History

Founded on the ruins of old Shanghai following the Great Digital Flood of 2088, Neo Shanghai was rebuilt using cutting-edge Fungal-Synthetic Construction techniques. The city's unique infrastructure incorporates both traditional building materials and living organisms, managed by an advanced Urban Intelligence Network.

Districts

The Ghost Quarter

Home to the prestigious Institute of Post-Mortem Computing and numerous Digital Afterlife Compounds, this district is known for its high concentration of spectral activity and consciousness preservation facilities.

Mycelium Heights

The financial district features self-growing skyscrapers powered by Voltaic Fungi and managed by AI-Fungal Hybrid Systems. The district's architecture continuously evolves based on market fluctuations and population needs.
