ON THE BUND IN SHANGHAI
Shanghai is one of the most interesting cities I have ever visited. I like it because so much of it's past is still there. The Bund still has all the old pre-war buildings; the old French concession is filled with beautiful tree-lined streets and quiet elegance of the past. Shanghai has all the modern things too including a great Metro system and wide variety of restaurants and stores. I do not think its as up to date on shopping as Hong Kong, but it certainly has more to show in terms of history and old world elegance. LOVE IT!!! and I only live 70 min by bullet train from Hangzhou.
