May 11th, 2015
The date is May 10th, 2015, and a light early-summer rain sprinkles down on my unprotected head as I walk for hours down the grey-tinged streets of Shanghai. I've just come back from an epic tour of Inner Mongolia and, while running on caffeine and determination, am on a mission to document one of the most prevelant and memorable phenomena I have noticed during my time in Shanghai: the extreme gap between (and incredible juxtaposition) of Shanghai's ultra-wealthy and derelict. In this week's blog post I am going to venture away from my typical written-post format and instead post an interactive photo-gallery which illustrates the large gap between the have and have-nots in Shanghai. In American culture a common phrase exists, "A picture is worth a thousand words", so without further adieu please check out the photo-gallery below.
Until next time,
Adam Dalton
