Mental. </p> http://shanghaiist.com/2007/10/07/hengdian_world.php#comment-1214413 http://shanghaiist.com/2007/10/07/hengdian_world.php#comment-1214413 Comments Mon, 08 Oct 2007 01:02:04 +0800 <p>It seems that nature alone is never good enough for man! Trash it with human waste and it becomes a tourist attraction! Truly heartbreaking.</p> http://shanghaiist.com/2007/10/07/hengdian_world.php#comment-1214353 http://shanghaiist.com/2007/10/07/hengdian_world.php#comment-1214353 Comments Sun, 07 Oct 2007 21:31:42 +0800 <p>Wow, thanks for linking to ma pics! :) By the way, the studio is 'split' up all over that town there, you have to drive at least 10 minutes from set to set - so if you don't own a car, you gotta take a taxi every time. Then it's easily not 60 but over 100 kuai, but it's absolutely worth a trip anyway. Be sure to go there with someone who speaks chinese - I have not seen ONE laowai except me there, seems like a 'secret' cool place only known to chinese so far. Like Sanya!</p>
