Shanghai Illuminants

From Nanjing, we took the high-speed train to Shanghai. The train ride used to take upwards of 4 hours, and now, they've shaved it down to one and a half hours. Here we are clocking in at around 215 miles/hour.


Our stop in Shanghai was brief but we managed to pack in a lot. First things first, there was a trip to the Din Tai Fung for the best xiaolongbao (Shanghai soup dumplings) in town. Did you know that you can now get these delicious pork soup filled dumplings at their L.A. or Seattle branches? How lucky for us!
