Will All You Clones Please Line Up, Hong Kong to Shanghai

The Chinese Dandy, French Concession

Individuals vs. The Masses, Jing An District
Behind Plaza 66 lies a quiet little street called Nan Yang Lu [南阳路] that’s usually only used by scooters, as most people end up in the big malls right off of Nanjing Xi Lu. But I was going to pick … Continue reading
