Hidden Hongkou: Shanghai's Forgotten Historic District 4K HDR Walking Tour

Join us on a cozy winter walk through Shanghai’s Hongkou Old Town—once the city’s 3rd busiest commercial street, now a quiet gem steeped in nostalgia. Wander past weathered old villas, time-honored local shops, and vintage apartment buildings that still hum with stories of its bustling golden age. No flashy skyscrapers here—just the gentle charm of faded grandeur, where every alley and facade holds traces of Shanghai’s bygone era. Let’s slow down, breathe in the crisp winter air, and uncover the hidden history of this forgotten district that’s still brimming with old-world magic.
