36 Hours in Shanghai

A recent New York Times article has created much buzz in Shanghai.  It seems that most people have heard about it, although few have had the opportunity to read it.  The Times has a regular travel segment called "36 Hours," and in March the NYT spent 36 Hours in Shanghai.

I did a quick google search, and found an article written in October of 2006.  Not what I expected, I read that article first and then moved onto the more recent article.  The difference between the two was quite interesting.  The initial article read like a typical guide to Shanghai - visit the Bund, tour the French Concession, and check out the skyscrapers of Pudong.  The second article still took the typical - eat fancy food on the Bund, and ride to the top of the World Financial Center.  But it also delved a little deeper, into sites I hadn't discovered until I'd been here for a few years.  Maybe a second trip deserves a deeper look?

Or maybe the city just needs more than 36 hours.
