Yes, that's an amazing surface but how big is Sampa municipality actually?

This is googleable people. I'll show a new picture

Sampa municipality is about 1/4 of Shanghai area - 1500km2. That's the area of Canton Zurich, but with 7-8 times more people (10mio). Grande São Paulo with 19mio inhabitants is about 8000km2 in size.

But there is still a LOT of nature and even primate Mata Atlantica forest left in this area (I took the pic below in Cotia). Sampa itself is also the biggest(!) agriculture town in the state with the most farmers.

It is in Songjiang. It has several of these neighbourhoods but only one in this style. I want to know the name of this neighbourhood

Forza Raalte

I give you 3 points for Song Jiang actually. It is the same as guessing Croydon in London.

The story about this city is rather interesting, I will give some info at the end of this GTC.

are you sure it's not Hampton woods? or the new british town?

Thames Town is correct!

Read the article. China is madness. In sub-urbs of Shanghai they build a Tudor style British city, an Italian style city, a classic German style city and even a copy of the Ramblas! :eek:
