Didn't make it to Beijing last summer for the Olympics? Well buck up, as rival city Shanghai will spend all of this summer and some of the fall trying to lure you to their World Expo, which is kind of like the Olympics without the athletes.
The 2010 Expo will not only feature a temporary city of international pavilions and amusements for the tourists, but thanks to the "Better City — Better Life" theme, Shanghai itself will benefit by gaining a rail link between its two far-flung airports, Pudong (PVG) and Hongqiao (SHA). ]]>
