Most tourists will face the flwg problems: 1) Tout - Try walking down Nanjing Road and tourists will be harrassed by touts every few steps. The touts are very persistent and out to cheat the tourists. This will only give Shanghai a bad name. 2) Beggars - Most streets have beggars. Some beggars even chased the tourist for money. 3) Spitting - They even spat in restaurants not just on the streets. 4) Traffic - Pedestrain have no right of way even though the green traffic lights are in their favour. Some cars dont stop at red traffic lights. 5) People can be more polite in Shanghai. 6) Lastly - Why have a Maglev train for only 30 km journey costing billion of dollars ??? |
