Why is Shanghai known as the City Walk city?

When the current generation needs a slow journey to relieve mental exhaustion and rediscover the beauty 'nearby', citywalk becomes popular. Shanghai, with its large and small, uniquely characteristic streets spread out like capillaries, is the deserved City Walk city. While people in other cities are still considering how to follow the trend, the young locals in Shanghai will pretend to casually say: citywalk is nothing more than 'strolling on the streets', which is a daily routine for us. It's not hard to understand why people living in Shanghai love citywalk so much. Compared to other major cities in the country, Shanghai has more and denser streets, naturally making it a pedestrian-friendly city plan. To preserve the city's historical appearance, there are also 64 'never to be widened' streets that have not been swallowed by the wave of urbanization. At the same time, the capillary-like streets also provide convenient conditions for the growth of commerce. Shanghai is the city with the most developed block economy in the country, with more than 6,000 convenience stores and over 8,000 coffee shops, ranking first in the country, truly making it the 'Capital of Convenience Stores' and 'Capital of Coffee'. When you're tired from citywalk, you can just turn your head to have a cup of coffee and rest your feet, or grab something to eat. Shanghai, this bustling metropolis, is like a flourishing and diverse bloom. The bloom is made up of many small flowers, and Shanghai has countless streets. It can be said that the bloom of Shanghai is hidden in the repeated citywalks.

Original Art Deco details at the Fairmont

#urbanexplorer #tripblazers #shanghai There is no way you can miss the beautiful Art Deco architecture of the Fairmont Peace hotel when you first see it. But have you ever taken a look at the details before? Sassoon, the original owner, had his pet hounds immortalised in the decoration of the building as the unofficial mascots. Look for them on the windows and in the plaster work. If you’re lucky, you can take a peek inside what used to be the old management building and see a beautiful original stained glass window!

Old Jazz Band in Shanghai

World’s famous Old Jazz Band in Shanghai. I was so lucky to visit that place and enjoy amazing jazz! 📍Bar is located in Fairmont Peace Hotel, 1st floor, right off the Bund. ✅It’s better to book the ticket and make a table reservation beforehand, especially during National holidays. ✅ They start at 6:30 pm. Don’t be late! :) Drinks and snacks are included in the ticket. Vintage atmosphere and a good music- everything you need to finish the day perfectly. Audience from all over the world. It’s good to dress up in vintage style to support the mood 😉 In the hotel’s hall you will find lots of photo locations. Posters on the walls represent Shanghai of 1930s. Highly recommend that place.

Fairmont Peace Hotel

Awesome time hanging out and staying at the Fairmont Peace hotel in Shanghai for my birthday. I took the tour of the hotel which was offered in English and it was very interesting to learn about the long and storied history of the hotel and all the world leaders and celebrities who had stayed there in the past. I went to the Jazz bar in the evening and listened to some good music while sipping on cocktails. It kind of gave me that old-timey Shanghai feel. The architecture in the building is really awesome, it has that quality and attention to detail that modern buildings just don’t have anymore. It’s no wonder why so many US Presidents stay here when they visit Shanghai. The view from the rooftop cafe is quite amazing and not to mention the staff was always friendly and helpful. I would definitely recommend! #urbanexplorer

SHANGHAI is amazing. Im a fan of science fiction so when youre there in the night with all the lights and all this modernity, its like a set in a movie. #shanghaiexhibits #shanghaistyle #shanghaishoppingandeating #merrychristmas

Shanghai|Peace Hotel Shanghai Peace Hotel as a landmark building, the experience of staying for one night is really great. Its really invincible to take pictures inside the hotel in the afternoon. The retro stairs are super nice, I wear it very simple. Every staircase here is an excellent choice for taking pictures. The art gallery also displays movie magazines for viewing here. The retro revolving door at the entrance is also invincible. The spiral staircase is already a must for the Peace Hotel. Its hard to find, ask the service staff to find it, and the photo art is not good. At night, the terrace of Huaying Pavilion and the night view of the Bund are also a new realm.

