Description
The city of Beijing has been the capital of China for over 800 years and shows many aspects of Chinaās imperial past. Beijing offers many of the nationās most significant sites including the Forbidden City, Tiananmen Square, the Summer Palace and the Temple of Heavenājust to name a few. Shanghai means āthe city by the seaā and this Chinese city of superlatives is located on the Huangpu River on the east coast of China. The Huangpu River journies to the Yangtze River and divides Shanghai on its way. To the west is Puxi, the older part of the city. To the east is Pudong, a spectacular area of modern skyscrapers (including the Oriental Pearl Tower) developed from a flat green field to become āHong Kong-likeā in just a decade during the 1990ās.
