Shanghai is home to numerous breathtaking architectural treasures. In the bustling urban area, various Western-style houses from the Republican era are still preserved. Strolling through the streets and alleys of Shanghai is like traveling through a time tunnel and arriving in that era when prosperity and turmoil coexisted. The Bund is an area where Republican-era buildings are concentrated and has the reputation of a ‘World Expo of Architectural Complexes’.
With its profound historical background and cultural connotations, it has become a rare cultural heritage in Shanghai. At the junction of Xuhui District and Luwan District, there are more traces of old Western-style houses. These old Western-style houses have absorbed the characteristics and artistic techniques of residences, villas, and official residences from various European and American countries. They blend multiple types of traditional and Western modern techniques, and have distinct characteristics of the times and regions. Places such as Sinan Mansions and Wukang Building are very popular check-in spots in Shanghai. The White Mansion, Liulin Bieye, and other small Western-style buildings with different styles carry the legendary stories of Shanghai. Glimpses of light and shadows, overlapping of time and space, are like urban secrets.Visiting Republican-era Architecture in Shanghai
