Shanghai Xiyun Tower has now become a famous landmark building in Shanghai, with a modern flavor of Chinese civilization, giving people a kind of quaint and lofty feelings and feelings. Here, I will share with you the detailed strategy of Shanghai Xiyun Tower.
Xiyunlou, the first Shanghai-style cultural, leisure and commercial water street with a length of over 1,111 meters, which was opened for trial operation in the first quarter of this year, is finally open for free!
Xiyunlou is relatively new to Shanghainese, and some people have only heard of it. Xiyunlou starts from Hongde intersection of Aksu Road in the west, crosses Yumin South Road to Planning Road in the east, turns south along Yumin South Road and extends to Qingxitan.
She was built by the river, with a total length of over 1,111 meters! It takes only ten minutes to walk down from beginning to end, but it may take less than half a day to watch everything carefully!
Xiyunlou is not only a modern commercial street, but also a cultural water street integrating leisure, sightseeing, entertainment and retro! This is unique in Shanghai!
since last year, there has been a steady stream of good news about opening the doors for trial operation here. This summer has just arrived, and Xiyun Building has arrived as scheduled. While not too many people here know, the headline fungus is rushing to be fresh, so let's find out for everyone in advance and see what's fascinating about this new cloud building!
the meandering river of 1,111 meters
The elegant name of Xiyunlou comes from this meandering "West Canal", which runs through the whole block and becomes the inland river and central axis of the block.
On the one hand, it tells the history and culture of Shanghai's alley buildings, and on the other hand, it is a bustling commercial district. This small river separates two centuries of dialogue.
West Yun He, with a length of 1,511m, is artificially excavated and meanders through the whole block. With the help of lift pump technology, the river is kept at a depth of 3.5m all the year round, and dreamy water mist is sprayed at noon, which is like a fairyland!
What is most worth looking forward to is that after the official opening, there will be boats shuttling on the river, so tourists can enjoy the scenery on both sides of the strait by boat, which will make shopping and leisure have a different taste.
26 Shanghai-style buildings
The whole block of Xiyunlou is divided into three areas: A, B and C, with a building area of over 91,111 square meters. It is composed of 26 single-family buildings full of old Shanghai customs. When you step into it, you will find a strong Shanghai-style atmosphere!
Small bridges, flowing water and Shikumen make this literary block look very quiet, reappearing the style of "Shili Yangchang" in the 1921s and 1931s.
Standing on one side of Xiyun Building and looking across the West Canal, a row of Shikumen with black tiles and white walls is in sharp contrast with the modern residential buildings in the distance!
It is foreseeable that this place will be the best place for the surrounding residents to relax in the future.
The famous Du Mansion
The opening of Xiyun Building is the famous Du Mansion that the headline fungus is most looking forward to. Even the house number of "No.1, Lane 188, Ninghai West Road" was completely preserved.
Du Mansion is the shadow of the combination of Chinese and Western culture. For example, the Chinese-style beam structure is matched with the western-style doorpost pattern; Chinese-style furniture is combined with western-style glazed tiles, which are savored carefully and have a unique style.
Xiyunlou also invited the team that designed the lighting for the Bund to design the lighting image effect in an integrated way.
Every piece of furniture, every decoration, every photo and every piece of wood here is a story-the beam on the roof was given by Huang Jinrong, a tycoon in Shanghai. The handrail of the stairs is mottled, because Du Yuesheng will stand here and lean against the handrail to observe the visitors on the first floor. Once he finds that this guest is not simple, he will be invited to the second floor to discuss it in detail; Old photos are full of famous people on the beach; There are all kinds of western things
The architectural systems of French Concession and British Concession in 1931s and 1941s are all reflected here.
Unfortunately, because the block has not been fully opened, the door of Du Mansion is still closed. It is a pity that Toutiao Mushroom has not personally witnessed the interior of Du Mansion, which just leaves a suspense for you to explore it yourself ~
In addition to Du Mansion, Xiyun Building also brings together 6,511 square meters of old houses such as Zhang Mansion, Fish Shop, Rice Shop and Silk Weaving Club, where the Shanghai style culture of old houses will be displayed.
