Day 2 backup plans

If it rains

Keep the museum; use a Wuyuan Road café or the Jing’an retail area for the street-walk hours.

Eat nearby

Benbang lunch around Anfu Road · museum café · book a Xintiandi dinner only if atmosphere matters.

Getting around

Use DiDi from Anfu Road to the east entrance of Shanghai Museum East, then pin a specific Wuyuan Road café for the return trip. These short hops protect energy; traffic may change the timing.
