Shanghai word toch gezien als het Parijs van het oosten?
Vind het bovenstaande ook niet echt kloppen met wat ik vind op Internet
NO city in China has ever fully embraced technology and modernity more than Shanghai. From the way it looks today, a tourist is likely to get an illusion that he is in a city in Europe and not in Communist China. Shanghai exudes a cosmopolitan character marked by contemporary urban living, skyscrapers of European architecture, bustling financial and industrial districts, one of the busiest ports in the region and ultra-chic commercial centers like hotels, museums, and shopping malls.
Once a small sleepy fishing village in the 1800s, Shanghai has already transformed into the most glamorous, decadent and cultured city in China and all of Asia in the early 20th century, earning for it the reputation "Paris of the East."
