China International Bicycle Show

Photos from the 2007 China International Bicycle & Motor Show in Shanghai. It was gigantic. There were 5697 booths in 9 buildings that covered 105000 square meters of convention hall. The manufacturers were definitely not holding back.

Many of the designs were based on European and American designs. However, there were bicycles and other products that were uniquely Chinese. I was pleasantly surprised at the huge variety of electric bicycles, e-scooters, and e-motorcycles that were on display. Hopefully this is a sign of things to come.

This curious place was found in China…

Who can make up a good story about what is happening here? Any guesses as to what it really is while you’re at it?

“Its miniature scenic area, rich and comprehensive, is a most lively replica of China, reflecting long-standing history, brilliant culture, art and ancient architecture, as well as the customs and habits of 56 nationalities in China… Traveling at Splendid China for just one day, you will acquire an understanding of history of five thousand years.” (from TravelChinaGuide)

We took the trolley tour and got all this in just a half hour.
