I Loved Shanghai
Seems that I love Shanghai moved to a new location. There was still a small light in the old place, the interior and a blackboard: “Bar for Leasing”.
English Maps, Chinese Maps, Beautiful Maps and No Maps
Google has been offering a Chinese map of Shanghai for quite some time. Not at maps.google.com but at ditu.google.com. Ditu, 地图, is the Chinese expression for map.
Now I stumbled upon a new, English one:
It doesn’t only show the public transportation but also restaurants, banks, cinemas, theaters, … Here an example of the area around Nanjing Lu:
But the most beautiful maps of Shanghai come from edushi (E都市, E-City):
Bund, Pudong and Old City (lower left)
Hongkou Stadium and Lu Xun Park
They have already covered many Chinese Cities and seem to want more.
So why Yahoo, why, why, why don’t you make maps, buy maps or allow the use of one of the above mentioned ones in flickr?

The tenthousandst picture I took with this camera since I got it for Christmas 2006 shows a ship on Huangpu River and the Oriental Pearl Tower in Pudong seen from Gucheng Park.
From People's Square to Xinzha Lu
According to a Chinese friend that’s one of the best restaurants around there.
Down the Road
A church at People’s Square
At first we didn’t know where the music came from. Then we looked up. We were under the balcony, he was above us.
Notice the dancing men.
Finding Flashcards
A picture is worth a thousand words. And particularly useful if you don’t know these words. ;-)
Dodo Club
That one is an insider.
Huangpu Night
I was taking a picture of this truck that had destroyed Ouwen’s jacket when one of the workers asked me to take a picture of them.
Old City at Night
Fuxing Road divides the old city.
Old house, new sign.