This old road, forgotten by time, actually hides stories of stunning times

🚃 With the popular TV series 'Blossoms' airing, this Shanghai road, once forgotten by time, has come back into people's view. There's no Boss Huang, no Miss Wang, nor Zhenzhen Garden on Huanghe Road, but this newly popular Shanghai internet-famous road is indeed Huanghe Road. 🏘️ Compared to Wukang Road, it is closer to the Bund. There are many historical buildings along this road, and the well-known International Hotel is located here. Of course, the long queues of people waiting to buy the butterfly pastries also show its unique taste, attracting many tourists to purchase eagerly. 🏞️ The Taisheng Garden on Huanghe Road is the prototype of the Zhenzhen Garden in the TV series 'Blossoms'. Although it doesn't have the thrilling business battles or the passionate Miss Wang as in the TV series, it retains the authentic flavor of the old Shanghai alleys. 🌄 The spareribs rice cake mentioned in 'Blossoms' was reportedly not sold on this road before. With the TV series' explosion in popularity, many shops along the road started selling spareribs rice cakes. Personally, I find the taste average, but some might find it delicious. Beauty is in the eye of the beholder, and I'm not accustomed to it. Xinghua Lou, however, is an old Shanghai brand that I highly recommend for friends to try. ❤️‍🔥 The end of Huanghe Road is East Nanjing Road, and at the end is the Bund. The world-renowned Peace Hotel is located here, which is also the office of Boss Huang in 'Blossoms'. It takes about 15 minutes to walk from the Peace Hotel to Zhenzhen Garden on Huanghe Road. 🚗 Transportation tips: Take the subway lines 2, 8, or 1 to People's Square Station, exit 8, and walk about 100 meters to reach. 🔍 Nearby famous brands: Jinmen Hotel, International Hotel, Taisheng Garden, Xinghua Lou 📍 Detailed address: Huanghe Road, Huangpu District, Shanghai

The Shanghai Peace Hotel, with its integrated dining, living, and entertainment facilities, offers a taste of Shanghai's charm

As I stepped into the lobby of the Shanghai Peace Hotel, it felt as if I had traveled through a time tunnel, back to the bustling yet elegant old Shanghai. The vintage chandeliers hanging in the lobby cast a soft glow, illuminating the exquisite marble floor and the bronze-colored decorative railings, with every detail exuding the luxury and taste of the last century. I was greeted by a cheongsam-clad concierge lady, whose smile was warm and welcoming, making me feel at home instantly. Under her guidance, I walked down the long corridor, flanked by black and white photos that chronicled the hotel's and Shanghai's changing history, each step feeling like a slow progression through the river of time. Upon entering the room, I was greeted by an atmosphere that blended classic and modern elements. The interior decor retained the artistic style of old Shanghai, with wooden floors, high ceilings, and vintage furniture, each aspect revealing the traces of time. However, modern amenities were all in place, including a spacious bathroom, comfortable bedding, and high-speed internet connection, ensuring a comfortable stay for guests. In the afternoon, I enjoyed afternoon tea at the hotel's jazz bar. The bar played melodious jazz music, and the live band performance added a touch of dynamism and vitality. I ordered a classic Shanghai cocktail, savoring it while listening to the music, immersing myself in the unique cultural atmosphere of the city. For dinner, I chose the hotel's Chinese restaurant, where the dishes were exquisite and authentic. I tried several signature dishes, each one delicious in flavor and appearance, especially the braised pork, which was fatty but not greasy, melting in the mouth. The waitstaff moved between tables with politeness and attentiveness, making the dining experience all the more enjoyable. At night, I returned to my room and looked out the window towards the Bund, where the brilliant night scene caught my eye. The buildings along the Huangpu River appeared even more majestic and mysterious in the night, and the Peace Hotel's location is undoubtedly one of the best spots to enjoy this beautiful view. The next morning, I enjoyed a rich buffet breakfast in the hotel's breakfast room, from fresh baked goods to traditional Chinese dim sum, offering a wide variety to satisfy different tastes. When leaving, I couldn't help but look back several times at the Peace Hotel, which has witnessed Shanghai's century of vicissitudes. It is not just a hotel, but more like a living history book, telling the story of the city, making it hard to leave. The Shanghai Peace Hotel, a place full of historical charm and modern comfort, is a wonderful chapter not to be missed by any traveler to Shanghai.

