Strolling around in Pudong


Went to Pudong this morning for an appointment, it's change a lot! Before they were building up this area for the Expo and there was construction work everywhere! Around the Super Brand Mall they only had construction sites and the traffic was pretty chaotic. Now there is a huge buss station, some 50 story buildings and a passage above ground for the pedestrians.

One of worlds tallest hotels - Jin Mao, suites on 90th floor
Looks a lot different than 2007

Foreigners are still pretty privileged here, for example the hospitals. There is a huge Chinese hospital in the center of Pudong but I just walked passed it and happened to notice that on the side of the building there is an own entrance for foreigners to the "International" department which looked a lot nicer...Price in Beijing was more than 10x more than local hospitals but then again all the doctors were foreign (US, Sweden, German, Japanese etc)

While on lunch I met a lot of....ducks dangling from this place. Looks DEEE-LIII!!
