Few cities in the world have been the political and cultural centre of an area for as long as Beijing. One of four ancient cities in China, Beijing is renowned for its opulent palaces, temples, and huge stone walls and gates. As it was the host of the 2008 Summer Olympics, a number of amazing architectural wonders were built to coincide with the many ancient buildings. With the arrival of the Olympics, the Chinese government forced the predominant Mandarin speaking public to learn English. Now the international language can be found at many public areas.
Regarded as the citadel of China\'s modern economy, Shanghai also serves as one of the most important cultural, commercial, financial, industrial and communications centers of China. Shanghai also has one of the world\'s busiest ports, making it the largest cargo port in the world. A wide variety of cuisines can be found in the city. Shanghai offers a plethora of culinary delights focusing on the gourmet traditions of Beijing, Yangzhou, Sichuan and Guangzhou, as well as its own local dishes.
