I went to Shanghai! 


> Best part: getting to go up in the Oriental Pearl TV Tower http://www.travelchinaguide.com/attraction/shanghai/oriental_pearl.htm .

> Worst part: spending hours walking around the Waitan and NanjingLv in 44C (111F) heat. I have a sunburn. 

Tired on the Shanghai tour

>Middle-ish part: getting to walk around the vast, maze-like history museum under the Tower that I didn't even know existed. I really had to rush through it, but it was very cool.


[Smithsonian Magazine has a 360 degree view of the Shanghai skyline, including the landmark Oriental Pearl.  http://microsite.smithsonianmag.com/content/Shanghai-Panorama/shanghai-1.html
