Features: I, a native Shanghai woman, love this city because I can swim like a fish in the surging and noisy sea of people, letting the colorful scenery flow into every crevice of my senses like water. I enjoy aimlessly wandering through the bustling streets, not stopping for anyone, immersed in the carefree and comfortable freedom. In the streets and alleys of Shanghai, there are many romantic shops like dreams, poetry, and paintings. These quaint shops are either filled with exotic charm, purely ethnic style, or uniquely original and personalized. They are like a misty painting deep in the concrete jungle, a touch of gentle tenderness, a fleeting dream, elegantly and vividly interpreting the city's famous inclusiveness and diversity. The owners of these quaint shops are foreigners, people from other places, and locals. But what they do in common is that they all unconsciously chose Shanghai for various reasons and finally fulfilled their dream of running their own beloved business in this city.
