Shanghai Travel Vlog: Exploring Columbia Circle & West Bund
Is This really Shanghai? Didn’t Expect This in China…
Destination:ChinaCity:ShanghaiPopulation:24.9 million 
Hey it's Alex Again! Join me on my second day exploring the incredible city of Shanghai - my very first time in China! Today was all about soaking in the unique blend of modern charm and historical depth this city has to offer.
We started the day wandering through the Columbia Circle, a hidden gem filled with lush greenery and peaceful vibes - a surprising slice of nature in the heart of the city. From there, we headed to the iconic West Bund, where we dove into the fascinating history of Shanghai’s architectural development and saw how this city grew into the metropolis it is today.
To wrap up the day, we explored a vibrant shopping district, full of color, energy, and local culture and yes, I treated myself to a little gift...
