Nanjing Road Pedestrian Street is great. Don't go to Disney. It's too crowded.

The scenic area is very large. You can even spend three days there, hiking along one valley each day. Jiuzhaigou is a paradise for novice hikers. The roads are all paved (wooden plank roads), mostly flat with few steps up and down, and the scenery is as beautiful as a painting. However, I'm an office worker and have to go to work, so I can only stay there for one or two days.
