Shanghai Photos IV


The crossroad junctions of some of the main streets in Shanghai are so wide that the City Council has provided these "Elevated Pedestrian Roundabouts" for easier and safer passage of pedestrian. Problem is to get people to use them!


Sunset at Yu Yuan Old Street, a well known tourist attraction in Shanghai. Here, one could sample the old architecture of The Bund while tasting some of the best "Xiao Long Bao" (小笼包) and local titbit.

This picture was taken in a Silk factory. With 2008 Olympics just around the corner, China could do well to improve on the quality of its english translation. Some of these are simply hilarious.
