1 Shanghai Metro Line #4, #6, #8, #9 Opens

It's so interesting to hear what is happening in China, especially Shanghai these days!
Despite the fact that I am Chinese myself and Shanghainese, I had no idea about the underground stations. I've only recently found your blog, through some excessive googling around, I think I was googling for Valentine's Day in Shanghai, since I was wondering is it really that big of an event.

It's so sad that I know less about Shanghai than some foreigners or tourists! It hink I've only been to Shanghai 10-13 times out of my whole life. Though I love how when I visit there it always changes! It keeps on fascinating me. On the other hand I've lived my whole life in Helsinki, this small city up in the north, the capital of Finland. Though Shanghai is beautiful, modern and everything else exciting. I have no interest in actually residing in the city. I don't think it's that good of a place for children to grow up in. There is a very... how should I say stern social hierarchy, of course this is based utterly on my own opinion. The vast difference of poor and rich is so ridiculous, but I guess this is the case of all large cities.
