Lesser-known attractions worth visiting in Shanghai|Excellent historical buildings

|Excellent historical buildings. In recent days, there have been frequent news about crowded tourist spots and traffic jams. This year's holiday, the popularity of popular cities can be imagined. Due to the non-adjustment, I couldn't go far... Seeing that many friends are planning to travel to Shanghai, I wrote this recommendation of lesser-known attractions. Most of these attractions are on the streets of Wutong District, but if you don't pay attention, you will miss them. The number of people will be relatively small and the experience will be much better! 1. Delamond Residence Built in 1899, it was originally Delamond's private garden residence. The Baroque-style porch, pillars of green and red bricks, gable triangular gables at both ends, plus traditional eaves boards, the combination of multiple elements makes this building more charming. The entire building is well preserved and was rated as an excellent historical building in Shanghai in 1994. 2. Xujiahui Cathedral The Xujiahui Cathedral was designed by architect Tautfan. It started construction in 1896 and was completed in 1910. It was known as the "largest cathedral in the Far East" at that time. Before 1920, this church was the tallest building in Shanghai. It is still the largest cathedral in Shanghai and became an excellent historical building in Shanghai in 1989.3. Museum of Arts and Crafts Built in 1905, with a total area of 1496 square meters, it is a three-story mixed structure. It looks like an 18th-century European castle, so it was commonly known as the "Little White House on the Sea". 4. Baidai Small Building Built in 1921, it is an independent garden residence. It is the old site of Baidai Record Company. It carries the dreams and tears of countless musicians and has witnessed the rise and fall of the record industry. 5. Left League Memorial Hall Located on Duolun Road Cultural Celebrity Street in Hongkou District, it was built in the 1920s and has a pivotal weight in literary history. 6. Sun Ke Villa Originally Wudak's private house, he later received help from Sun Ke. To express his gratitude, he transferred the villa to Sun Ke, and since then Wudak and Sun Ke have become neighbors. 7. Zhang Leping's former residence Zhang Leping is a famous cartoonist in modern China, the creator of the image of Sanmao in "Sanmao's Wandering Diary", and is known as the "Father of Sanmao". 8. Ke Ling's former residence Ke Ling is a famous essayist and film playwright in China. Since 1930, he has started his "word cooking career" with the pen name "Ke Ling". 9. Xia Yan's old house, Cao Ying's study Xia Yan's old house and Cao Ying's study are both in the Hengfu Art Center on Urumqi South Road. Xia Yan lived here for a short time of 6 years, and the second floor restored the living scene at that time. 10. Xiyantang Built in 1929, it is the only Byzantine-style church in Shanghai. It was designed by Wudak. The unique round dome, colored glass windows, the flock of sheep on the lawn and the statues make it particularly quiet and mysterious.
