Shanghai/2009-oct

My second visit to Shanghai took place in October 2009, only about six months after my very first journey to China. The trip was a wonderful mix of reunions; I was there to meet up with my Danish friend Anders, as well as Ms. Jing, whom I had met during my first travels.

I shared some memorable evenings out in the city with Anders, and especially with Jing and her family, who welcomed me with incredible hospitality. I stayed at the same hotel as I did in April, which added a sense of familiarity to the bustling metropolis. Unfortunately, my evening photos from The Bund turned out indescribably poor... but I promise, they will get better! :-)

Jing's family arranged a one day trip to Yellow Mountain in Anhui province, where we visited the ancient city of Hongcun. A very charming litte town and I even got a few good photos too :-)
