Eye on the time: The man behind Shanghai’s iconic clock tower
The Customs House clock tower on the Bund is a landmark in Shanghai. The clock's chimes have echoed across the Huangpu River since 1928 and are as integral to the lives of locals as the chimes of Big Ben are to Londoners. Always keeping an eye on the clock is Wei Yunsi, its fourth keeper.

Shanghai
Shanghai is about 6400 miles from California and is the largest city in the People's Republic of China. with over 23 million people it is the largest city in the world. Located on the East Coast of China at the mouth of the Yangtze River it is also the busiest container port in the world.
The Peninsula Hotel is a five-star luxury hotel on the Bund. In Asia the number 4 is considered an unlucky number and if a hotel has a 4th floor, like a 13th floor in the West, people don't like to stay on it. The number four is very similar to the word for death. But if you stay on the 4th floor (or any floor with the number 4 in it) chances you see more Westerners than Asians. Red is considered a lucky color in China. At one time wedding dresses were in red.
Shanghai grew from a fishing village and textile town to an economic powerhouse because of the port. After the Treaty of Nanking in 1842 the city grew and by the 1930s was the financial center of the Asia Pacific region. It is rich with tourist attractions from the Bund with its historic buildings to the Pudong across the river with its futuristic skyline. They have a joke around Shanghai --- what is the city's national bird ... the crane. As in construction cranes. In the past two decades Shanghai has been one the fastest growing cities in the world. Last year the city's GDP grew to $297 billion
May is an ideal time to visit Shanghai as the temperatures mid-70s. July is usually the most hot and humid in the low 90s and the coolest month is January with temperatures dipping into the low 30s.
In the early morning dozens of men can be seen flying kites along the Bund. Some are simple while other are exotic -- even resembling dragons - a favorite symbol in China.
Watching groups of Chinese practicing tai chi in white silk pajamas along the Bund is impressive. Others jog by in a display of stamina and determination. There are also morning sword exercises but don't give them too much coffee with that pointed weapon swinging around! Where is Jackie Chen when you need him?!
The Bund is eye candy for those fond of historic architecture.
The Astor House Hotel opened in 1846 was said to be the first Western hotel in China. It moved next to Garden Bridge in 1857. Guests have included Einstein and Charlie Chaplin.
The Sasson House built in 1926 --- No relation to the If you don't look good - we don't look good - Sasson. Although in this beautiful building which is now a Fairmount Hotel - everything looks better. There is Lalique glass artwork and stunning architectural details throughout.
The Yuyuan Market is a popular tourist shopping center was originally know for its 15 century temple, The City God Temple. Today lots of Chinese arts and crafts. With over 100 shops and restaurants -- many familiar Western brands from Starbucks to Dairy Queen. The Chinese claim that ice cream was invented in China about 2000 BC when Chinese packed a soft milk and rice mixture in the snow.
Long ago silk making was a closely guarded secret in China. Anyone who gave the secret away could be punished by death.
Gossip Girl's Leighton Messter and Ed Westwick were at the opening of the new Harry Winston store in Shanghai -- the largest store of the group. Ed's Gossip Girl character, Chuck Bass, proposed to Blair Waldof with a Harry Winston 8 ct diamond ring set in platinum.
Following the opening ceremony, a gala dinner was held on the Taiping Lake nearby. Featured was a stunning fashion show, with models draped in diamonds from Harry Winston's Ultimate Adornments collection, and
Chinese traditional dresses custom designed by Judy Hua, one of the
most promising fashion designers in China. A special performance by
top Asian pop singer Jay Chou, who dazzled the audience as he
played from his famed white piano, singing the songs that showed
his distinguished talent in integrating western elements with
traditional Chinese music.
About an hour and a half drive from Shanghai is Benhai golf club. There are two 18-hole courses. The Lake Course is a Links style, designed by Peter Thomson, five times British Open Champion. It combines bunkers, fairways, and lakes. The Forest Course is 18 holes set in a tranquil forest environment.

Walking the Bund in Shanghai (Day Time)
The Bund or Waitan / 外滩 / 外灘 (literally: Outer Beach) is a waterfront area in central Shanghai (The word bund means an embankment or an embanked quay). The area centers on a section of Zhongshan Road (East-1 Zhongshan Road) within the former Shanghai International Settlement, which runs along the western bank of the Huangpu River in the eastern part of Huangpu District. The area along the river faces the modern skyscrapers of Lujiazui in the Pudong District. The Bund usually refers to the buildings and wharves on this section of the road, as well as some adjacent areas. It is one of the most famous tourist destinations in Shanghai. Building heights are restricted in the area.
The Bund stretches one mile (1.6 km) along the bank of the Huangpu River. Traditionally, the Bund begins at Yan'an Road (formerly Edward VII Avenue) in the south and ends at Waibaidu Bridge (formerly Garden Bridge) in the north, which crosses Suzhou Creek. The Bund houses 52 buildings of various architectural styles, generally Eclecticist, but with some buildings displaying predominantly Romanesque Revival, Gothic Revival, Renaissance Revival, Baroque Revival, Neo-Classical or Beaux-Arts styles, and a number in Art Deco style (Shanghai has one of the richest collections of Art Deco architectures in the world).
The Shanghai Bund has dozens of historical buildings, lining the Huangpu River, that once housed numerous banks and trading houses from the United Kingdom, France, the United States, Italy, Russia, Germany, Japan, the Netherlands, and Belgium, as well as the consulates of Russia and Britain, a newspaper, the Shanghai Club and the Masonic Club. The Bund lies north of the old, walled city of Shanghai. It was initially a British settlement; later the British and American settlements were combined in the International Settlement. Magnificent commercial buildings in the Beaux Arts style sprung up in the years around the turn of the 20th century as the Bund developed into a major financial center of east Asia. Directly to the south, and just northeast of the old walled city, the former French Bund (the quai de France, part of the Shanghai French Concession) was of comparable size to the Bund but functioned more as a working harbourside.
By the 1940s, the Bund housed the headquarters of many, if not most, of the major financial institutions operating in China, including the big four national banks in the Republic of China era. However, with the Communist victory in the Chinese civil war, many of the financial institutions were moved out gradually in the 1950s, and the hotels and clubs closed or converted to other uses. The statues of colonial figures and foreign worthies which had dotted the riverside were also removed.
In the late 1970s and early 1980s, with the thawing of economic policy in the People's Republic of China, buildings on the Bund were gradually returned to their former uses.

CHINA 中國 SHANGHAI SELF-GUIDED TOUR & AMAZING EATS // VLOG#81
We didn't get Shanghai'd but we're sure glad we're here. This city surprises and amazes at every turn. We wander the Old City of Shanghai and the Ancient City of Shanghai. We see folks practicing Tai Chi and you know Kate can't resist exploring a Shanghai supermarket. The architecture, both old and new, takes our breath away. We find a 250 year old Tea House during an impromptu tour of Shanghai with a local named Chen (who also happens to sell pearls and jewelry...no we don't buy anything). Now this may surprise you, but we also find an amazing and giant meal after checking out one of Shanghai's awesome parks. This whole city is just beautiful and is organized and easy to navigate. We also brave the Shanghai Metro and we find it so easy and cheap to use that it's a solid go to for transportation around Shanghai. To close out the week we sample a few more local offerings. 中國
