Yuyuan Garden In Shanghai | China（上海 - 豫园）
Yuyuan Garden is a famous classical garden located in Anren Jie, Shanghai. It was finished in 1577 by a government officer of the Ming Dynasty (1368-1644) named Pan Yunduan. Yu in Chinese means pleasing and satisfying, and this garden was specially built for Pan's parents as a place for them to enjoy a tranquil and happy time in their old age.
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.

Our final destination, during our trip to China, was Shanghai. We enjoyed the Bund, a museum, and the amazing ancient Yu Garden. We ate at a food court that had an astonishing variety of choices (see the kid contemplating the crab).

2018 China: Pingyao Shuanglin Temple
Located in the Qiaotou Village about six kilometers (four miles) to Pingyao Ancient City, the Shuanglin Temple is reputed to be the 'ancient painted sculptures museum'. It houses more than 2,000 colorful sculptures reflecting the exquisite skills of the artisans of the Song, Yuan, Ming and Qing Dynasties. In 1997, it was included in the World Heritage List by UNESCO as an important cultural site of Ping Yao City in 1997.
Originally, Shuanglin Temple was called the Zhongdu Temple but it was renamed Shuanglin during the Song Dynasty (960-1127). In Chinese, Shuang means two or double, and Lin, forest. The temple got its name from a Buddhist story. According to the Buddhist sutra, Sakyamuni who was the founder of Buddhism, entered nirvana under two trees; Hence, its name Shuanglin.
Reconstructed in 571, the Shuanglin Temple has a history of about 1,400 years. It consists of ten large and small halls, and the sutra chanting hall and the monks' rooms. The ten halls include the Heavenly Kings' Hall, the Arhats' Hall, the Mahavira Hall (Da Xiong Bao Dian), and the One-Thousand Buddha Hall, the Sakyamuni Hall, the Bodhisattva Hall, the Ti-tsang Bodhisattva Hall, the Guan Yu's Hall and two other halls. Guan Yu was a famous general of Shu during the Period of Three Kingdoms. Later, he would be worshipped as a god.
Shanghai French Concession Walking Tour
The Shanghai French Concession / Concession française de Changhaï / 上海法租界 was a foreign concession in Shanghai from 1849 until 1943, which progressively expanded in the late 19th and early 20th centuries. The concession came to an end in 1943 when the Vichy French government signed it over to the pro-Japanese puppet government in Nanking. For much of the 20th century, the area covered by the former French Concession remained the premier residential and retail district of Shanghai, and was also one of the centres of Catholicism in China. Despite re-development over the last few decades, the area retains a distinct character, and is a popular tourist destination.
The French Concession was established on 6 April 1849, when the French Consul to Shanghai, Charles de Montigny, obtained a proclamation from Lin Kouei (麟桂), the Circuit Intendant (Tao-tai/Daotai, effectively governor) of Shanghai, which conceded certain territory for a French settlement. The extent of the French Concession at the time of establishment extended south to the Old City's moat, north to the Yangjingbang canal (Yang-king-pang, now Yan'an Road), west to the Temple of Guan Yu (关帝庙) and the Zhujia Bridge (褚家桥), and east to the banks of the Huangpu River between the Guangdong-Chaozhou Union (Koang'tong-Tchao-tcheou kong-hoan) and the mouth of the Yangjingbang canal. The French Concession effectively occupied a narrow collar of land around the northern end of the Old City, south of the British settlement. At an area of 66 hectares (986 mu), the French Concession was about a third of the size of the British settlement at that time. A further small strip of riverside land to the east of the Old City was added in 1861, to allow the construction of the quai de France, to service shipping between China and France.
From 1914 until its abolition, the French Concession covered the north-eastern part of today's Xuhui District and the western part of Huangpu District (the former Luwan District), occupying the centre, south, and west of urban Shanghai. A small strip extended eastward along the rue du Consulat, now the East Jinling Road, to the Quai de France, now East-2 Zhongshan Road, which runs along the Huangpu River to the south of the Bund.
To the south-east of the French Concession was the walled Chinese city. To the north was the British concession, later part of the Shanghai International Settlement. The British and French quarters were separated by several canals: in the east, this was Yangjingbang, a creek flowing into the Huangpu River. These canals were later filled in and became Avenue Edward VII in the east and Avenue Foch in the west, both now part of Yan'an Road. To the south the French Concession was bounded by the Zhaojiabang canal (now filled in as Zhaojiabang Road and Xujiahui Road).

[한국어 정보]
내가 제일 먼저 찾은 곳은 충칭시의 상징인 해방비다. 1945년 중일전쟁의 승전을 기념하기위해 세운 기념비인데, 이제는 역사적인 기념보다는 쇼핑센터와 식당들이 밀접한 최고의 상업지구로 유명하다. 충칭은 공민당 정부의 마지막 수도가 있었던 곳으로 현대사의 유적이 많다. 대표적인 곳이 이곳 홍암촌인데, 중일전쟁당시 공산군 사령부가 있던 곳이라고 한다. 자신의 농장을 혁명군에 헌납한 요국모 여사를 기념하기 위해 만든 곳인데, 여사가 살았던 집을 전시실로 쓰고 있다. 한때 이곳은 공민당과 공산당이 손을 잡은 국공 합작이 이뤄진 곳이기도 하다. 길 가운데 있는 이 나무를 경계로 왼편은 공민당 정부가 오른편은 공산당 혁명정부가 있었다는데, 나무를 사이에 두고 이념을 나누었다는 것이 아이러니하게 느껴졌다.

I found the first place is the symbol of liberation Vida Chongqing City. Inde monument being erected in 1945 to commemorate the victory of the war, now well known as the best commercial district, shopping centers and restaurants are close, rather than historical commemoration. Chongqing has many places as the ruins of modern history was the last capital of the government per citizen. This place is a typical village inde hongam referred to as Sino War Communist headquarters were there. Created to commemorate John's where Mrs. gukmo a contributor to his farm in the Revolutionary Army, writes Mrs. lived in the house showrooms. Once there is also a place where citizens Communist Party and Pu grab the hand yirwojin venture. I have a tree in the middle of the left side of the road as the boundary of the government party had the right of citizens Communist revolutionary government, across the ideological split the wood is felt to be ironic.

我找到的第一个地方是解放重庆维达市的象征。不知疲倦的纪念碑竖立在1945年为纪念战争，现在众所周知的最佳商业区的胜利，购物中心和餐馆都关闭，而不是历史的纪念。重庆有现代历史的遗迹是每公民政府的最后资金很多地方。这个地方是被称为中美战争共产党的总部在那里一个典型的村庄不知疲倦hongam。创建为纪念约翰的太太在哪里一个gukmo贡献者，他在革命军农场，写住的房子展厅夫人。一旦还有一个地方，公民党和浦抢到手yirwojin风险。我在路上作为政府一方的边界左侧中间的树有公民的权利共产党革命政府，跨意识形态的分裂木材认为是讽刺。
