浦西 Puxi (上海 Shanghai) by Jakob Montrasio

The centre of Shanghai has changed radically since the opening up of China. It has now become the centre of Chinese development. Down town Shanghai was originally developed by foreign traders who set up in the city during the 19th Century. Today Shanghai remains a major key in China's economy. The centre of the city has filled up with new sky scrapers. This picture shows the Puxi area of Shanghai. This is the old down town area.
