Two days in Shanghai

#shanghaitrip Shanghai is one of the biggest cities in the world and the economic center of China. Walking in the bund makes me feel like back to the last century, the retro western architecture combines well with modern life, the city itself is a living history book where you can find old buildings and museums in every corner of the city. It also has lots of Chinese style buildings which are also extremely charming. Overall it’s an amazing experience to stay in this vibrant city

Chinese New Year Feelings! 🏮 Yuyuan in SH

Address - 🚅Go to Yuyuan Station on the metro, it’s a 2 minute walk from there. Ambiance/Facilities - 🏮There’s lots of street snack stalls, festive music and red lanterns. Great for CNY instagram pics. Highlights - 🎊 The lanterns are great, but beware it’s really BUSY so be careful not to get squished. Avg. Price per Person - 🧧 Free！ Rating - ⭐️⭐️⭐️ If you’re in Shanghai over Chinese New Year swing by YuYuan gardens, for some festive feelings (as they’re in shirt supply in Shanghai) but don’t spend too much time here of queue up for the bridge, it’s not worth it. Take some snaps and move on somewhere less busy. #Eatshanghai #Shanghai #tripblazers #chinesenewyear

History&Stories on Shanghai’s Yuyuan Rd

Hidden on Yuyuan Road is a pop-up venue with no staff members and nothing for sale. Looks can be deceiving. It’s not your clothing boutique, instead, it’s a small storefront filled with stories depicted through pictures and text. As time passes, old stories on display at this city museum get swapped out for new ones. Nestled at the entrance of a traditional lane residential compound, the tiny venue’s atmosphere feels a bit retro. At it’s opening, stories about what live used to be like on Yuyuan Road filled the walls and hung from the ceiling. Passersby have a chance to contribute their own stories to the current theme as well. Stationery tools, pens, and paper are at their disposal, while tables and chairs provide an open space for writing. Reading the stories and secrets of local residents give the street a new meaning and an added layer of depth. Most of the writings on display are written in Chinese, but some stories in foreign languages can be found too. Be sure to drop by if you’re in the area.

Yuyuan Road: A century-old street where history converges

Yuyuan Road, a street in the western part of the downtown area of the Magic City. This road is not wide, but it is not short either, stretching from Jing'an Temple at the easternmost end to the vicinity of Zhongshan Park at the westernmost end, starting from Changde Road in the east to Changning Road in the west, spanning the Jing'an and Changning districts. Yuyuan Road was once as famous as Xiafei Road, known as one of Shanghai's 'upper corners,' and is one of the 64 'never to be widened' streets in Shanghai. In the third year of the Xuantong Emperor of the Qing Dynasty (1911), the Ministry of Works overstepped its bounds to reclaim land and build this road, which was named after the famous garden 'Yuyuan' at that time, and 'Yuyuan Road' was completed in 1918. Since then, numerous famous figures in the modern history of Shanghai and even China have left their footprints here, with countless celebrities having lived on Yuyuan Road, which can be described as 'a century-old Yuyuan Road, half of the modern history of Shanghai'. It can be said that Yuyuan Road, rich in historical heritage, is no longer just a tree-lined avenue. Architecture and culture intersect here, and along the way, there are 'readable' highlights, worthy of people's leisurely stroll and careful appreciation.

A Citywalk, encountering the history and beauty around Yuyuan Road

Today, the sun is exceptionally bright, and I am excited to start a day of Citywalk. First, I arrived at Yuyuan Road, which exudes a unique atmosphere where historical charm and modern vitality blend. Deep in an alley, in front of a large billboard endorsed by Wang Yibo, a couple and a mother-daughter pair were taking photos with great interest. Their figures complemented the billboard, creating a vivid and lively scene, as if performing a wonderful interlude in life. At the entrance of a small shop on the street, a cute cartoon character playfully holds up mahjong tiles, seemingly enthusiastically soliciting business. Next, I went to Changning Financial Park, where after registering my information, I was allowed to enter for a visit. The park has 11 old Western-style houses, all built in the 1920s during the Republic of China, each with its own charm. In the park, a loquat tree in front of a building was particularly eye-catching. The tree was laden with ripe loquat fruits, a yellow cluster that looked like strings of golden lanterns, shining with an enticing luster, truly making one marvel at nature's generous gifts. Then I headed to Zhongshan Park, which I hadn't visited in decades. It seemed like a paradise on earth, with sunlight filtering through the gaps in the branches and leaves, casting mottled shadows. Walking on the path, a gentle breeze blew, carrying the fragrance of flowers and trees, and that tranquility and beauty made me feel exceptionally comfortable. Finally, I entered East China University of Political Science and Law (Changning Campus). The predecessor of this university was St. John's College, established in 1894. The campus is filled with various Chinese and Western-style buildings, all steeped in a rich historical and cultural atmosphere. Just entering the campus, on the lush lawn, a female student was intently taking photos for a couple. The boy held a doctoral cap gently above his girlfriend's head, while the girlfriend posed playfully, their youthful spirit and romantic atmosphere perfectly intertwined, like a heartwarming symphony. When I saw the statue of Zou Taofen in the Taofen Building, a sense of solemnity and reverence suddenly arose, and the profound sense of history deeply settled here.

To experience the magic of Christmas in Shanghai, one must visit Yuyuan Road

🌟 Highlights: While scrolling through my phone gallery today, I stumbled upon photos taken last Christmas 🎄 on Yuyuan Road. Even though it's spring now, just looking at those photos through the screen brings back the lively Christmas atmosphere 🎄. 🚉 Travel Tips: Yuyuan Road, being part of Shanghai's historic and traditional scenic area, is located in the city center. The road is not very wide, and parking 🅿️ is quite inconvenient, so it's better to opt for green travel. 🚊 Take the subway lines 2/7 to Jiangsu Road Station, and it's just a short walk from there. ❤ Recommended Because: The street is packed with people, mostly young folks. It's evident that everyone is there to join in the Christmas fun and soak in the festive atmosphere. The most eye-catching sight is the Santa Clauses 🧑‍🎄🧑‍🎄 perched on the houses lining both sides of the road, each with a unique pose. Many passersby stop to take photos and check in. ❤ Recommended Because: Some businesses really know how to attract attention, like designing pink bows that girls love, and even collaborating with BOSE for a promotion. Stacking pink gift boxes and adding a pink Christmas tree instantly creates a new photo spot. Even the seemingly unrelated Chengdu skewer restaurant has joined the Santa Claus fray, with its endearing appearance drawing a steady stream of tourists. Although the road is not long, it takes several hours to walk from one end to the other, especially since it's so crowded haha～
