Shanghai, 17.8 million city
One more flight on our itinerary took us from Guilin to Shanghai and upon arrival we took the 300km per hour (400km during certain hours) Maglev train from the airport to Pudong and then connected to one of the busiest areas of Shanghai, East Nanjing Street, for our next home. Ming Town Youth hostel was excellently located right behind the …
