Share some places that are already very popular Take a city walk from afternoon to evening Shanghai Postal Museum - Zhapu Road Bridge - North Bund Riverside - Fair Road Ferry - Taitong Ferry - Pudong Art Museum - Tianshui Love - Dongchang Road Ferry - The Bund The whole journey is about 6km I used to like cycling along this route. I tried to measure it with my feet and found it was not bad~ Can't rush to the mountains and fields, the feeling of long-distance walking in the city is also good

The Postal Museum is located on Sichuan Road Suzhou River Bridge in Shanghai, a building with European charm. I took the subway line 12, and quickly arrived at this famous attraction after getting off at Tiantong Road subway station. As soon as I entered the Postal Museum, I was immediately attracted by its towering architecture and exquisite decoration. The hall is brightly lit and luxuriously decorated, as if walking into a time tunnel. The walls are full of old stamps and photos, making people feel the history of postal development. On the second floor of the museum, there is a particularly attractive exhibition hall. The hall displays various old-fashioned telephones, fax machines, typewriters and other equipment, as if returning to the past. I also saw some precious communication tool models and historical relics, and learned more about the evolution of communication technology under the explanation of the commentator. In addition to this, there are some small shops and cafes around the post and telecommunications building. I sat down in one of the cafes to rest for a while and tasted their special coffee. Sitting by the window, I can see the ships shuttling back and forth on the Suzhou River, the scenery is very charming. In general, the Post and Telecommunications Building is a must-see attraction in Shanghai. It is located behind the Bund, although there are a bit many people, but you can feel the unique charm of Shanghai. Whether it's appreciating architectural styles or understanding the history of communication, you can find fun here. If you come to Shanghai, be sure to go to the Post and Telecommunications Building after touring the Bund.
