In my first week in Shanghai, I felt its prosperity, but at the same time it was not frivolous. No matter how artificial or extraordinary, Shanghai’s cultural heritage could hold it up.

Shanghai Xintiandi, the row of luxury cars at the front door really scared me. Behind is a bar street, with neon lights and huge crowds of people. People's mental outlook instantly enhances the appearance of Shanghai as a whole.

However, for me who was hungry and just wanted to eat small wontons and hot and sour noodles, the excitement here was a bit heavy, so I took a video and left.

Unexpectedly, with just one turn, time will turn back! I seem to have traveled back to the old Shanghai of the last century. The architectural system of Shikumen looks particularly sentimental against the backdrop of the night.

You see, this is the charm of Shanghai. It is a combination of everything, rich and not singular. It will never let you down.

Actually, I didn’t expect to live in Shanghai for such a long time this time. After I posted some videos, some friends sent private messages to provide some relatively niche places in Shanghai, and there are A place that I really want to see.

I suddenly decided to stay a little longer and not leave yet.

Shanghai is a multi-faceted city, and different streets have different temperaments. For example, this "commercial street for the working class", second only to Nanjing Road and Huaihai Road, has a very friendly atmosphere.

Sichuan North Road, this road is positioned as a unique "commercial street for the working class" in Shanghai.

Although there is almost only a bridge between Sichuan North Road and the Bund in Shanghai, the consumption level is very affordable in Greater Shanghai.

Here you can buy mineral water for two yuan a bottle, see familiar fitness trails, and Sichuan North Road Park surrounded by greenery. Go in and take a stroll, and you will feel the It is a friendly Shanghai.

Stop and go, not in a hurry, live like a local resident, even when traveling.

The park is the cutest place in the city. In a park in Shanghai, I met such a street artist and can sculptor, Mr. Li Xionggang.

I remember once seeing Mr. Zhou Huajian on TV saying that he had a street artist performance license number 001. In Shanghai, there are currently more than 100 street performers or organizations holding such certificates. They each have their own unique skills and are a beautiful sight on the streets of Shanghai.

The hand-made process of cans is tedious and delicate. Mr. Li has made all kinds of artworks, large and small. The largest one is more than ten meters long and contains more than 300 cans. It took him 4 years to make it.

He said, choose one thing and stick to it. When you stick to it halfway, others can’t stick to it anymore and give up. If you continue to stick to it, you will slowly become the best, and you will encounter More outstanding people will learn and communicate again, and finally become teachers.

When I asked about the price, he said that these are not for sale. The performance here is just for personal promotion to let passers-by from all over the world know that Shanghai has street culture, art, and no respect. Humble, no respect for national boundaries.

Shanghai shopping recommendation: Take the subway or something to Sichuan Road Bridge, stand on the bridge and look out, and you can clearly see the tall buildings on the Bund.

You can also walk around nearby. There are Shanghai uncles who gather together for fishing. You can go over and chat with them and learn a few Shanghainese words; One of the largest buildings, the Shanghai Postal Museum, as an outstanding historical building in Shanghai, has stood at this intersection for nearly a hundred years;

The road next to the museum is Sichuan North Road, and you can walk straight from here , you can reach Shanghai’s famous internet celebrity road, Tianai Road.

And I have stood on all the bridges with a radius of two kilometers. Only this bridge and this location have the best viewing angle.

Every city has a street like this. There is Wangfujing in Beijing, Chunxi Road in Chengdu, Xinjiekou in Nanjing, Jianghan Road in Wuhan, Jiefangbei in Chongqing, and Tianjin. There is Heping Road, Central Avenue in Harbin, Old East Gate in Shenzhen, Guanqian Street in Suzhou, Beijing Road in Guangzhou, and here, Nanjing Road in Shanghai.

There is never a shortage of tourists here, because this is the closest road to the Bund, and the neon lights here are very beautiful.

If you travel to Shanghai, it is still necessary to visit Nanjing Road.

Shanghai landmark building, Peace Hotel.

It is China's first world-famous hotel. When it opened in 1929, it had an air conditioning system installed and had an in-room telephone. You know, at that time many hotels in many countries in Europe did not have such conditions.

Shanghai is known as an international metropolis, and it is not for nothing.

Today’s Peace Hotel has lost its glitz and become more charming. Standing opposite, you can still feel its powerful aura.

History is full of vicissitudes, and things in the world are unpredictable. With nearly a hundred years of protection of the Huangpu River and its irreplaceable legendary light, the story of the Peace Hotel is also the story of Shanghai Beach.

One night at around 11 o'clock, I walked on a very, very quiet road. This should belong to Jing'an District, Shanghai.

Many places in Jing'an District are currently building roads, and many houses are being demolished and rebuilt. I just took a look at the demolished brick walls, and they are all old bricks with a sense of age.

You can see that the wall behind the street sign has begun to be renovated. This entire street may be renovated. This street really looks like the door of my grandma’s house when I was a child. There are dogs barking faintly in the distance. The sound came over.
