Good eye, Moses. Why not post your reply as an answer instead of a comment so it can receive votes and possibly be selected as "best answer"? If I were a moderator, I'd promote it for you.

This is a very small error; You've just forgotten to add the opening curly bracket in front of the conditions for your statement. The simple correction should look like this:

 for (var prop in shanghai) {
  console.log(prop, ' : ', shanghai[prop])
}

Other than that, everything is great! Don't be discouraged by small errors like this, they happen to everyone! Happy coding!
