Disappearing Shanghai
Shanghai is a great city to walk around and explore the older residential areas with their back street laneways.



This old part of Shanghai is disappearing fast as high rise devolopment eats up more of the old neighbourhoods every year.

Apartment Blocks
I have been walking around with someone who has been coming to Shanghai for over 10 years. He has pointed out to me skyscrapers that sit where old markets used to be. An all too common site are these whole blocks of demolished neighbourhoods.
