A new shopping mall has opened up within 30 mins walk of my home (in the Shanghai suburbs). This isn't a really affluent area, Shanghai has a plethora of massive malls downtown, and yet this mall has great shops, 8 floors (inc. roof garden and 2 parking levels) and some of my favourite restaurants chains (Western, Thai, Japanese etc.) and 8 screen IMAX (inc. films in English). There's also my favourite chocolate shop .. the exquisite Godiva, however at US$80 for a box of 20 chocolates I had to forego them on this occasion !
It comes complete with an animatronic Dinosaur theme (currently they are currently sauntering through Xmas trees) 4 storey high 'Trees', dinosaur ribcage bridges and suspended Pterodactyls. Which is actually pretty cool and the information boards are educating both the young and elderly alike. It's a really cool place !
All A7rii and either Voigtlander 15mm or Nikon 105/2.5 AiS.
