If you are going for business to Shanghai or visiting a friend who is busy during the day, we have a fun and worthwhile suggestion to discover another face of this megapolis. Our half-day trip starts in the Former French Concession, under tree-shaded boulevards and tiny hidden streets, among all the art-deco buildings and historical villas.
The Shanghai French Concession was a foreign concession in Shanghai, China from 1849 until 1943, which progressively expanded in the late 19th and early 20th centuries. The concession came to an end in 1943 when the Vichy French government signed it over to the pro-Japanese puppet government in Nanking.
