Maps of China from people around China

shanghai_mapChina.jpg While on our regular traverses through the internets, we came across these hilarious netizen-made maps detailing what people from specific regions of China think about the other regions around China. And if you've ever been in a conversation with a Chinese person, you'll know they're full of opinions about what their Henan brethren are like, or what those damn Shaanxi people are always up to.

Up above is the views of China's most important cities - Hong Kong, Beijing (as well as a specific one for Beijing women hoping to get married) and Shanghai - click on the map to make it bigger.

We especially like how the Shanghai one is pretty misshapen... we guess only Shanghainese people wouldn't care really what the rest of the country really looks like anyway?

Also, in case you needed a reference, here's a regular map of China:

    All that is missing is a Shanghai girl's view of China. THAT would be a riot.



    I am surprised that the BJ, SH and HK views of China weren't more like the "Texan's view of the US" maps, where Texas takes up 90% of the territory and the other regions all basically orbit around it.
