CNNGo launches as new monthly show with its first edition from Shanghai

CNN Press Release - CNNGo is a new monthly show featuring a unique take on global destinations, bringing views from genuine insiders on what gives dynamic cities in Asia and beyond their distinctive buzz. Taking its lead from the digital CNNGo.com, whether you’re a local, a business or leisure visitor, or even just a cultural voyeur, CNNGo delivers the best of each city by those who know it best.

In the first show from Shanghai, that means hearing from some of the city's most influential and knowledgeable local characters. Beyond the usual tourist hang-outs, wise-cracking Comedian Zhou Libo gives us a tour of one of Shanghai's coolest old teahouses that once served as his training ground. Up and coming photographer, Tang Ting, takes us to a former slaughterhouse turned art space while China's most widely-read blogger, Han Han, shares his thoughts on the city he calls home.

CNNGo also delves into the city's small but vibrant music scene and Shen Hongfei, the man with the power to make or break Shanghai's new restaurants, takes us out for dinner. One of the world's fastest-changing cities has never looked, or sounded, more intriguing. You can guarantee that as CNNGo heads across the region and around the world, you’ll learn more that is new than you ever thought possible about some of the world’s best known cities.
