Today we took a trip to the Communist Party Museum where the Communist Party of China was founded. It was a lot more understated that we expected, to be honest, but probably the most interesting aspect of this museum is how you get there (we have a great map drawn by Michelle that we will share when we get to Australia).
You go to the Xintiandi shopping district, a really nice / upscale outdoor shopping area, go past the starbucks and a series of outdoor restaurants and take a left before reaching the multi-plex theater and mall. If you get to the antiques dealers you have gone to far. Probably more than any other trip so far in China that one best sums up the contradiction.
For today, it appears we have nice weather so hopefully a nice walk to century park and a ferry ride are in order.
