4:58 PM

After a 9 days trip to Shanghai, I'm finally back to S'pore.

Went Shanghai, Suzhou, Hangzhou, Nanjing and Wuxi. Went all around China and everyday meal include Breakfast, Lunch and dinner. All the meals came wif 10 dishes, was like emperor meal...lol...And Drinks will always be coke/sprite and China Beer.

Do u know why in China, their beer is cheaper than the soft drinks?
Is becos the beer is make by their own country, tats why they are cheap. And their beer taste different from other countries. Theirs abit watery, not very thick. Their alcoholic % is ard 1.5 or 3, quite low.

In China, you hear horns every 3 sec on the road. When u cross the road, you mus be daring to cross and not wait for the car to stop and let u pass, cos the cars wont stop for pedestrian, even for zebra crossing...Haha

DAY 1: Shanghai

Reached Shanghai Airport was 9.55pm. Meet up wif the tour guide and up the bus to the hotel to rest.

DAY 2: Shanghai - Suzhou

Morning had breakfast in the hotel. Next took the tour bus to diff places in Shanghai.

When u go shanghai, a "MUST GO" building is the 101 Storey World Financial Center. Guess some of us had saw this bulding on Discovery Channel. Saw that tall building?..That's the one.

The number printed at the top of the ticket was the amt of ppl went to this building since it's open till the day i went.

Next we took a 2hrs bus ride to Suzhou and we visited the Wangshi Garden and Hanshan Temple.

Man and Lady's VIP room...lol

Next went to the "Hanshan Temple".

Before entering to pray for wad u want, u have to step on the 5 bats on the floor and lastly step on the center circle and go into the temple to pray. Next had dinner then moved to Suzhou hotel to stay for the night.

DAY 3: Suzhou - Xitang Water Town - Hangzhou

Bus-Stop

Here is the place where the "Mission Impossible Part 3" movie takes film.

After lunch, took a 4hrs ride to Hangzhou. Hangzhou is a place i like the most. Green environment, Relaxing city, Motorbikes are not allow on road.

Day 4: Hangzhou - Nanjing
Next morning went to Tea Plantation.

Here is their "Night Market".

DAY 5: Nanjing - Wuxi
This Bridge is the Nanjing Yangtze River Bridge. Fully builded by their own ppl. But building this bridge sacrificed alot of ppl.

Next is the Memorial hall for the civilians who died during japanese invasion.

Next is Wuxi. We visited the 三国城. And night time, we stayed at a hotel in Wuxi.

DAY 6: Wuxi - Shanghai
Today we went to Madame Tussauds. Lots of wax figures. Here are some of them.

DAY 7: Lastly is the SHANGHAI night. We took cruise along The Bund.

Day 8: Is our own Free and Easy. Bought MRT ticket, board their MRT. Travel at our own time own pace. =)

DAY 9: Time to go Hm...board the Maglev train to the Airport. This Maglev train travels at a max speed of 431km/h. Reason why it could travel so fast is becos the train is floating above the track. It uses the magnetic force between the train and the track.

Lastly, Let me end it wif my tour group photo...=)
