Fodor's Expert Review ERA–Intersection of Time

This troupe performs more than 15 acts per show of remarkable gravity-defying stunts. Performances are held at Shanghai Circus World, a glittering, gold, 1,600-seat dome, north of the city center, in Zhabei. It's a fantastical experience, but note that the more expensive tickets are not worth the price in terms of view or comfort. The performance space is just a few minutes' walk from the metro stop of the same name. It's easiest to eat dinner downtown before going to Shanghai Circus World.
