Yes, I agree with you. Shanghai is very far from being my favorite place on Earth, but for other reasons I am here, and from pure architectural and cultural points of view, it is way above most Chinese cities. Hong Kong, on the other side, becoming more and more China-fied. That's partly a reason why I left. My friends who stayed there all agree it's getting worse with every year. Though there is still much to see and do there, and amount of open clubs for any kind of interests from MTB to cross-stitching is staggering.
