It’s been one hell of a year to say the least, particularly for those of us based in China. We’ve seen ‘The Tweeter in Chief’ launch (and then halt) a trade war between the world’s two leading economic powers, Fan Bingbing disappear and then reappear (with a major fine to pay) and another record-breaking Singles’ Day haul for Alibaba. To wrap up 2018, our editorial team has put together a list of the year’s most unforgettable viral stories, recounting major occurrences that defined the worlds of sports, tech, arts, fashion and food. Here’s to another year of eclectic, weird and wonderful life in China, we wouldn’t have it any other way.
We love sharing our readers’ best snapshots of life in and around Shanghai on the That’s Shanghai Instagram page and featuring the best of the best on our 'Instagram of the Week' column.
Checking out photos from our city always reminds us how freaking cool Shanghai actually is. So here are some of our favorite photos from 2018. Cheers to all of you who tagged us this year!
