Our Neighborhood

The apartment is located at the French Concession (Chinese: 上海法租界; pinyin: Shànghǎi Fǎ Zūjiè, French: La concession française de Shanghai) was a foreign concession in Shanghai, China from 1849 until 1946, and it was progressively expanded in the late 19th and early 20th centuries. The concession came to an end in practice in 1943 when the Vichy French government signed it over to the pro-Japanese puppet government in Nanking. The area covered by the former French Concession was, for much of the 20th century, the premier residential and retail districts of Shanghai, and was also the centre of Catholicism in Shanghai. Despite rampant re-development over the last few decades, the area retains a distinct character, and is a popular tourist destination. With its peaceful, picturesque, treetlined streets, this area retain an air of the "Paris of the East". At the same time, many of the small backstreets still have a very local feel.

It’s one of the most popular parts of town for expats, especially Hengshan Lu and the Fumin/Changle crossroads.
Xintiandi and Shanghai art street Tianzifang are also in French Concession. Walking around these two place, you can get an idea of traditional Shanghai lifestyle, as well as enjoy Shanghai traditional buildings.
In French Concession, Sun Yat-sen drew up plans for a modern unified China and Mao Zedong helped to found the Chinese Communist Party. At east side of Xintiandi, Xingye Lu, you can visit the site of the First National Congress of CPC.

The French Concession is also home to the best bars and restaurants of Shanghai.
