Shanghai was like a breath of fresh air. As mentioned in the previous entry, at this point in the trip, I've had just about enough of all the touristy temples and scenic landscapes. I was ready for some good food, good shopping, and the taste of a true big city. We found all of the above in Shanghai.

I (we) swear the Yoshinoya in Shanghai is 10x better than the ones we have here. As a matter of fact, we ate here, twice.

You can only pack so many pairs of drawls for a lengthy trip. Towards the end of the trip, I had to do the good old hand wash and hang.
In line for some of the best Xiao Long Bao (steamed pork bun) in town.

Absolutely delicious.

And that concludes my trip to China. Hope you all enjoyed as much as I enjoyed sharing. Cheers.
