A shot of the famous skyline of Pudong's Lujiazui financial district, just before the decorative lights are turned off.
And again sorry, due to flickr's inability to properly save local language tags since late Sept. 2022 and no fix in sight (no UTF-8 support in tags, it appears only characters from the stone-age "Code Page 437" work correctly), the tags are incomplete - I had to omit some tags, and because the 浦东 causes flickr's tag parser to create gibberish it is placed at the end of the list.

And sorry, due to flickr's inability to properly save local language tags since late Sept. 2022 and no fix in sight (no UTF-8 support in tags, it appears only characters from the stone-age "Code Page 437" work correctly), the tags are incomplete - I had to omit some tags, because the 场 character in IAPM广场 and 上海环贸广场 causes flickr's tag parser to create gibberish in all following tags.
The "Nanshi Qu" assigned by flickr as location name is also wrong, a long standing issue with flickr's trashy location database.

The two angel statues in the Lujiazui Central Green Area (陆家嘴中心绿地). In the background the SWFC and Jin Mao Tower - before somebody asks, the Shanghai Tower is completely hidden behind Jin Mao from this point of view.
Blue tone by setting the WB to "Tungsten" and flashing the angel statues. WIth AWB and no flash you'd get green angels and a brown sky - yuck!

Small and cute figurines, about 5 cm (2 inches) tall. Shop display in Tianzifang.
Tianzifang (Chin: 田子坊): this is an area of small narrow alleys or "nong" (弄) which has been redeveloped and now features arts shops, restaurants and bars and also enough souvenir shops to make it a one-stop shopping location on the hunt for the "typical" Chinese souvenir. Get hungry while souvenir hunting? 10 different countries feature their respective national cuisine...

Fangbang Road (方浜路) is a narrow road in Huangpu District. Parts of the street in the vicinity of Yu Yuan are developed for tourism as "Shanghai Old Street" (上海老街). These parts start behind this gate (east), at the intersection of Central Fangbang Road and Henan South Road (河南南路).
The picture was taken in 2005 and the abundance of bicycles in the picture seems to fulfill a China-stereotype. Actually the road was crowded with cars - you have to wait some time to shoot the "expected" image...

Buddha is happy - he has something to hold: A vintage Shanghai 1120-410 wristwatch, with a rather rare black dial. Handwound 17-jewel SS1 movement. The movement is marked EL, thus produced in Dec. 1969. Here is another one, with a pretty common white dial and 2 years older.

The Shanghai Gymnasium is also known as Shanghai Indoor Stadium and Shanghai Grand Stage, a venue for Rock concerts.
Shanghai Gymnasium is one of China's largest indoor sports venues. It's construction was completed in 1975. In 1999 the gymnasium underwent renovation and expanded its functions for large-scale on-stage performances. Another brush-up was given in 2005, as the Gymnasium was the main venue of the 2005 World Table Tennis Champoinships.

And the muscle powered vehicle in front is just my bike...😁
This old steam locomotive was placed there as memorial to the time when the Xuhui riverside promenade and park (徐汇滨江公园) used to be a busy warehousing and cargo area.
The locomotive was made in 1987 by the Datong Locomotive Works (大同机车工厂). It is a 2-8-2 "JS" (建设, Jianshe = Construction), in the revised "B" specification, build no. 8145.
Of the "JS" in total 1,916 units were made in two production runs (not only at Datong), from 1957-1965 and again 1981 until the final end of production in 1988/9.

Detail of the Exhibition Center (展览中心). Built after the revolution with Russian help (one can see this from the architectural style). Located on Yan An Road (延安路). Used for art exhibitions, trade fairs are held at the new Pudong Exhibition Center (aka EXPO center, though it has nothing to do with the EXPO 2010).

Car ferry 兴信 (Xing Xin) crossing the Yangzi River towards Chongming Island. These Ferries are quite slow, about 20 km/h (11 knots) only.
Click here to see a high speed ferry on the same route.
Taken while doing a dead cheap 2-hour Yangzi River cruise using one of these slow ferries (total cost, ferry only: 24 CNY, about 3 EUR or 3.50 USD) with the purpose to take some ship photos on the way.
