China

“An entry that needs its own chapter. Scale, contrast, history, and the strange feeling of being somewhere that contains multitudes you can't summarize.”

Highlights

• ·The Great Wall at a quieter section, stretching into mountains in both directions
• ·Shanghai's Bund: colonial European on one bank, ultramodern skyline on the other
• ·Navigating a city of tens of millions where very little is in English
• ·The sheer, undeniable scale of everything. Nothing in China is small
