Attractions and things to do - Historical and Cultural Attractions of Shanghai: Shanghai Museum, Xin Tian Di, Sun Residence

On this tour to Shanghai, see its major historical and cultural attractions.

Situated in the heart of People's Square, the Shanghai Museum portrays a cross-century image, and is one of the true scenic spots in metropolitan Shanghai. It houses an impressive collection of over 120,000 artifacts.

Shanghai Xin Tian Di is a fashionable pedestrian street composed of Shikumen and modern architecture style. Its uniqueness lies in its concept of construction, retaining as it does the antique walls, tiles and exterior of the Shikumen housing of old Shanghai.

At No.7 Xiangshan Road, stands a two-storey European-style building. Though its looks nondescript, it is the focus of deep reverence and admiration from locals and visitors alike. It is the former residence of Sun Yat-sen (also named Sun Wen), the great forerunner of the Chinese democratic revolution, the founder of the Republic of China and a pillar of Chinese modern history.
