MrBrownJay1:


absolutely right, i lived in Shanghai (1yr) and Beijing (1yr) and there are many more other fantastic places in Shanghai that dont necessarily have to be the touristy places. Shanghai is a beautiful place wherever you go, you just have to look closely enough, and as much as it may not be chic, its nevertheless great.

and as for me, Tokyo takes the top spot in Asia, hands down... as (i believe) a great city is worthless unless its citizens are also great... and Chinese (no matter how rich/educated they are) have NO SAVOIR VIVRE!

C'est vrai

Les Chinois n'a pas SAVOUR VIVRE

MrBrownJay1:


the difference between these two country is enormous.... here are a few:
- older Japanese are even more respectful, older Chinese are even more racist
- Japanese would rarely try to cheat you, while most Chinese would
- lose your belonging (phone/bag etc) in japan, and chances are you will find it with all its content in no time.. in China, good luck.
- in Japan, everyone is treated like a royalty (bows etc), in China you are treated like garbage even if you are royalty.
- Japanese have class, manners, respect while Chinese dont
- Japanese women are clean sophisticated while all Chinese women "seem" dirty even if they aint.
- in Japan, if the price tag says 1000, that means it costs 1000... in China it means it costs no more than 700 and you have to haggle with seller
- if you are lost in the metro in Japan, people will go out of their way to get you where you are going... if you are lost in Chinese metro, then just pray!

the one thing they all have in common is fukced up teeth and women never trimming their pubic hair, lol!

foreigners are still a big attraction to Chinese in big cities like Beijing and Shanghai, so imagine in the smaller places... they will pop champagne if seeing you. up until not long ago, we (foreigners) were still viewed as the demon of the west. so they stare, point fingers when they see us, and even take pictures.

yes, Beijing is more like the traditional China, while Shanghai is the modern city... but Beijing is catching up really fast.

Everything you just said about the Japanese is totally it... They are very polite,respectful and really nice to foreigners

Chinese are just the opposite.,very cocky, manner less and spitting cobras..

Possible.
Those are neighboring countries. They aren't as big as Nigeria. A 7 days trip to those countries sounds reasonable to me

Come on bro..... Thats what i call BS tourism, where people go to a City, dont visit shit, and just run out their Tour bus, take a pic in front of a local monument, and run back to the Tour bus to the next tourist spot.

It will take NO LESS than 3-4 days just to discover Paris properly....

You are right on that one

wow, that's great photos. Frankly speaking I was thinking that our trip to Shanghai will be boring, because as it always happens, I only take photos and nothing more. But at this time my trip turned out to be really interesting, because I was able to visit an ancient water town, Shanghai Science and Technology Museum, scale up Shanghai world financial center’s observation deck, and you know what? It was amazing! TO be honest, my trip wouldn't be so interesting if I didn't read the article about shanghai things to do, that helped me discover new places where I got acquainted with many interesting people! Thank you, Shanghai for such a great number of impressions!

For me this is the most beautiful man-made city skyline in the world Would love to visit one day.

That photo doesn't enough do justice to the beauty and magnificence of the Bund, Shanghai! It's more spectacular at night when the buildings are all lit up in an array of mesmerizing colours!
