Shanghai - Sites, Shopping and Silk
... buildings in the city, but what they do have a lot of is new construction and identical apartments that carry on block after block after block. We also went back to People's Square and Food Republic where we had Teppanyaki for the first time.

... some pictures and admire the mighty statues. We also got a good look into the slums of Shanghai – it’s amazing the enormous gap in wealth in these cities, and the length it goes to hide the low end of the spectrum. During the day, the places go seemingly unnoticed; however, at night, when shops are shutting down and streets are much less crowded, it is hard to miss the many Chinese receding to the alleyways and back roads to go home.
