Shanghai

Peter M. Geiser

Shanghai is the new rising star in the East. It is a gigantic bustling city with a lot of cunning entrepreneurs.

Its famous Nanjing Lu is the best known shopping street in China. The center is dominated by colonial buildings, culminating in 'The Bund.'

Shanghai is in the process of rebuilding itself. More than 15 million construction workers help to shape the city into one of the world's most modern cities with dozens of the latest-fashion high-rise glass and steel buildings.

Traffic in Shanghai is one enormous nightmare! Traffic jams are frequent, so reserve enough time to go to some place.

On October 1, 1999, befitting the 50th birthday of the People's Republic of China, the new PuDong airport went operational. It is located about 45 kilometers east of the city center.
