Pudong
Pudong is one of those Chinese place names that most visitors know well before
setting foot in Shanghai. In the space of a mere 20 years, the district has gone
from boggy farmland to China's economic powerhouse, a place where Maglev
trains glide swiftly into a universe of soaring skyscrapers. Sky-high observation
platforms and good museums make it worth the visit.