Shanghai City Walk | A Complete Guide to a One-Day Flower Viewing Tour in March

Shanghai, the city that I call the 'Magic City' in my heart, has truly given me such a big surprise. Fields of cherry blossoms, magnificent magnolias, and tulips have already bloomed with abandon, showing off the colors of spring. 🌸 This is the large cherry blossom forest located in Jing'an District, Shanghai. Wow, it's so beautiful that a casual snapshot looks like it was taken by a professional photographer. 📷 If you come to Shanghai and want to experience this grand feast of flowers, remember to go to Gate 1 of Jing'an Sculpture Park, and guess what, there's no admission fee at all! 📍️ That's right, the 'bus to spring' is right here, waiting for you in a most romantic way. I encountered one right outside my hotel, so romantic!! It felt like entering the scene of those romantic movies, truly beautiful. 😍️ Oh my, I have to share my exclusive flower viewing route with everyone. After a hearty brunch in the morning, you can cycle to Jing'an Sculpture Park to take pictures of the cherry blossoms. In the afternoon, I highly recommend a city walk near the Bund, casually capturing the tulips of the Bund, and the following week will be their prime time. Itinerary: Jiujiang Road️ ➡️ The Bund Central Square️ ➡️ Peace Hotel️ ➡️ Sassoon House️ ➡️ China Postal Museum️ ➡️ Zhapu Road Bridge️ ➡️ Waibaidu Bridge️ ➡️ Jiangyuan. A few photography tips: 1. The surrounding overpasses might be congested, so if you live nearby, I recommend cycling there, so you can better enjoy the roadside scenery. 2. If you want to include the crowd in your shot, or prefer to take pictures without people, go earlier. The early-blooming pink cherry blossoms are expected to last for a week. Of course, in addition to cherry blossoms 🌸, the park also has tulips and plum blossoms. For those who like to take portraits, you can bring a small stool or stand on the steps to take pictures, the angle is fantastic 👍. And, try to use a telephoto lens for shooting, it can avoid the crowd and capture that unique Japanese style. 😊

Fire! The popularity of various cultural and tourism 'check-in spots' from 'Blossoms' has soared

Following the broadcast of the TV series 'Blossoms', directed by Wong Kar-wai and adapted from the novel of the same name by Shanghai author Jin Yucheng, the popularity of many cultural and tourism 'check-in spots' in Shanghai has skyrocketed: the search and order volume for traditional Shanghai delicacies such as pork rib rice cake, rice in soup, and fried dough twists on delivery platforms have significantly increased; locations like Huanghe Road and the Peace Hotel, featured in the drama, are now surrounded by tourists who have come to visit.

A museum that sets up a sanctuary in a snail shell

Following the traces of the 'Blossoms' images, it's quite interesting to seek warmth in the cold weather, which can somewhat dispel the chill and keep warm. I've been to Huanghe Road and Jinxian Road, and then went to check out the Peace Hotel. Unexpectedly, there's a mini museum in the Peace Hotel, nestled in a mezzanine. Through the narrow staircase, you can see a small room where, in this 'sanctuary in a snail shell', includes the development history of the Peace Hotel, classic ornaments, silverware, old menus, bills, and the most heavyweight items must be the dinnerware, invitations, table decorations, and group photos of the guests from the second CIIE. What's more interesting is that the original 'Blossoms' manuscript, as well as items related to the film and TV series, are also prominently displayed. It seems that the Peace Hotel is not just an old store that rests on its laurels, but also knows how to seize hot topics to rejuvenate the century-old establishment. They even launched a 'Blossoms' set menu which, despite being pricey, still attracts customers. There are mixed reviews online, with endless debates and no concessions. Naturally, the business continues as usual, still hanging posters to attract customers.

