Food-themed route challengers will pass through some major business hubs and receive a box of Shao Wansheng mooncakes when they reach Nanjing Road E.
Other routes involve activities like learning fire protection knowledge, knowing about the stories of Shanghai's time-honored brands, and checking in on Shanghai's popular tourist attractions.
