Walking in Hongkou towards Suzhou Creek and The Bund image hosted on flickr  Traffic lights in Shanghai typically have countdown timers. I have noticed this is common in all cities that I have been to in Asia (Bangkok, Singapore, Shenzhen and others). This is a very good practice. However it is not common in Europe and I have no idea why image hosted on flickr  image hosted on flickr  image hosted on flickr  image hosted on flickr
