Are you ready to turn your hobbies into a business?
Stroll through the sunken gardens and past the grand fountain, you might feel as if you've stepped into Paris rather than Shanghai! Despite a century of wars and social changes, much of the park has been wonderfully preserved. Here, you can witness lively scenes of locals playing the saxophone, practicing Tai Chi, and performing with Chinese yo-yos.

Sinan Mansions
Now an upscale neighborhood with ultra-expensive hotels and fancy restaurants. Charming western-style villas scattered in lush green gardens. In the past, it was a residential neighborhood for social elites like top diplomats, lawyers, and generals.

复兴坊
Step into a quiet local alley. Locals still reside here-elderly women hang laundry in the passageways, while grandfathers ride their bikes through narrow lanes, picking up their grandchildren from school. It’s a beautiful glimpse of everyday life! You will learn about some fascinating stories of everyday life in China.

InterContinental Shanghai Ruijin
This place was the former Morris Garden, named after a super-rich family back in the day. The entire block was their private estate, with most of the area covered in greenery. You will stroll through its beautiful grounds and hear how the family climbed up the social ladder.