Setting sail at night, gazing at the brightly lit Shanghai Bund across the Huangpu River. From the Huangpu Pier, right ahead is the entrance to the Bund - the Bund Pier. Under the plane trees, ferries for crossing the river are docked. Drifting slowly with the boat, the river curves reflecting the moon, and the waves shimmer. Soon, a bizarre sea of lights comes into view. As the lights begin to shine, the elegant silhouettes of classical buildings are cast into the sparkling waves of the Huangpu River, creating an endless dreamy scroll. On both sides of the Bund stand historical buildings left from the time of the foreign concessions, each with its unique shape and characteristics. Walking south from the Bund Pier, the historic Shiliupu Pier, the famous landmark of the Bund - the Peace Hotel, and the British-style antique garden buildings of Taikoo Li compete in splendor. The middle section is the richest in architectural styles, gathering the Georgian-style corner building, the Art Deco style of the Anglican Cathedral, and skyscrapers... As the boat drifts in the heart of the river, the entire Bund seems like a huge flowing stage, with the scenery changing endlessly in the water. The neon lights on the ground display various vivid and intense colors, as if colliding to create countless sparks of diamonds.

The Bund

The Bund is located on the bank of the Huangpu River in Huangpu District, Shanghai. It starts from Yan'an East Road in the south and extends to the Waibaidu Bridge over the Suzhou River in the north. The Huangpu River is to the east, and the west is the concentration of financial and foreign trade institutions in old Shanghai. After Shanghai was opened as a port, foreign banks, businesses, general meetings, and newspapers began to gather here, and the Bund became the financial center of the country and even the Far East. There are many historical buildings on the Bund, some of which are still used by some units and institutions. For example, the Customs Building at No. 13 on the Bund, which was completed in the 16th year of the Republic of China, is still the residence of the Shanghai Customs; the Bank of Communications Building at No. 14 on the Bund, the Asia Building at No. 1 on the Bund, the Hui Zhong Hotel Building at No. 19 on the Bund, which is now the Peace Hotel; the Sassoon Building at No. 22 on the Bund, and so on.

A timeless encounter of the elite - I'm at the Peace Hotel

The Peace Hotel has always been a place I've longed to visit, and this time I took my father, who just had his birthday, to experience it on Father's Day. There are many luxury hotels along the Bund, but the only one with a strong sense of history is this old Qian Hotel, which has a history of nearly a hundred years. Because of financial constraints, I couldn't experience the classic suites where Chaplin, Lu Xun, Hua Luogeng and others stayed, but I will definitely try next time. The dinner at the Dragon and Phoenix Hall, the breakfast at the Jasmine Lounge, and the old-fashioned jazz are all great. Two drink coupons can be used to listen to music with two cocktails, relax and rest. The only regret is that the old ladies have a loud voice, the economic conditions should be very good, maybe when I get old, my voice will also be loud. The price is indeed a bit spicy, the most regrettable thing on a rainy day is to miss the rooftop terrace, can only wait for the next time with a little unfulfilled expectation.

A venerable Shanghai hotel, the filming location for Wong Kar-wai's "Flourishing".

🏨 The Peace Hotel in Shanghai ❤ Why it's recommended: With the recent airing of the series "Blossoms," director Wong Kar-wai has beautifully encapsulated the cultural allure and charm of old Shanghai. I stayed in the Fairmont room, where I was greeted with a thoughtful and adorable welcome gift of fruits and Christmas desserts. 🌟 Highlighted Features: Choosing to stay at the Peace Hotel was entirely to immerse myself in the historical ambiance of old Shanghai. Although some facilities may seem a bit dated, considering the hotel was established in 1929, the overall maintenance is commendable. You can also take a memorable photo on the staircase where the movie "Tiny Times" was filmed! 🍽 Dining Recommendations: Breakfast is served in a quaint dining room, and please note, slippers are not allowed! 👍 Highly Recommended: The most noteworthy experience is the evening performance by the elderly jazz band, allowing you to soak in the glitz and glamour of Shanghai nightlife. The hotel attracts a considerable number of foreigners, possibly drawn by the historical allure of the Peace Hotel. The performance ends at midnight, and we arrived just an hour before, to find it fully booked. However, the atmosphere was truly intoxicating, especially when paired with a glass of red wine, making you feel as if you were part of the scene! If you wish to experience the charm of old Shanghai... you must stay at the Peace Hotel at least once.
