Sinnan Road in Shanghai

Historical buildings are an invaluable heritage that can be read and savored. Sinnan Road starts from Middle Huaihai Road in the north and stretches to Taikang Road in the south, established in 1912 and originally named after the French composer Massenet. It is well-known for having been the residence of figures such as Zhou Enlai, Feng Yuxiang, Mei Lanfang, and Liu Yazi. Over a hundred years ago, it found peace under the shade of French plane trees, and today it resembles an open historical and cultural museum, brimming with vitality. History has not strayed far, and the future has already arrived; the plane tree leaves turn from yellow to green, and the red walls and ochre tiles carry the moisture of history. 'A person walking through this space under the gaze of others is enough to constitute a scene of drama.'
