so there's a total eclipse of the sun in 2009 on july 22nd in china. it's going to go through shanghai and across the middle of the country. unfortunately july is rainy season so chances of it being visible are not that great.

any china travellers in here?

any recommendations on best visibility options in july in central china? any great spots to see it? best to stay toward the coast or head inland in terms of visibility?

here's a map
