Shanghai, what can i say!!! It has been one of the most wildest and craziest and the most tiring experience yet in China. It was an absolute blast. After finally agreeing to accomodation and booking it online, we bought our tickets and off we went on a 2 hour train trip to Shanghai. The train trip…

  Pictures: http://goodfarmerchen.smugmug.com/gallery/3049518   The days I spent in Shanghai passed in a whirl of family and food. I got to meet a ton of relatives I'd never met before and don't remember a moment I wasn't full to bursting. I probably ate more my first day in Shanghai t…

Politically, China may be a Communist regime, but economically they are as capitalistic as you can get! We loved Shanghai and we shopped and shopped and shopped! The city itself straddles the upper branch of the Yangtzee river ( I have to look the name up), with large skyscrapers all along one sid…

When travelling to China I had a look at this awesome city. Wether you go during the day or night you will experience lots of nice spots to look at and enjoy. Don't miss Nanjin Lu and the old tea house and gardens next to it. Also climb up Pearl tower and check out the train that runs under the riv…

Heute Vormittag hab ich mein Zimmer noch ausgenutzt und meine Sachen gepackt, Check-out time war um 12:00 Uhr. Meinen Rucksack hab ich im Hostel deponiert. Nachmittags bin ich noch zu einer Einkaufsstraße gefahren, bin dort entlang bis zum People's Square gegangen und dann wieder zurückgefahren. …

Hey everyone, Well my trip in Hong Kong ended not too long ago.  Sort of an anti-climactic end with visits to the High Court, the maximum security prision and then final exams... if that's what you want to call it.  Next I was off to Shanghai- by myself.  Man was I unprepared f…

Someone at the hostel gave me a good tip. The urban planning museum. My train leaves in the evening and I don't want to wait all day and do nothing. The museum is about all the plans that Shanghai has for it's city, building wise. But because they are building so fast, you really see what…

We took the overnight train to Shanghai on Thursday after the 2nd exam -- it was pretty stressful getting there as we took the Subway to the train station and then when we got to Shanghai we took the Subway to the hotel.  However, the hotel we stayed at was really centrally located and it was …

There were some days when we walked on the streets in Shanghai and Hangzhou, we didn’t have a proper lunch in restaurants. We just bought whatever street food/snacks that looks good. Surprisingly most of them are pretty good! At first we were a little worry if the foods are clean…hey, we didn

Braving the heat on the last day, we went to the Shanghai museum which had been highly recommended and was free which was another point in it's favour! When we arrived we were faced with a queue of people waiting outside in the blazing heat, luckily we had packed our umbrella so joined the crow…

The Levitating Bullet Train But my most awe-inspiring experience in modern Shanghai was simply taking the train to the airport. But this is no simple train - it is the world's only commercial Magnetic-Levitation bullet train! As it pulled into the station, there was no sound - just a "…

I truly fell in love with Shanghai. The beauty of the old temples mixed with the new towering skyscrapers, meets the ying and the yang. I will definitely have to make another trip back there very soon!!!!

In Shanghai on a business trip. It's the first time I was there. I just want to show some photos I took there.
