I really haven't seen your question earliyer. I liked the teahouse in the lake very much and the adjoining garden. I went there very early in the morning and had the chance to see people practicing Taj-Chi. And the weather was best very early in the morning, we even saw some blue sky. Then there's the bund and pudong all a must and I'm pretty sure you'll visit it. Shopping in Nanjing road is a must. As a daytrip go to huangzhou on beautiful west lake. http://www.globosapiens.net/mortimer/pictures_china_hangzhou_819111_31.html look here for pictures. As Restaurant look here for an expensive travel tip: http://www.globosapiens.net/mortimer/travel-tip-m-on-the-bund-1045.html go there for lunch time and it's cheaper but still dear. As I see you have read my travel report about shanghai. http://www.globosapiens.net/travel-information/Shanghai-1163.html Just some information I could come up with. Have a great trip and enjoy. Oh and take care of the traffic! Martin --- Today is the first day of the rest of your life, enjoy it!

Have you read the reports of others? It is a country only opening up now in an economic boom and very few members have visited it. Take the trip as an adventure and you will be pleased to explore and discovere a new world. You are lucky, I have to wait a long while. Bring back a lot of pictures and experiences for us, perhaps you can help us in the future! Your title was wrong, too general and not very attractive, perhaps that is why the little response? Next time: "Shanghai Highlights?" NB: How was Paris? Why no report or picture or at least a travel-tip? Hope they will follow.
