Wukang Road
The most famous historical and cultural street in Shanghai. This is a road that " condenses the hundred-years history of Shanghai ". It used to be the heart of the French concession, where rich and powerful people gathered during the turbulent years of war, with Spanish, British and other styles of garden houses lining up on both sides of the road. Now, while retaining the historical buildings completely, many handicraft shops, independent designer shops, clothing custom shops, and specialty cafes are opened here, forming a unique Shanghai style district that integrates fashion, delicacy and elegance.
On this road, we will not only see the street landscape of the old city of Shanghai, but also introduce some famous historical buildings, including one of the landmarks of Shanghai "Wukang Mansion".
And if you're tired from walking, there're always creative cafes where you can try a special flavor of coffee and have a nice rest.
