Shanghai Lights Up Under A Full Moon.

One of the delights in attending the WGC – HSBC Champions event is the opportunity to head into downtown Shanghai.

On this occasion we traveled into the center of Shanghai to be present at the official opening ceremony ahead of this week’s 10th anniversary tournament.

And aside for the superb spectacle featuring five of the stars of this week’s $US 8.5m event there was this wonderful sight of a full moon moving it’s way over the city and the Huang Du River that snakes its way through the Chinese financial capital as you will see from the photographs here under.

The Huang Du River runs right through the heart of bustling Shanghai.
