)
