Interesting places around Shanghai ... anybody ?

[Froggy]

True. Suzhou and Hangzhou are the Paradise on Earth. The girls are pretty but I was told that many pretty ones have moved to Shanghai, a bigger city. You should know since you were there for one year.

I'm not sure about SZ & HZ pretty gals moving into Shanghai. Anyway SH, SZ, HZ speaks almost the same language. They all could understand each other is one speaks own language. One thing I very sure is SZ and HZ gals are more gentle gals in China not just compare to SH gals.

西湖 is vastly over-rated. i dont find it nice or scenic at all. but if you are already at hangzhou then might as well look see look see.

To fully appreciate the scenery you must read up or listen to the stories behind each scenic spot.

I personally believe West Lake is very beautiful all year round if only there are no Chinese people. Been there many time and the thing that spolis it is really the Chinese tourists. The whole place will be packed with people and some are very rude and uncultured. I understand this Friday when I am there it'll be pack because its weekend and close to CNY.

One thing I find hard to explain. Why are Shanghai guys afraid of their ladies? Looks like the guys do all the housework and the gals just enjoy life.

Shanghai guys are pussy whipped. Kia bor to the extreme.

I used to work with a man from Shanghai. Nice guy, humble and he knows his job well.

He was married, and his wife was in Shanghai. One day he brought his wife to Singapore. Took her to the various tourist destinations. He wanted to bring his wife over to stay with him.

She said 'No thanks.' and went back to Shanghai. He was disappointed but couldn't do anything.

龙井 is good stuff.

I like to smell tea, I love the aroma of 龙井.

Yeah dining by 西湖 having 东坡肉 is quite something.

Tea can even be eaten dry.

No no way. It's a small little 佳家汤包。

I was taken to a 饺子 restaurant once in Pudong called the 新梅陇镇。They served 108 types of 饺子。 Could not find it anymore. Anyone can help?

I agree with Uncle Fook Seng. It's the story behind the place that makes it intriguing.

Can save time now la going to Hangzhou by HSR (High Speed Rail) takes only 45mins. From Hongqiao Train Station in Shanghai directly ointo Hangzhou's city center station which is very close to West Lake.

Hehehe, thanks for the update, haven't been for a few years already. :o

There's also fish cooked a special way in Hangzhou right? It's available in most of the restaurants.
West lake definitely worth going at least once.

If you are able to locate it, give me the address.

Correct me if I'm wrong. General Yue Fei's temple is located @ Hangzhou ? I remember they have 2 statues of Qin Kuai and his wife kneeling outside the temple. Tourists are invited to spit on the two statues.

I'm just wondering one FINE day Sinkieland will have a similar tourist attraction @ MacRitchie Reservoir with ex-Kempetai kneeling in front of Lim Bo Seng's Memorial.

You are correct regarding Yei Fei's temple.

There are several Yue Fei temples in China, but the one in Hangzhou also was where Yue Fei was buried.

So if Sinkieland were to build something similar, which two Sinkies deserve to be kneeling in front of Lim Bo Seng memorial ??
