Paris Hilton Makes Inaugural Visit to Shanghai

After spending a brief amount of time in the States following trips to Moscow, Tokyo and Seoul, Paris Hilton has made her way out of the country once more.

This time, the hotel heiress has headed off to Shanghai for the first time to attend Friday's 2007 MTV Awards and Style Gala at the Shanghai Grand Stage.

Rather than supporting her family name by staying at the Shanghai Hilton, the former Simple Life star opted to check into the newly opened Hyatt on the Bund for her first trip to the city.

"The panoramic Bund view from the hotel room seemed the major reason to attract her there," an employee of MTV China told press, adding, "Hilton hopes to gain a better understanding of the city's landmark charm within a limited time."

According to the latest reports, Paris also plans to visit the Shanghai Museum and Oriental Pearl TV Tower during her stay. Insiders are also telling that she may have a mini fashion show up her sleeve.
