Planning on visiting family in Shanghai in the spring....Probably stay there less than a week and want to travel somewhere else as well for a total trip of about 2+weeks. We will have a stop in TOkyo so it's possible that we can spend time in Japan. Our interests are the culture, photography and general travel (not massages, Holiday Inn, shopping at Prado, etc.) Suggestions?
Shanghai and what else?

If you are already paying for a Chinese visa for the trip to Shanghai, perhaps this would be a good opportunity to travel elsewhere in China. Does that interest you or are you looking for a different destination?
Go to Xi'an to see the terracota soliders and then fly to Beijing.
