What I love about cities like Shanghai is that although they are modernizing and moving extremely quickly, you can still find the traditional aspects. We began our day at the Jade Buddha Temple, which was incredibly beautiful. One of my favorite courses in university was World Religions, and getting to see a place of worship like this one is an experience I truly appreciate.
Next we went to "Old Shanghai" which reminded me of the Hutongs from Beijing. However it was a bit too crowded and touristy for me. I would still recommend going, because it does reflect what this city once looked like!
