City Walk in Shanghai: Lixi Road Creamy Alley
Time to go shopping! 🔔
I found a beautiful alley for taking photos.
The best part is that there are not many people there! ‼️

📍Changning, Lixi Road
🚝 Subway: Take Line 2/11 to Jiangsu Road Station, then walk for 12 minutes.
🔍 A small road near Yuyuan Road and Wuyi Road, only 700 meters long, but winding with many corners. Mostly residential areas and old Western-style houses, including the old house of Li Hongzhang's mother.

🏠 Old yellow walls, red tiles, the houses are very old, but full of life. The houses are mostly cream yellow, which is quite special. In the sunlight, it looks like a creamy alley in a Korean drama, full of atmosphere.
🚶 There are cafes and restaurants on the corner of the street, and the Christmas decorations are very romantic. Compared to the popular streets, it is quieter and more suitable for city walks.
