THE warm weather over the May Day holiday meant tourist attractions across Shanghai were packed to capacity, the city’s tourism authorities said yesterday.

Yuyuan Garden, the Nanjing Road pedestrian mall, the Bund and Xujiahui were among the most popular areas, attracting a combined 6.95 million visitors, the Shanghai Tourism Administration said.

Another major draw was Shanghai Wildlife Park in the Pudong New Area, where visitor numbers over the three days rose 214 percent from last year to 125,200.
