Home » China » Shanghai - Seven Day Itinerary » Day Four

Spend day four in the lovely, tree-lined Luwan District, home of the old French Concession. It is one of the best-preserved areas from Shanghai’s colonial days. It is four-square-miles in size and lined with beautiful colonial homes, lovely parks, hotels, and mansions. It is one of Shanghai’s most picturesque spots and absolutely meant for strolling. Take your time and enjoy stopping in at the several interesting sites along the way.

Sites in the area include the hip and trendy Xin Tiandi (a great spot for lunch or dinner), Fuxing Park, and the former residences of Sun Yat-sen and Zhou Enlai. The Jin Jiang Hotel is a complex of buildings most famous for being where Richard Nixon signed the Shanghai Communique in 1972, opening China to the West for the first time since World War II.
