China, Korea and a little bit (of Japan) on the side

Now that you are safely back, I can report that one time there was a stampede on the Bund....

Geez. I could see how it would get out of hand too,
I’m a big bloke. 6’1” and 95kg, but a stampede can get anyone.

Been a while since I was in Shanghai, but two Western food areas that come to mind are Lao Wei Jie (literally Foreigner Street, near Hongquiao Airport) and Wulunqi Rd in the French Quarter area.

The Bund also has some great places but expensive.

We were very fortunate to go in 2010. We thought it was crowded then as it was the World Expo we came for. But we were able to walk around the french Quarter with hardly any one else apart from those who lived there. The numbers on the Bund were probably a third of your pictures at the busiest times.

Well yes I'm a small woman so I try not to be in crowds at all!

Edit, Japan is the only place that I'm a relatively "tall" female. See, everything for a reason
