Why does Shanghai have to imitate London???

I remember I loved those plastic yellow phone boots, but then a year later when i returned to Shanghai they changed those to typical British red phone booths. Also, now they have a red double-decker sightseeing bus. Also, isn't Shanghai building this HUGE ferris wheel on the Bund that is going to be even bigger than London Eye? Next thing, they can build a Shanghai Tower Bridge and put the world's next biggest diamond in it.

Well, I'm still happy to hear that Shanghai now offers free sightseeing buses with english tourist guiders that drives around Lujiazui in Pudong.

"The open-deck red bus attracted more than 300 passengers on its first day of operation on Monday.And traffic authorities say the service is so popular that they plan to add four more buses to the service before the National Day holiday in October.The clearly-marked sightseeing bus has nine stops at venues such as Shanghai Super Brand Mall, Jin Mao Tower and HSBC Mansion, and takes about 30 minutes to complete its journey."
"Visitors can recognize the bus by its sign along the coach saying Lu Jiazui Sightseeing Bus.The route covers almost 40 kilometers around the financial district, which is popular with shoppers and tourists."
