Analysis:

Shanghai is an increasingly prosperous city. It is my country's largest commercial and financial center and an important international port city in the Western Pacific region. It has extensive internal and external connections, relatively developed transportation and communications, and is attracting more and more attention.

Shanghai is located in the alluvial plain of the Yangtze River Delta and is named after Shanghai Pu, a tributary of the Wusong River. During the Spring and Autumn Period, it belonged to Wu. During the Warring States Period, local fishermen created the fishing tool "Hu" and called this area Hudu. During the Eastern Jin Dynasty, the Hudu Fort was built here to prevent pirates, so Shanghai was shortened to "Hu". Shanghai is a famous historical and cultural city in China, known as "the link between rivers and seas and the capital of the southeast." "Look at Xi'an for two thousand years of history, look at Beijing for one thousand years of history, and look at Shanghai for one hundred years of history." Shanghai is the "epitome" of modern China and has a rich historical heritage. As the birthplace of the party, it adds a unique brilliance to this city. There are so many influential figures gathered here. The footprints of Sun Yat-sen, Soong Ching Ling, Mao Zedong, Zhou Enlai, Lu Xun, Li Hongzhang, Chiang Kai-shek, Song Ziwen and many other celebrities are scattered in different residential buildings throughout Shanghai, which contain intriguing stories from the past.

Shanghai has a kind of temperament that is unmatched by any city, which is her "foreign style". Shanghai opened as a port in 1843, forming its cultural characteristics of being a mixture of different places and a blend of Chinese and Western cultures. The establishment of Shanghai's emerging national markets for financial securities, futures trading, foreign exchange and technology has established Shanghai's status as a national resource allocation center and has also accelerated the pace of Shanghai's economy to integrate with international standards. In October 2001, the APEC meeting was held in Shanghai. Shanghai's status as one of the international economic, financial and trade centers in the new century has been initially established!

Today’s Shanghai is a Shanghai-style cultural city that is extremely modern while still retaining traditional Chinese characteristics. The prosperous Shanghai is full of its unique charm, which is fascinating - the old-fashioned Western buildings on the Bund and the modern skyscrapers in Pudong complement each other; the sound of hymns in Xujiahui Cathedral, the curl of smoke from the Jade Buddha Temple; the old mahjong people downstairs across the street, the alleys Football boys in the mass theater; Shanghai opera and burlesque in the mass theater; symphony and ballet in the Grand Theater; local delicacies in the old hotel, Cantonese tea in Xinghualou, snacks from all over Yunnan Road, French cuisine in the Red House, Little Shaoxing Three Yellow Chicken, the KFC of the United States; the teahouses in the old streets of Shanghai, and the bars on Hengshan Road, a combination of Chinese and Western, new and old favorites, each has its own splendor. As night falls, neon lights shine, and night Shanghai comes to life. The jazz at the Peace Hotel and the silk and bamboo music in Yu Garden remind people of the old dreams of old Shanghai in the 1920s and 1930s. The rhythm of modern disco and the proliferation of Internet cafes bring people back again. Bringing back the modern civilization of the 21st century...

Entering the 21st century in Shanghai, prosperity and openness are sown here, including the Oriental Pearl TV Tower, Jin Mao Tower, Shanghai International Convention Center, and Pudong International Airport. Not only do they depict the broad prospects of an international metropolis, Shanghai in the 21st century is where glory and dreams converge. The Shanghai Museum, Shanghai Grand Theater, and City Planning Museum all promote the broad sentiments of an international metropolis. Shanghai in the new century is a modern, international and fashionable specimen. She will warmly welcome friends from all over the world!
