Hi,
i have tried to search the forum but can't find the information I need about this island.
I live in Puxi, would like to go there this weekend, how to get there ? how long does it take, can stay at the island overnight ? recomended hotel ? need to book boat/bus tickets in advance ?

Many questions, only a few answers would help me so much !
thanks, Eric

I went to Chongming Island in April with my husband's company for a weekend retreat. Unfortunately, I cannot tell you exactly how to get there but I do recall it took 45 minutes from Xuijiahui to the ferry. I Googled "getting to Chongming Island" and this link might help you with suggestions on what to do and how to get there:
