TAR16 - EP 11 "They Don’t Even Understand Their Own Language" (Shanghai 2)
georgiapeach:
The Golden Buddhas are here, as should be the SpeedBump:
Long Hua Temple
Longhua Temple (Chinese: 龙华寺; pinyin: Lónghúa Sì, literally "Lustre of the Dragon Temple") is a Buddhist Temple dedicated to the Maitreya Buddha located in Shanghai, China. Although most of the present-day buildings date from later reconstructions, the temple preserves the architectural design of a Song Dynasty monastery of the Buddhist Chan sect. It is the largest, most authentic and complete ancient temple complex in the city of Shanghai.
Task: Count the Golden Buddhas
SpeedBump: "Coin Toss"
But if anyone could help pinpoint any of the other locations it would be great!!
Speculated locations in post #2, but actual spots would be fabulous!! :jumpy:
slayton:
Thanks for the screencaps, georgiapeach.
From the "Language Barrier" footage, Dan & Jordan and Louie & Michael are together so there might be a bunch point somewhere.
Slowhatch:
The cowboys can be seen walking the same path/collonade that Boingo mentioned, and the Pious bros. can be seen at the western end of the pitstop complex trying to hail a cab (source).
Zack.:
Jordan/Dan checked in in daylight, and now they're leaving in daylight. Sunset in Shanghai is 4:54 PM on Dec 18. It looks like we've got an extended Pit Stop - definitely less than 24 hours as Mike/Louie are racing in daylight also, but probably in the 14-18 hour range (For reference, sunrise on the 19th was 6:48 AM).
eta: Dan gets the location of the clue for the stadium RB at 3:05 PM. Add 40 minutes (generously) for running through the stadium and going to the museum, they check in around 3:45. So I'm thinking we've got a 15-16 hour pit stop.
Boingo:
:lol: Oh wow! Google just updated the Google Earth pictures of Shanghai (Pudong and The Bund) with nice sharp pix today... too bad they picked the wrong time of day, however... the long shadows block most of the clearer pix. :groan: carry on.... :res:
