The 7 Best Historic Sites in Jing'an, Shanghai Region

October 28, 2021 Jeremy Dunfee

The largest city in China is also its most cosmopolitan, offering visitors a chance to experience the past, present, and future all at once. The Huangpu River splits Shanghai into two districts: Pudong and Puxi. The Pudong skyline looks like it was ripped from the Jetsons, with the bulbous Oriental Pearl TV and Radio Tower looking a bit like a two headed lollipop. On the Puxi side, you can walk the Bund riverside district to get a taste of old Shanghai.

I visited this site in 1993 then again in October 2019. As evidenced in many places on this recent trip, China has done a great job in bringing its premier attractions up to world class. This was an interesting and informative site with English text for most of the information. My imperfect recollections of 1993 was that it was essentially an empty space with a plaque.

Visited here on a v busy Saturday where the temple was full of people filling red sacks with folded gold paper and then burning this for their ancestors. A real feast for all your senses, sounds, sights, burning incense and lovely people who explained what was happening
