Who can talk about the differences between Shanghai and Guangzhou in work, life and humanities?

Shanghai and Guangzhou are both cities that opened earlier. In the last century, imperialism opened the south and east gates of China, leaving a distinct western cultural footprint in Shanghai and Guangzhou. In modern China, these two cities are famous for their fashion, prosperity and development, and they are the Shanghai-style cities with the deepest and widest contact with the world at present. At this point, Beijing, Tianjin and other backward cities need not be compared.

1, history

Shanghai is a small fishing village with a history of 100 years. It has developed into an international metropolis, and the development speed has made people abandon their houses. As a young city, it has left a lot of colonial buildings and western culture, which is the pride of Shanghainese. Everyone will talk about Shanghai, as if hoping to return to the big country quarrel in the 1930s. Perhaps Shanghainese have always been proud to be citizens under colonial rule.

Guangzhou has a history of more than 2,000 years, and has left a large number of cultural heritages in its long and vast history, such as Cantonese opera, tea culture and food culture. There are many historical sites in Guangzhou, which were occupied by western colonists. This is the result of the incompetence of the Qing government and the inevitable result of the low national status of the Beijing government at that time.

Step 2 transport

The early development of Shanghai subway is indeed an objective condition. I remember I took the subway in 2003. It was crowded. People never seem to line up to get on and off, especially Shanghainese. There is no elevator at the subway entrance and exit, which is inconvenient for some disabled people, indicating that the city has been conquered and the designers lack consideration and humanistic thinking. In addition, the sanitary conditions of Shanghai subway station are poor and the carriages are dirty.

Guangzhou subway is the best subway in China at present. The high-speed, clean and comfortable environment makes me feel very comfortable every time I am in Guangzhou, and it is not as crowded as Shanghai. The reason is that there are more private cars in Guangzhou than in Shanghai, so it is relatively easy to take the subway in Guangzhou.

Step 3 prescribe diet

Shanghainese have always regarded Shanghai food as their main course. Braised pork and lion head should be the pride of Shanghai people. In fact, as long as you have been to Guangzhou, Chengdu, Hong Kong and other cities, you will understand the backwardness of Shanghai cuisine.

Step 4 travel

Shanghai's Bund, Nanjing Road and Lujiazui have always been the pride of Shanghai people. The combination of Chinese and western, classical and modern seems to be a good result. But Shanghai does have some congenital deficiencies: there are no mountains and water in Shanghai, and the whole city is just a flat land. So Shanghai lacks natural scenery. Every time you ask people about interesting places in Shanghai, they all say that there are only a few places worth seeing in Shanghai.

Guangzhou has not only foreign buildings comparable to Shanghai, but also the night view of the Pearl River and mountains and rivers. This is the difference between Guangzhou, a southern city, and Shanghai, a "northern city". There are many tourist attractions in Guangzhou, such as Shimen, Liuxihe Forest Park and Baiyun Mountain. This is a beautiful scenery.
