Just got back from Shanghai, and it was really the most interesting and eye-opening experience for me. (I also saw Hong Kong, Shenzhen & Guangzhou) IMO it is truly an amazing city, its a large city with immense beauty and a very powerful one. You cant helped but be impressed with it, and with China's rising might :cool:

some street scenes from the old part of Shanghai...very lively area...

Nanjing Rd..I love this area..always bustling with activity and they pedestrianised the place...reminds me of London's Picadilly Circus.

the traffic is a bit wild..lots of bicycles on the road
