Thanks Julie.
It was our first tourist spot and it was very busy.
I think I did well to get some pics without ppl.

The gardens were lovely. Very well kept.

The Yuen garden is indeed one of the most popular place in Shanghai. Perhaps because it is so close to the shops and markets. My fav is the last pics framed dream tree. Great composition. Yes indeed so hard to do a pics with out any people. So many people everywhere... Did you line up to buy the famous dumplings/buns at the market near star bucks coffee shop? I wonder if is still there!

It was a lovely garden. I could see where the inspiration for Sydney's Chinese Gardens came from.
Starbucks is still there, not sure about the dumpling place. There were many food stands there, selling "interesting" looking food. I tried not to stand still too long, otherwise I got accosted by street sellers. "watch, rolex, iphone4, ipad, ...."

Another fantastic set Scott

Thanks R&C.
