MapleStory/Towns/China

China is the name of the region, naturally, based on Chinese culture. It consists of three towns: Yu Garden of the Shanghai area, Mount Song Hamlet of the Mount Song area, and Mahavira Hall of the Shaolin Temple area. The phrase "Dong Fang Shen Zhou" (东方神州), translates in English to "The Eastern Divine Land", or "The Oriental Divine Land".

Shanghai is the main area of China. It is a modern, urban town set during night time because of the Jiangshi that have inhabited the area. By completing quests, you gain access to quests from the other citizens of Shanghai, including daily quests that reward Yu Garden Coins. These coins can be used to purchase various items from the citizens of Shanghai, including scrolls and equipment from a special Black Market shop that appears during certain times of day. You can also spend your coins at Hugh Head's shop, where you can change the appearance of a hat or overall with Diabolic Jiangshi's hat or clothing fragments. You can also have your fortune told for 1 coin at Suan Ming, giving you a random buff that can increase your EXP, meso drop rate, Weapon/Magic Attack, or Speed/Jump. The NPCs in Shanghai sell the typical things, such as armor, potions, and weapons for levels 60 to 70. There are also NPCs that can change your face and hairstyle.
 * Level Range: 140-150.

There are 3 areas outside of Shanghai's Yu Garden: Nanjing Road, which consists of ghost monsters and Shopper Jiangshi, The Bund, which is where the stronger Jiangshi and the boss Diabolic Jiangshi reside, and the Residential Area, consisting of farm-themed maps which various farm animals, as well as the boss Giant Centipede. The way to Mount Song is along this path.

This area can be accessed via the Shanghai Interdimensional Portal at Six Path Crossway on Victoria Island, which will leave you at the Residential Area (farms) of Shanghai.
