Shanghai

If one simply counts heads, this is the biggest city in the biggest country on Earth.
If one simply scans statistics, this is China's capital of commerce, industry, and finance.
But numbers don't tell the whole Shanghai story. Shanghai has a colonial past more intense than that of any other city in China, save Hong Kong, and this legacy gives it a dramatic character, visible in the streets today. But the city is not only a museum of East meeting West on Chinese soil. Shanghai has overnight become one of the world's great modern capitals, the one city that best shows what the whole nation is becoming at the dawn of the 21st century. The very pulse of Shanghai is the pulse of Asia's future. Shanghai has not always been much of a delight to tour, but it is now.
