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.

ifagallery was established in May 2006 in a 700sqm converted textile factory space in Moganshan Road – M50 Creative Centre – Shanghai’s contemporary art district. With a quality exhibition programme of principally Chinese contemporary art, and a supporting line-up of performances the gallery contributed to the dynamism of the area. Major exhibitions during that time include the solo shows of Park Sung-Tae (Korea) and sought-after young artist Liu Bolin (China). In September 2008, ifa relocated to new premises, a charming residence built in 1923 for an official of the British Customs House and then in 2013 on Wanhangdu Road. ifagallery exhibits contemporary art from China and Beyond. The gallery is also oriented towards the work of artists, regardless of origin, that have a specific influence or association with China. We represent both established artists such as Dai Guangyu, a leading figure of China’s avant-garde, the Gao Brothers and Wu Junyong; as well as emerging artists, including recent graduates of the fine arts schools in Beijing and Hangzhou such as Fan Jiupeng and Li Rui, or foreigners based in China, such as Zane Mellupe from Latvia or Christophe Demaitre from Belgium. ifa features work in a wide range of media formats, from painting to photography, video, installation and performance.ifa’s international team presents and supports artists that have an original language and means of expression, that shy away from clichés and conventions and that have strong concepts and artistic vision.Artists: Dai Guangyu, Christophe Demaitre, Fan Jiupeng, Gao Brothers, Li Rui, Liu Bolin, Zane Mellupe, Wu Junyong.More artists, exhibitions and art fairs listed on the gallery's website

免費參觀的博物館,其是上海郵政總局大樓的一部分,由於郵政總局仍在營業,讓我一度以為我走錯地方。走進博物館了解古代郵驛及近代郵政的發展,還有一些有趣的展品,讓我實際停留的時間比預計還久,在這度過一個有趣又充實的下午。這棟濃濃英式風格的磅礡建築也吸引不少網美來拍照,在外拍照的人也不比裡面參觀的人少~~ The museum is free for ticket and is part of Shanghai District Head Post Office which is still running. You can learn some fun facts about development of post system from here, there are also some interesting exhibits (most written in Chinese with complicated character). If you are not a museum person but love to take pictures, here is also a good place to go.
