The Jade Buddha Temple is one of the more beautiful Buddhist Temples in Shanghai.  It's a little off the beaten path, and you have to walk a little ways from the nearest train station, but it is absolutely worth it.  You have to pay to get in, and pay a little extra to see the namesake Jade Buddha, but it's not expensive.  The temple is beautiful, especially when decorate for Chinese New Year.
