China 25: Canal towns around Shanghai
6 February 2009
Stinky beautiful. If Shanghai, once “the most decadent, cultured and glamorous city in China” was called Paris of the East, its neighboring townships, all a few meters below sea level, besieged by swampy swamps and full of canals, should aptly be called Venice of the East. And I have no idea how the act of cleansing something can be done in water so filthy.
Nice picture. Where was it taken?
It very much looks like Zhujiajiao …
