Maglev Train

Shanghai Transrapid is the first commercial high-speed maglev line in the world. The system and trains were built to the Transrapid standard. Construction began in March 2001, and public service commenced on 1 January 2004. The Shanghai Maglev Train line runs from Longyang Road station in Pudong, on the Shanghai subway line 2 to Pudong International Airport. The journey takes 7 minutes and 20 seconds to complete the distance of 30 km on the Shanghai Magnetic Levitation Demonstration Operation Line. A train can reach 350 km/h (220 mph) in 2 minutes, with the maximum normal operation speed of 431 km/h (268 mph) reached thereafter. During a test run on 12 November 2006, a maglev vehicle achieved a Chinese record speed of 501 km/h (311 mph).

Farewell Shanghai

Xian Qiang Fang

Farewell dinner: Housed on the third floor of an old Tudor mansion, this luxurious dinner spot in west Shanghai, popular with the well-heeled Hongqiao set, has to be seen to be believed. The cavernous, incense-scented loft is littered with antique Chinese and Asian furniture, from large Buddha statues and silk wallpapers to Ming Dynasty tables and chairs, all the result of the designer's travels through Asia. It was here the group bid farewell to Tony Du, our famous tour guide and wished two group members, Chantay and Elizabeth *HAPPY BIRTHDAY*
