Shanghai

Statued in front of Sheraton Hotel, Shanghai.

1 of the old building at The Bund, Shanghai. I cannot get the famous scene from East Zhongsan No.1 Rd coz the construction is going on all over the place. Besides, the bad dusty weather was affecting my mood of photo shooting.

After visiting not-so-impressive The Bund, we were planning to visit Shanghai Peace Hotel to check out the old Shanghai night club ambiance, too bad, this hotel undergoing an unknown dateline renovation. http://cw85324.chinaw3.com/2007/img/xygs.jpg

This photo was taken while on our way to Nanjing Road. Checkout the messy cable, how they managed to set them up or maintain them?

I didn't take any good photo during the walking at Najing Road. But, we saw a lot of familiar branded shop that we familiar were setting up along this road. We chose to eat Haagen-Dazs ice-cream in Nanjing Road. (Funny?? yes, we never eat Haagen-Dazs ice-cream in Shanghai before. =p)

The 2nd day in Shanghai, we went to Zhouzhuang (周庄) is a town in Jiangsu province, China. This is a very popular tourist destination. It has been called "Venice of the East". The structure of all the buildings, the well preserved ancient residential houses and view of this place are amazed me.





We found a lot of shop selling cooked pork leg (万三蹄) all over Zhou Zhuang. We had tasted it and it doesn't impress us.


A lot of shop that selling handcraft stuff, such as bags, and sculptures.

Zhouzhuang is surrounded and divided by lakes and rivers. Many stone bridges cross the rivers, showing distinctive views of the water-town.


Zhou Zhuang is a place that you wouldn't want to miss out if you visit Shanghai.
