I was watching the sun rise last winter in Shanghai, China, when, suddenly, a shaft of light leapt up from the horizon. I snapped this picture of the beautiful pink sun pillar: Morning sun pillars are a common occurance, but they are not so commonly seen. You have to be watching the horizon at dawn to catch one. Ice crystals floating in cold clouds catch the rays of the rising sun and spread them into a narrow up-and-down shaft of light. They are beautiful--and worth waking up for. Can't get out of bed? Good news: You can see pillars at sunset, too.

上海 - 豫園
上海經過現代化的建設之後,留下的古老建築真的不多了。想要一睹古老中國的景點,已經是寥寥可數。所以在上海旅遊,豫園是必要拜訪的文化古蹟。
