Duolun Road

China, an East Asian country is one of the world’s oldest civilizations. It has a vast cultural history of more than five thousand years and an outstanding natural beauty. On the other hand, this country has remained a comparatively isolated and secluded one, and being a land of mystery, this country is not known to the western half of the world. However, China is rapidly developing and has grown in the phase of modernization, with an immense speed and is also welcoming the outer world to interact and do business with them.

Located in Hongkou District, Duolun Road is a peaceful taste of the past behind busy Sichuan Road. The villas which line this pedestrianized road are attractive examples of the Chinese and International architecture styles of this former American concession area. Today the road is home to a fascinating selection of art and antique shops as well as the more usual souvenirs stalls selling Chinese curios and collectibles.

Duolun Road was once a popular haunt of many eminent figures from Shanghai's past. Life size bronze figures of some of the road's former patrons are poised at intervals around the beautifully paved road and add some extra historical perspective. Duolun Road justifiably so, enjoys a very positive reputation with worldwide travelers, and is one of the most visited place.
