From Hong Kong, G visited Dongguan (northwest of Hong Kong) and stayed at the brilliant (and empty) Dongguan Hyatt. He said most of the hotels he stayed at in China were big, beautiful, full of staff but empty of tourists. Also in Dongguan he visited this indoor amusement park that was also devoid of people. Very strange eh?! Dongguan is home to the world’s largest shopping centre so it goes without saying what G did here! It is also the center of the world’s furniture industry.
1) Amusement park; 2) room at Hyatt; 3) private dinning room at Hyatt … (seats 20!)
4) more room, complete with a private 5) hot tub on the balcony
After a flight to Shanghai, he next found himself in Hangzhou, southwest of Shanghai.
6) West lake; 7) little building on West Lake; 8) lotus on the lake
9) wanna order? … you have to walk to this kitchen and point; 10) dinner comes in on trucks; 11) corn pancake
12) Communist Tea Factory in Hangzhou (great tea; scary employees)

Wow that’s a really extravagant hotel room! And an indoor rollercoaster? At least, it won’t get shut down due to rain or snow? Still … I would think an indoor rollercoaster creates hella noise …
