It’s difficult to pin point a highlight of my two week holiday in China but the star of the trip has to be the Propaganda Poster Museum in Shanghai.
It’s a brilliant historical archive of twentieth century China told through poster art. Simple, powerful messages and graphics that rallied a nation through a period of massive change. Do drop in if you happen to be in Shanghai. It’s location in the basement of a residential apartment block adds to the adventure. And take some cash in case you feel the urge to take a piece of history home with you. Amazing stuff.
