Songjiang quest: Stroll in Rongmei Rd

Songjiang is recently investing a huge amount of money on their city embellishment, as they are competing for the title of “One of the most beautiful cities in China”. This includes improvement of green areas, creation of new green areas (parks), illumination, maintenance of streets, boulevards, and waterfronts/channels. During my stroll, was quite nice to ride a bike under the trees 🌳, specially under this summer heat. The parks and green areas are certainly beautiful, but night illumination of some of them is bad planned. For example, the green area from pic 1 (Zhongshan Office’s) can’t be seeing at night. The clock tower is gorgeous at night. Zhongshan area is full of tiny shops, in a very Chinese style: Chinese fast food, clothing shops and supermarket. Feels more like old fashioned modern Chinese style (if makes sense). One of those areas frequently visited for locals, and they are not used to see any foreigner around. Perfect for those looking for a real culinary experience for Chinese food. 📍Rongmei Rd, Zhongshan area #shanghaistyle #shanghaicuisine #shanghai #oldshanghai #oldshanghaistyle #cityoverlook #songjiang #criskotsu #oldcity #citylife #roadtrip#summervacation#urbanexplorer
