With Wei's Travel ... The French Concession in Shanghai is a place that condenses a century of history in modern Shanghai. It is the largest and most prosperous concession among the four concessions in old China. It was handed back to the Republic of China government in 1943, renamed the Eighth District. The French Concession in Shanghai was opened in 1849, experienced a slight expansion in 1900, and began to expand significantly in 1914 to establish the New French Concession. The French Concession maintained a high degree of independence in old Shanghai. The entire French Concession in Shanghai was the most high-end residential area in old Shanghai, and the architectural style can be said to be uniform. The reason why the Indigo tree is called French plane tree in China is also because it was first introduced by the French and planted in the French Concession in Shanghai. Shanghai's reputation as the "Paris of the East" is also named after the French Concession. Its architectural style is independent of the public concession and the Chinese border, and is almost the same as Paris thousands of miles away. The French had always maintained great control over the French Concession. 00:00 Highlights 精彩预览 01:40 ZIKAWEI Shopping Area 徐家汇商圈 04:22 Hengshan Lane 衡山坊 09:53 Xujiahui Park 徐家汇公园 22:07 EMI Building 百代小楼 25:10 Hengshan Boulevard 衡山路 27:29 Lipo Garden 丽波花园 31:08 Gaoan Garden 高安花园 33:57 Yongping Lane 永平里 38:52 No.8 Hengshan Avenue 衡山路8号园区 48:03 Hengshan Boulevard North Part 衡山路北段 50:32 Shanghai Symphony Orchestra 上海交响乐团 53:58 Clemen Apartment 克莱门公寓 58:31 Urumqi Middle Road 乌鲁木齐中路 01:07:58 Anfu Road 安福路 01:20:44 Wiggle Wiggle Flagship Store 01:29:36 Wukang Road 武康路 01:38:28 Ferguson Lane 武康庭 01:47:41 Wukang Building 武康大楼 01:52:03 CITE BOURGOGNE 步高里 01:54:57 Ruijin Hotel 瑞金宾馆 02:06:34 Yongkang Road 永康路 02:12:45 ICCF Garden 之禾卡纷花园 02:16:28 Shanghai Conservatory of Music 上海音乐学院 02:23:05 Old Downtown Highlights 梧桐街区精华
