Shanghai 1991 - 2005

Shanghai - changing every day

Shanghai Pudong 2005
Finally I had the opportunity to visit Shanghai again after 14 years. In 1991 I did ot see any highrise buildings on the other bank of Huangpu River, as there have not been any at that time.Nanjing Lu was a narrow and crowded street with cars. Suzhou Creek was smelling badly most of the time.

I always longed to come back and see the impressive changes, that had taken place in the last 14 years. So, when I now flew to Chongqing via Shanghai I was glad to have about 5 hours between planes, which I could use for a short sighseeing trip to the city center.

In my Shanghai page on VT I'll leave my old tips and pics from the 1991 trip unchanged. I am adding pics and and tips from my 2005-trip.

 Interesting page, I could not imagine the change in 14 years. A Tai Ji session at 5:30AM, why not ;-)

 The growth of Shanghai is amazing. I think it will be one of the most important world cities in the 21st century.
