Have you ever walked along the Great Wall of China? Visited the 9,999 room Imperial Palace in the Forbidden City or the Ming Tombs? Or perhaps shopped till you dropped on Wangfujing Street, considered one of the premiere shopping areas in the city, with boutiques, department stores, cafes and even Chinese food stalls? If you've never experienced these wonders, then you've never been to Beijing, considered the heartbeat of one of the oldest civilizations on earth. It's a fascinating city that combines the very modern with the very ancient, people who are warm and welcoming, wonderful food and sights to see that will simply dazzle your senses.
How about Shanghai? It's a wonderful, exciting city that is often referred to as the "Oriental Paris", although it can also be compared to New York, with its electric atmosphere and energy. Shanghai is a city of rich cultural resources, wonderful cafes and restaurants, great shopping and night life, museums, temples and gardens to delight one's soul. Step back to 1599 and visit the Yuyuan Garden & Bazaar or step forward to Pu-J's, one of Shanghai's most modern nightspot complex. In the world of international cities, Shanghai is one that should not be missed.
