Shanghai, located on the banks of the Yangtze River Delta on the Eastern side, is the largest city of the People's Republic of China and the eighth largest in the world.
There is a tale which goes with this city; Shanghai was such an attractive place for sailors that ship's captains often had difficulty getting everyone back when it was time to leave port. So they would go down to the bar district, drug likely candidates and haul them back to the ship. When the sailors awoke, they found themselves on the high seas. The verb "to be shanghai-ed" grew out of this practice, meaning to be carried away against one's will.
