'''Shanghai''' is an overseas region of Maple World on the China part of the World Map. Its riverside town is [[Map:The Bund|The Bund]]. Nearby are the [[Map:Shanghai Airfield|Shanghai Airfield]], east of The Bund, and the [[Map:Yuyuan Garden|Yuyuan Garden]]. To the west lies farmland full of livestock driven wild. For the high-level [[Map:Yu Garden (Shanghai)|Yu Garden]] area, which is a separate trip with Spinel, see also [[Wu Tien Mountain]].

== Getting there ==
* '''By Spinel:''' talk to [[NPC:Spinel|Spinel]] in a main town (Henesys, Ellinia, Perion, Kerning City, Lith Harbor, Orbis, Ludibrium, Leafre, Mu Lung, Ariant and others) and choose '''The Bund (Shanghai) · Lv 15-50'''. The trip is free, and any level can take it. The level range on the label is not a requirement. Spinel also stands at The Bund, and his '''Return home''' takes you back to where you left from, or to Lith Harbor if he cannot tell.
* '''By plane, one way:''' [[NPC:Yang the Pilot|Yang the Pilot]] at the [[Map:Shanghai Airfield|Shanghai Airfield]] flies you to [[Map:Perion|Perion]] for 2,000 Vesos. He only flies out of Shanghai.

{{Changed|In MapleVerse Spinel's trip to Shanghai is free and has no level requirement.}}

== The Bund ==
The Bund is a town where you can save your return point.

There is no storage keeper in Shanghai.

== Shanghai Airfield and Yuyuan Garden ==
The Airfield is east of The Bund. It has a Free Market entrance, and you can save it as your return point. [[NPC:Yang the Pilot|Yang the Pilot]] flies to Perion from here. [[NPC:Juice Bar Granny|Juice Bar Granny]] sells nothing; she only chats.

Yuyuan Garden also has a Free Market entrance, and you can save it as your return point. It has a beauty salon:
* [[NPC:Senior Hair Stylist|Senior Hair Stylist]]: haircut or dye, you choose (2,000 Vesos)
* [[NPC:Hair Salon Assistant|Hair Salon Assistant]]: haircut or dye, random (2,000 Vesos)

For the salons, see [[Hair Salons and Plastic Surgery]].

== The Adventure Arena ==
From Yuyuan Garden a door leads to the [[Map:Adventure Arena Entrance|Adventure Arena Entrance]]; three Rings lead off it. It is a contest for two players, not a fight between players. When a game starts, one of three games is picked at random:
* '''Defeat Your Own Monster''': a monster bearing your own name appears; the first to defeat their own monster wins.
* '''Monster Hunt''': monsters appear all over the Ring; whoever defeats the most wins.
* '''Obstacle Course''': the first past every obstacle to the finish wins.

The [[NPC:PvP Guide|PvP Guide]] answers questions; the [[NPC:PvP Ranking Board|PvP Ranking Board]] shows the standings.

== Hunting grounds ==
=== How the maps connect ===
* West of The Bund: [[Map:Outskirts of Shanghai|Outskirts of Shanghai]], then [[Map:Northern Shanghai Plains|Northern Shanghai Plains]], [[Map:Northern Shanghai Hills|Northern Shanghai Hills]] and [[Map:Xizhou Crossroads|Xizhou Crossroads]], where you find [[NPC:Mr. Yang|Mr. Yang]].
* From Xizhou Crossroads, go west through [[Map:Xizhou Plains 1|Xizhou Plains 1]] and [[Map:Xizhou Plains 2|Xizhou Plains 2]] to [[Map:Xizhou Plains 3|Xizhou Plains 3]], a dead end. Or go north to [[Map:Central Plains Highlands 1|Central Plains Highlands 1]] and [[Map:Central Plains Highlands 2|Central Plains Highlands 2]].
* A hidden portal high up in The Bund leads straight to Central Plains Highlands 2, and a hidden portal high up in Central Plains Highlands 2 leads to Xizhou Plains 2.
* [[NPC:Officer Lim|Officer Lim]] guards the way from Central Plains Highlands 2 to the [[Map:Domain of the Black Sheep|Domain of the Black Sheep]]; he lets you in only once you have accepted or finished [[Quest:Secret Mission|Chief Officer Chu's Secret Mission]]. In the Domain, [[NPC:Officer Chung|Officer Chung]] opens the [[Map:Secret Passage (China)|Secret Passage]] once you have taken [[Quest:Officer Jung's Request|Officer Jung's Request]] from him, or sends you back. [[NPC:Officer Kang|Officer Kang]] walks you from the Secret Passage back to Central Plains Highlands 2.

If you are knocked out on the fields, you come back at The Bund. In the Domain of the Black Sheep and the Secret Passage, you come back at Central Plains Highlands 2.
