Shangsheng New Place

Strolling around Shangsheng New Place, which used to be a navy club. Now after transformation, the charm of the century-old buildings here still remains, and the entire park is full of vitality, openness, and inclusiveness. Not only that, I can even feel a kind of "immersion" from every detail of the park, where buildings, merchants, activities, and crowds are deeply linked to create a richer experience. The former Columbia building is now the famous Niaowu Academy, where old buildings burst with new vitality, fresh in summer, cool and comfortable! Just like those single immersive spaces, the premise of Shangsheng New Place to achieve "immersion" is that it comes with a "script": the Columbia living circle a century ago. The legendary historical stories hidden in the century-old buildings, the elegant and unique business combinations... These natural and unique features have all laid the groundwork for Shangsheng New Place to transform into an urban cultural block with a sense of immersion. Shangsheng New Place was located in the Columbia living circle a century ago, and the stories about here may not be finished in one article. It is a microcosm of the history of the west of Shanghai a century ago, and was the residence of famous figures such as Sun Ke, the son of Mr. Sun Yat-sen, architect Wudak and his family, and British writer Ballard in Shanghai. It was also a leisure and entertainment place for American expatriates in Shanghai, where people swam and played ball; in addition, the beautiful rural scenery around it made it an ideal residence for expatriates at that time. The existing 3 nearly century-old buildings in Shangsheng New Place - Sun Ke Villa, Columbia Country Club, Navy Club and its affiliated swimming pool were also built during this period.
