Text/He Dingyong

More than 10 years later, revisiting the beach is full of emotions.

"Three thousand years of history to see Chengdu, two thousand years of history to see Xi'an, a thousand years of history to see Beijing, a hundred years of history to see Shanghai." Shanghai is the "epitome" of China's modern and contemporary history: many major historical events and revolutionary activities have occurred here and affected the whole country; Shanghai is the "window" of new China, more than 70 years of arduous pioneering, especially the development and opening up of Pudong, Shanghai has a temperament that no city can match, that is, her "foreign atmosphere". She blends the modern with the classical in an irresistible beauty.

Walking in the overcrowded Fangbang Middle Road Old City God Temple, ancient streets and ancient alleys, full of Jiangnan bustling atmosphere, a "Qingming on the river map" scene. Stroll through the Sichuan envoy Pan Yunduan's private classic garden "Yu Garden", with jagged pavilions, mountains and stones, meandering streams, beautiful scenery, quiet and beautiful, exquisite and transparent.

Passing through the colorful Yellow River Road residential houses, I was surprised that the sidewalks were covered with clothes, and the community was concerned about people's livelihood, specially built with stainless steel, which showed the situation of the country's largest metropolitan residential building.

Walk into the old community of Duolun Road No. 174, built in 1925 Yong'an Lane, the narrow passage between the old buildings is only 3 meters wide, the passage is over the various cable networks, the passage is lined with bicycles, battery cars, old cars, and old cartons, between the buildings and buildings across a variety of clothessticks, community residents in the sheets, trousers, underwear, socks or to the bra under the pass, "crotch humiliation" is accustomed to, even the occasional can also be blessed with the "grace of dripping water", do not know how to taste?

What is even more surprising is the low price of living in Shanghai. Early in the morning, out of the hotel, a small food shop across the door of the Yellow River Road Street, a fritter, a bun, a cup of soy milk, 5 yuan, affordable; at noon, in a restaurant on The Yellow River Road, two meats and a vegetarian soup set, only 35 yuan; in the evening, eat at the noodle restaurant next to the International Hotel, an authentic Sichuan flavor sauce noodles, 10 yuan, the taste of Bashi. In the community life supermarket, there are many varieties of vegetables and vegetables, and most of them are two or three yuan a pound, which is extremely cheap, which shows the life happiness index of Shanghai citizens.

However, the house price is very high, look at the quotation of the housing agent, the average price is more than 120,000 yuan a square meter, a three-bedroom commercial house is tens of millions of yuan, and a small old building is hundreds of millions of yuan.

Go to No. 1843 Huaihai Middle Road and visit the former residence of Song Qingling. No. 113 Wukang Road, the old house of the great master of the literary world, the tall trees, the painted walls, the climbing plant cover, the environment is quiet and elegant, and tourists have stopped here.

In the 1930s, the literary activities of Lu Xun, Guo Yanruo, Mao Dun, Ye Shengtao and other cultural giants and Zuolian writers created the historical status of Duolun Road as an "important modern literary town"; the famous Gongzhe Cafe (site), Hongde Hall, Bai (Chongxi) Mansion, and Tang (Enbo) Mansion made Duolun Road an "open-air museum" of Haipai architecture.

The former residences of celebrities and the old villages on the sea have accumulated into a strong cultural atmosphere on Duolun Road today. Duolun Road "Cultural Celebrity Street" reproduces the cultural customs of Shanghai in the 1920s and 1930s, and has become a good place for domestic and foreign guests to nostalgic leisure, tourism and cultural consumption with many museums, exhibition halls, antique calligraphy and paintings, book houses and cultural gardens, and tea rooms and bars. Wenbo Street Market and Leisure Community outline the broad development prospects of Duolun Road.

In the early morning, take a walk by the Huangpu River and feel the great changes on the beach for more than 10 years. The towers that stand up one after another are dazzling and dazzling, feeling the artistic conception of "the boat is swimming in the middle of the river, and people are walking in the painting".

The sun shines in Shanghai's Pudong Development Zone, and the innovative landscape of dragons leaping and leaping and changing with each passing day has attracted the attention and praise of the world.
