Day 5: Shanghai

In the center of the old city is a extremely touristy area that is still well worth a visit. All the buildings are done in a traditional Chinese style, there is a very cool garden and, in the middle of the pond, is tea house (the building in the foreground on the left) that is accessible via a zig-zagging bridge. Also, there is a great shop for buying inexpensive jewelry especially pearls.
Most importantly (just kidding...kind of), if you look closely in the center of the photo, the shop in the middle is a Starbucks Coffee. You may have heard of it?
