588 Madang Lu near Xujiahui Lu (马当路588号进徐家汇路), according to the ExpoChina twitter. They've built a new Lost & Found Center there that's easily accessible by taking the No.9 Line to the Madang Road stop. It'll be open daily from 9am to 6pm until the end of the year. Over the last six months, visitors have lost nearly 8000 objects on Expo grounds, which actually doesn't sound like that much for crowds of 73 million. So, if you lost something and are pretty sure it wasn't pickpocketed off you, why not try this place?

This can mean one of two things: either a taxi hit another bicyclist ... or there's an F1 race on this weekend. While we're fairly certain a taxi hit a bicyclist somewhere in Shanghai yesterday (likely several places) there is not a website to confirm it, and there are several websites about the 2005 China Grand Prix. more ›
