Shanghai Crazy


Went to Shanghai, China last week for a series of workshops and a few meetings. It's not really my first time in China since I've been to Beijing and Guangzhou once before but Shanghai caught me completely by surprise!

China opened up 20 years ago -- so most of the buildings erected there now are less than 20 years old -- but my gosh! Everywhere I look, I just see a sea of buildings! Shanghai is so far from the picture of China that Beijing and Guangzhou has left as an impression in me when I last visited China. Shanghai is the picture of cosmopolitan city progression. And, i found the fact that no matter how big the roads get in Shanghai, there will surely be a bicycle lane to the right side of the road very very charming indeed! Something about the past that the Shanghai-nese decided to keep for their city. I had a blast shopping in Shanghai. I finally bought that chinese baby doll dress I've wanted for so long at Nanjing Road and I got it at 70% discount!!! Not bad at all at 179 RMB!
