This video follows Ryan Shane Palmer's exploration of Shanghai's nightlife, which takes a surprising turn due to the timing coinciding with the aftermath of Chinese New Year. The journey begins at Flair, China's highest rooftop bar, offering stunning city views but a less-than-welcoming experience for Ryan.
He then heads to the Blamy Stone, a renowned Irish pub, which is unusually quiet due to the holiday. Ryan interacts with locals and learns about the history of the area, including how residents' complaints led to the relocation of the party scene.
The search for a lively nightlife continues, but many clubs are closed. Ryan's attempts to create engaging content are hampered by the lack of open venues. He humorously reflects on previous nightlife adventures in Wuhan and Harbin, contrasting them with Shanghai's reputation.
