The Bund in Shanghai, build around 1920 by the allied forces or invaders as some call them build a lot of big buildings by this busy trade port. The buildings are still standing are now refurnished into offices from some of China's biggest banks, hotels or restaurants. My all time favourite is the Roosevelt House which is on Bund nr. 27 and has a spectacular view of the Pudong Skyline. About 25 years ago Pudong was just swampland, rice-fields and small houses that barely had electricity. Now it's been completely transformed into one of the worlds most important international trade spots. Pictures speak for themselves, a coffee here on a clear day is amazing.
Come to Roosevelt House in Shanghai, it's the best view you can find in Shanghai
The bund, always a lot of tourists but few know of this awesome view place
Loads of bigger ships passing here all the time
Private bed with Shanghai's best view @ rooftop. Gets better how?
Weather here is 1000x better than Beijing atm
Shanghai is full of restaurants, was recommended to go to the "best" Xinjiang food place located in Xujiahui. Their food is amazing and portions are very big for a very good price. The beer comes in quite big glasses too!
Muslim styled BBQ food
On the weekend we were going for brunch at Sasha's and then headed for the "movie town". Too bad it took quite a long time to get there 50km outside downtown in Songjiang. The place was closed when we arrived, better luck next time...
Sasha's - Hengshan road / Dongping road
On the way to Songjiang I saw this from the subway...wonder what kind of foundation or cemetery it is
Movie city, guards didn't let us in
Just 50km outside Shanghai downtown and it looks like this
Our neighbour was drying his meat on the balcony...nope this you don't see back home
