The largest city in China? Who knew? It was really interesting to be there during a holiday and see how thoroughly things are shut down. Even if it did make it a little but boring. The holiday was national day, celebrating 60 years of communist rule. gGiven the overwhelming presence of commerce it challenges expectations for what communism feels like as a visitor. The history of the city is also getting harder and harder to spot and it makes New York seem homey and quaint.
