Nocturne

Iconic! A view of Pudong from across the river, at a swank 5th-floor wine bar on the Bund. But below is something even more interesting about nocturnal Shanghai. I'm not sure if you'll be make out this glimpse of the upcoming summer I spotted on my way from Bund to Yuyuan metro station: outdoor karaoke on TVs, some mounted on the backs of motorcycles, with groups of people gathered around in an otherwise lightless parkway. Along with several karaoke stations a clearing played host to groups of people practicing swing dancing, all in the warm dark!
