Strolling leisurely around Jing'an Temple

On Sunday, taking advantage of the end of spring, I wandered around the vicinity of Jing'an Temple. First, I came out of Exit 12 of Jing'an Temple subway station and walked along Huashan Road to the time-honored brand pavilion at 263 Huashan Road, which used to be the office of the Bright Food Group, and even earlier, it can be traced back to the private residence of the British man Draymond in 1899. After visiting 263, I walked to the nearby Jing'an Park. In the bustling Jing'an Temple business district, this is a precious piece of greenery where one can stroll, exercise, read books..., and enjoy the tranquil natural atmosphere. Today, there are several educated youth song and dance troupes performing. Exiting the park, there is the 'Fengsheng Li·Jing'an Temple Square', Reel Department Store, and Kerry Centre not far away, and I visited Mao Zedong's former residence from 1920. Crossing the road and returning to Jiuguang Department Store next to Jing'an Temple, the lively crowd and the children's performances made it hard to leave. After having enough of the mall, I came out and arrived at the former residence of Liu Changsheng, which is now the Exhibition Hall of the History of the Underground Struggle of the Communist Party of China in Shanghai... Taking it easy, I circled around Jing'an Temple, admiring the beautiful old villas, browsing the magnificent commercial centers, enjoying performances by the elderly and children in the quiet park and the bustling mall, visiting the red historical sites..., it was truly a fulfilling and enjoyable day.
