Virtual Tour: Shanghai with Jenny - brought to you by Girl Travel Tours

Описание: Today's Shanghai through the Eyes of a Country-girl Immigrant

Jenny was a typical girl from the Chinese countryside of Jianxi Province until she moved to Shanghai in 2013. She’ll share her story of growing up on the family farm until being called to make money for the family, first as a worker in a factory and then finding an opportunity as an English-speaking guide and tour operator in the metropolis of Shanghai.

Through Jenny’s eyes, you’ll learn of the story of China’s rise from a vastly poor nation to the world’s second-largest economy with a focus on Shanghai. You’ll explore her experiences in the village in Jianxi before moving to Shanghai, how Shanghai has evolved in the last 10 years and its plans for the future.

With Jenny as your guide, you’ll get a first-hand understanding of the immigrants’ journey to China’s urban centers as well as Shanghai’s rise to the present and its untethered potential. Along the way you’ll peer into traditional Chinese culture and how it blends with Shanghai’s modern lifestyle.

Some topics you’ll explore:
• Traditional Chinese Village living – A time before China’s prosperity and today for many
• Shanghai through the eyes of an immigrant – the amazing, the scary and the challenges
• Modernization of Shanghai – the iconic sites that highlight current prosperity
• The future of Shanghai – Lingang District - China’s blueprint for the future
