Shanghai Wukang Mansion – The Legendary Curved Building

Shanghai📍 Wukang Mansion – The Legendary Curved Building

Start your day with Shanghai’s iconic classic building, "Wukang Mansion."
An old colonial-era curved building perfectly situated at an intersection, like a scene from a foreign movie.
For photography lovers, this spot is a must-visit!

🧭 How to get there:
Take Metro Line 10, get off at Shanghai Library Station, exit 1, then walk for 5 minutes.

📸 Points of interest:

In this area, freelance photographers line the sidewalks, some holding tablets to show their work.
If you like someone’s style, you can negotiate the price (which depends on the number of photos and editing).
But personally, we prefer a chill vibe, just using a phone to take pictures with friends, and the photos come out just as beautiful.

💡 Things to know:

Do not enter the building because people actually live there.

In the evening, the light is soft, and backlighting shots are amazing.

There are cafes nearby with views of the building, so you can stop by to rest.

🌸 Anfu Road – This street has an amazing vibe

From Wukang, walk a bit further to "Anfu Rd.," a creative street with hip cafes and cool clothing stores. When we visited, it felt like a flea market selling vintage items.
There are also cute photo spots that look great even when taken casually.

✨ Don’t miss:

Stylish shop signs

Artistic painted walls

Bookstores and decor shops where just standing in front of the store is photo-worthy.
