What is Shanghai Lane? Interpretation of Shanghai Alley

1, Shanghai Lane, a unique residential form in Shanghai, was once inseparable from the lives of thousands of Shanghai residents in Qian Qian. How many stories, how many allusions, how many celebrities and how many memories are closely linked with Shikumen and pavilions. It can be said that without alleys, there would be no Shanghai, let alone Shanghainese. Alleys constitute the most important architectural feature of modern Shanghai; Alleys constitute the most common living space for millions of ordinary Shanghainese; Alley is the most important part of modern Shanghai local culture.

2. Alleys, which Shanghainese call alleyways, are different from traditional houses in southern China and any western architectural form.

It can best represent the characteristics of modern Shanghai urban culture and is also the most direct product of modern Shanghai history.
