Welcome
to Shanghai by Mr. R. Dibbs
|
|||||
One's first impression of Shanghai is of a modern,
vibrant, wealthy, international city. The many new hotel and office
buildings contrast with the streets of old buildings housing
restaurants, teahouses, shops and private residences. Perhaps the most
striking impression is that, because of the speed of development, one
will be greeted by new views.