Mottled and obsolete epigraph
This epigraph is located in a small black pavilion. It was written by Wang Mingsheng, a writer of the Qing Dynasty in the twenty-four years of Qianlong. You can still see Wang Mingsheng's wonderful calligraphy from the unclear font!
Small and exquisite flyovers
On the other side of Xiyun Tower, there are several small flyovers like this. The black tile and white walls are very plain, the gray-black wooden doors creak, and the little lion with the title ring is very dignified, which constitutes a delicate Shikumen landscape!
cross this Shikumen and cross the street, there is a hole in a small space! If you continue to go inside, you will find a different scenery. The gray wall is finely carved with figures and landscape patterns. From a distance, it is a wrong sculpture!
I envy the residents nearby, and I can walk in the streets with such a strong Shanghai culture atmosphere every day.
Square sculptures of various shapes
Walking in Xiyunlou, there are not only Shikumen buildings with unique Shanghai style on both sides of the strait, but also modern scenes that keep pace with the times-Xiangyun Square, Performing Arts Stage Square, Water Square, Rhino Square and Bar Square have different views respectively.
Xiangyun wall of white marble: It is particularly worth mentioning that Xiangyun Square has a Xiangyun wall of white marble with a length of 1.2m and a height of 1.8m.. It is said that this auspicious cloud wall has a history of 511 years, and the pattern is composed of Ssangyong playing beads, auspicious clouds, etc. It first stood in front of Jing 'an Temple, and was stolen overseas, and then returned to Shanghai after many twists and turns.
Rhinoceros sculpture: These rhinos located in Rhinoceros Square are also famous. They were created by French artist Daniel Davio. As one of the greatest glazing craftsmen in the contemporary era, his works are collected by museums all over the world.
The cute rhinoceros sticks its head out of the water and stands up completely. No matter which one is very realistic, it is also very cute. It is a must-see for friends coming to Xiyunlou!
Canadian Elk: Strong muscles and perfect lines show the stag's power to the fullest, and the slightly raised left front foot makes this Elk sculpture come alive.
Blue giraffe: It's the first time to see a blue giraffe. Although this giraffe has no orange pattern, blue is integrated with other sculptures around it. It turns out that sculpture can also give people unlimited imagination!
Vivid figure sculptures: Apart from animal statues, the figure sculptures in the square are even more vivid. Naughty boys, serious apprentices and hardworking rickshaw masters are all conspicuous signs in Xiyunlou Square!
Three-Eye Ancient Well
Three-Eye Ancient Well appeared in the Three-Eye Well of Comrade for five years, with a history of 811 years. Well culture is a unique culture in China and a symbol of hometown.
In ancient times, there was an allusion of "leaving one's hometown" and "drinking water without forgetting to dig a well". Well water is more sweet and moist, which is beneficial to people and has a long history, and the business is prosperous. There are three eyes in the ancient well, but it's the first time I've seen the head fungus!
Five exquisite ancient stone bridges
There are five stone bridges in West Yun He, namely Xiyun Bridge, Shanren Bridge, Gongguan Bridge, Qinshui Bridge and Rainbow Bridge, each with its own characteristics. More than 1111 meters of old stone revetment, each stone is not less than 31 cm thick and weighs more than 111 kilograms, all of which are carefully selected from tens of thousands of stones with a history of more than 111 years.
Five stone bridges also connect the banks of the West Canal, which is modern and retro. Crossing the bridge deck is like crossing two centuries.
However, visiting Xiyunlou is not entirely for appreciating the elegant style of Shanghai-style alley architecture. When you come here, Toutiao mushroom hopes to have the same experience as going to a big shopping mall, and it is best to have all kinds of food, entertainment, education, shopping and leisure!
The business madness of Xiyunlou strikes
According to reports, Xiyunlou focuses on six aspects of investment promotion: special catering, health and leisure, parenting education and entertainment, culture and art, community support and exhibition office, and adopts the mode of all developers holding and joint investment promotion to ensure the quality of settled merchants.
In the future, there will be a variety of theme formats such as Linhe Bar Street, Floriculture Handmade Street, Cultural Market, parenting education Entertainment, Special Banquet and Catering, Great Health and Fitness.
