We arrived safely in Shanghai, flight was good.... It was nice to fly above the smog, cloud and see some sunshine.... The pollution that blankets china is horrible....
Shanghai
...the city of lights, is the original home where east meets west.... Everything is here...
Our hotel is right on the main strip -Nanjing Rd....
We took the day yesterday to go and visit an ancient village of China called Wu Zhen (pronounced Woo Chen)... Built around a set of canals over 1500 years old....
The original families still live here, even with all the tourists....
We walked to the Bund, and had a wonderful couple of meals here.....thanks to Yaxuan for recommending one.... Today off to Yu Garden and try those wonderful dumplings Shanghai is famous for... Expectations were high.... I think for the $400 we paid for the original dumplings.... We are spoilt here in Australia...
We are off early in the morning to Macau ....this is our last stop in China....
Hope everyone is having a good Easter weekend...
