Shanghai
Shanghai is the old Asian capital of the rich and
famous, carrying an air of mystery in a fog of 19th century opium. The city is now a huge metropolis
of spectacular architecture contrasting the industrial
feeling of Beijing. The two cities physically couldn't
be much different for the 13 million residents. Shanghai
is far more western, more familiar to those from America
or western Europe. Going down the back alleyways will
erase that feeling however, squarely putting you back
into the regular Chinese person's life. These photos will
share with you the ultra-modern glass and concrete contrasted
by ancient traditions and techniques.
