#LeicaTakeover: In September, we flew directly to Shanghai from New York Fashion Week to perform in a show. I was extremely jet-lagged the second night we were there, so I took a taxi to The Bund for a tremendous view of the Shanghai skyline.

在上海呆過半年，都沒有出去玩 因為工作一個人。現在你來了，終於回到我熟悉的地方。但是上海下了三天的大雨，去不了很多地方。外灘也去不了 唉。我明天就去蘇州表演了，今晚包了整個 貴賓包廂 來看上海夜景，不用淋雨，不用和別人擁擠，不用和別人雨傘打架拍照呵呵⋯ 我們倆可以慢慢的在遊艇上 私人貴賓室 裡 觀看上海夜景 ，浪漫的兩個人看到飽 ⋯ 還有私人 服務生 為我們拿飲料 拿水果 等等，服務周到⋯
I used to be stationed in Shanghai for work for some time but i never really go anywhere because i was alone. Now that it's GG Boy with first time in Shanghai and i only have three days to bring him around, it RAINS EVERYDAY omg and tomorrow we r heading to Suzhou for my performance. Sigh... I havent show him The Bund and so many other place and tonight's the last night. So, got the WHOLE VIP AREA booked just for us on the night cruise, so that we have all the space and time to ourselves heeehee ... Best way to see Shanghai's night views on both sides and the skyline 😌 I love my life and getting what i want and having a person who completes the whole picture Muah
Shanghai Day 3 is by far my busiest day - a little recap: I am visiting my friend Christina who is doing a placement in Shanghai. We ended up in Suzhou Gold Coast Resort for a spontaneous trip.
1) Taihu - we cycled to Taihu in the morning for a quick look around
2) People's Square Marriage Corner - we visited the (in)famous marriage corner where parents seek suitable prospect for their children (who are all adults, fyi)
3) Fouyumen shopping center - we returned so I can buy a pair of sunglasses for my sister
4) Yu Garden - I visited te famous Yu Garden, a 16th century traiditional garden
5) The Bund - I finally got around to seeing the famous Shanghai skyline!
6) Nanjing Pedestrian Street - the highstreet of Shanghai, very atmospheric at night
I hope you are not tired watching it - I was completely knackered!

Beijing (formerly romanised as Peking) is the capital of the People's Republic of China and the world's third most populous city proper. It is also one of the world's most populous capital cities. The city, located in northern China, is governed as a direct-controlled municipality under the national government with 16 urban, suburban, and rural districts. Beijing Municipality is surrounded by Hebei Province with the exception of neighbouring Tianjin Municipality to the southeast; together the three divisions form the Jingjinji metropolitan region and the national capital region of China.
A city combining both modern and traditional architecture, Beijing is an ever-changing megacity rich in history but also truly modern, exemplified in its extraordinary global influence in politics, business & economy, education, history, culture, language, music, sporting, architecture, civilization, fashion, art, entertainment, innovation and technology. Beijing is the second largest Chinese city by urban population after Shanghai and is the nation's political, cultural, and educational centre. It is home to the headquarters of most of China's largest state-owned companies, and is a major hub for the national highway, expressway, railway, and high-speed rail networks. The Beijing Capital International Airport has been the second busiest in the world by passenger traffic since 2010, and, as of 2016, the city's subway network is the busiest and second longest in the world, after Shanghai's subway system.
The city's history dates back three millennia. As the last of the Four Great Ancient Capitals of China, Beijing has been the political centre of the country for much of the past eight centuries. With mountains surrounding the inland city on three sides, in addition to the old inner and outer city walls, Beijing was strategically poised and developed to be the residence of the emperor and thus was the perfect location for the imperial capital. Beijing was the largest city in the world by population for much of the second millennium A.D. The city is renowned for its opulent palaces, temples, parks, gardens, tombs, walls and gates, and its art treasures and universities have made it a centre of culture and art in China. Encyclopædia Britannica notes that "few cities in the world have served for so long as the political headquarters and cultural centre of an area as immense as China." Beijing has seven UNESCO World Heritage Sites – the Forbidden City, Temple of Heaven, Summer Palace, Ming Tombs, Zhoukoudian, as well as parts of the Great Wall and the Grand Canal, all popular locations for tourism. siheyuans, the city's traditional housing style, and hutongs, the narrow alleys between siheyuans, are common in urban Beijing and are also major tourist attractions. The city hosted the 2008 Summer Olympics and was chosen to host the 2022 Winter Olympics, which will make it the first city to ever host both events.
Many of Beijing's 91 universities consistently rank among the best in China, of which Peking University and Tsinghua University are ranked in the top 60 universities in the world. In 2015, 52 companies of the Fortune Global 500 company headquarters were located in Beijing, more than any other city in the world, including state-owned enterprises State Grid, China National Petroleum, and Sinopec Group, ranked 2nd, 3rd, and 4th, respectively. Beijing CBD is quickly becoming the center for Beijing's economic expansion, rapid modernization, and radically changing skyline, with the ongoing or recently completed construction of multiple skyscrapers. Beijing's Zhongguancun area is also known as China's Silicon Valley, China's center of innovation and technology entrepreneurship. According to the 2016 InterNations Expat Insider Survey, Beijing ranked first in Asia in the subcategory "Personal Finance Index," a measure of expats' salaries versus cost of living in the city. Expats live primarily in the east, in urban districts such as Dongcheng and Chaoyang, or in suburban districts such as Shunyi.
Let's take a proper look at Beijing, the Capital city of China...
