Buy/Sell Second Hand Equipment

If you have limited budget but like to try different kind of lens on you digital camera, you probably have some experience in buying/selling lens on ebay, through photography equipment forum or at camera shops.

I'm not a frequent trader but did it regularly. Though we should not have any preference to people from different countries, the fact is that the price in the same conditions lens (eg) is generally higher in HK or PRC market than that of US or EU countries especially they are sold by individual not camera shops. It is like a rule as per my so many years' buy and sell experience.

If you are going to buy or sell camera equipment, personally suggest you trade with the latter one(s).

Historical Architecture

I always spend my weekend morning on walking around the city but always at the same area - French Concession. I like the area of An Fu road, Wu Kang roand, Fu Xing West road, Wu Yuan road and Xing Guo road. Walk and walk, you will arrive there and see this historical building, Wu Kang Building.

Run Away from Shanghai

I really like down town of Shanghai, but sometimes you want to run away from the crowds there. Though it's just a one day vacation, I really enjoy the XiHu of HangZhou - remember to go there only on working day but not holiday.
