China

China is an interesting place; I can't actually say I liked it, but it does offer something different. I spent one night in Shanghai and the rest of the trip in a province called Suzhou. Known as the Venice of the East, Suzhou is a water village that has started to burst its banks. Though nowhere near as populated as Shanghai, it has definitely lost its charm as a sleepy town. During the grand Prix weekend, prices were astronomical and conmen were out in full force, which discouraged casual exploring and swung us in the way of a guided day tour instead. I have tried to capture China in the most realistic way possible and resisted the artistic approach. I hope you enjoy your virtual tour.
