Experience Shanghai Culture
Experience Shanghai Culture with Monica and Wayne from Air New Zealand.
Shanghai is an exciting cosmopolitan city that's home to 23 million people. It's rapidly become a global hub for technology, fashion, commerce and culture - visitors to the city are spoilt for choice with great sightseeing, divine food, fabulous shopping and a number of diverse cultural experiences at their finger tips.
Shanghai has its own style and chic charm, once known as the Paris of the East, and there are still plenty of wide leafy streets with grand old Parisian-style buildings - but for sampling local culture, with its energy and charm at it's best you really need to visit Fuxing Park in the morning.

Can cultural heritage prevail in Shanghai's rapidly changing landscape? | Witness Documentary
Zhou Guixiang is the leader of a dilapidated opera theatre in one of Shanghai's last remaining informal housing settlements. Having endured dwindling audiences and soaring rent for decades, Zhou and her troupe have refused to follow the fate of similar cultural spaces in the city.
But when authorities order the theatre demolished to make way for redevelopment, Zhou and her troupe are given one month to leave the premises.
The opera is more than just a way of life for the residents. It's home to a community of marginalised ageing artists struggling for space in a rapidly modernising city.

Experience Shanghai Culture with Monica and Wayne from Air New Zealand.
Shanghai is an exciting cosmopolitan city that's home to 23 million people. It's rapidly become a global hub for technology, fashion, commerce and culture - visitors to the city are spoilt for choice with great sightseeing, divine food, fabulous shopping and a number of diverse cultural experiences at their finger tips.
Shanghai has its own style and chic charm, once known as the Paris of the East, and there are still plenty of wide leafy streets with grand old Parisian-style buildings - but for sampling local culture, with its energy and charm at it's best you really need to visit Fuxing Park in the morning.
