10 Things to do in Hongkou That You Shouldn't Miss
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.

This was an amazing experience and brings great respect to the Chinese in helping save the lives of 40,000+ lives during world war 2 when many countries, including the US turned Jews facing persecution and death camps away. The Japanese invaded Shanghai and then interned the Jews in Ghettos..Restricted areas while occupying Shanghai.

Good views... one of my favorite skyline.. you don’t need to having a reservation for appetizers..if you’re lucky you have the good site, near the window. I’ve paid about 210 yuan with my partner so 15 € per person.. and we also have included on the price a glass of wine or soft drinks.. you need to visit..

The famouos Chinese writer Lu Xun, is buried in Hongkou Park.
Reviewed By NigelG407 - Singapore, Singapore
Lu Xun Park has been developed since I was last there. It is very beautifully laid out and is very popular with local people especially the elderly. It houses both the museum and the grave of the hero of Chinese literature. He inspired me to read his works years ago - if you chose to do so, there are lots of online commentaries available to enhance understanding. As for the gardens - so nice a place to stroll. There is the museum also. A great tribute.

Originally this structure, across the street from the old power plant (both are architectural gems) this was the slaughterhouse through which all the meat that fed a growing Shanghai came to pass. Now it is a subdivided structure housing everything from restaurants and offices to the Ferrari Owners Club, as well as a Theatre where stage productions are staged on the top floor. Worth a visit.
