Aside from shopping or Disneyland, there's nothing much in Shanghai (as compared to truly historic places like Nanjing, Xi'An or Beijing), as much of it was destroyed in the war.

As with many major Chinese cities, street food vendors are fast disappearing as the government thinks that they are unsanitary.

3 days is all you'll need for Shanghai. The good thing is, Hangzhou and Suzhou are very accessible by high-speed train. Hangzhou is beautiful and is worth at least a night or two, while Suzhou can be visited as a day trip.

The French Concession and 小南国.

Tianzifang if you have never been. I find it too touristy and commercialized now.

Can try the old town outside Shanghai like Nanxun, Xitang etc.

Last year, it received 215 million domestic tourists and 7.3 million overseas visitors and is working to increase tourism revenues by 70% by 2015. With that goal in mind, the city is investing $5.95 billion USD into a number of key projects.
