CHINESE WATER TOWNS Asia » China » Sichuan » Chengdu
CHINESE WATER TOWNS I have spent several weeks in Shanghai now and visited many places. I want to tell you about one of the places I have been to. West of Shanghai there are several small towns and villages which are known in Chinese as shui xiang, or water towns. These are ancient living towns where daily life still goes on. They are acclaimed for their arched bridges, ancient buildings and serene waterways. We went to a water town called Zhujiajiao not long after I arrived in Shanghai. Zhujiajiao is only 47km (30 mi) from downtown Shanghai and it is located [View Full Entry]

Arrival in Shanghai Asia » China » Shanghai
SHANGHAI, CHINA Hello to everyone! I arrived in Shanghai on Sunday evening, June 14, and have been delayed starting my blog because of difficulties in finding a website that was not blocked plus I have been too tired and to busy to get start. The one I set up before I left is no longer accessible in China. I will try this site and see what happens. If I don’t have your email and you want to follow along with me you can simply email me your address, I will notify you if I have to change sites again. My long [View Full Entry]
