is an international city located at Latitude 31°14'N,Longitude East 121°29',lies in the front of 'Yangtze River Delta Area',where Yangtze River flows into East China Sea.Shanghai's original Chinese name,or its shortened name now using,called 'Hu',is from a fish catching tool's name also called 'Hu',a very delicate tool using tidal power(that was how it works:when the tide rises,fish swim beyond a board made of wood; when tide ebbs,and the water level descends below the board,fish is blocked by the board and cannot swim back.Then fishermen will be able to catch those trapped fish).That's all about its origin,then I'm going to tell you about Shanghai's transportation system and its communication with other countries and cities.Shanghai's inner transportation system includes:inner,middle,outer flyover rings,subways,magnetic-suspended trains and buses.The MagLEV train needs only 7 minutes to travel through 30 kilometers and is capable to reach the top speed of 431 km/h!Talking about the international and inter-metropolitan communication,what I have to introduce are:YangShan deep water port,Shanghai Pudong International Airport and Huangpu River.Why the YangShan deep water port?Because formerly Shanghai wasn't able to accommodate those ships which have drafts of deep water,and this greatly limited the development of Shanghai(some import cargo ships cannot unload at Shanghai).Now with the YangShan deep water port,import and export ships can load and unload freely,without thinking about the depth.According to the survey held by the Industrial and Commercial Administration of China,YangShan deep water port has made a great contribution to both the GDP of Shanghai and China.And we can never emphasize air transportation too much,so there comes the Pudong International Airport.Every day the airport sends thousands of flights to elsewhere and also receives thousands of airplanes,air traffic there is pretty heavy.It's making infinite commercial chances for China,and also supports the tourism of Shanghai.Now let's move on to the river net in Shanghai.Huangpu River is a tributary of Yangtze River which flows all the way through Shanghai,and gives Shanghainese a great way of going out by ship:Huangpu River leads to Yangtze River and makes aqua-transportation easier.That's all about Shanghai,if you want to know more,come and visit Shanghai!
