How about Shanghai Longchang Apartment? Where is the address?

Shanghai is the kind of city with a long history. Longchang apartment is a product of history. This is the shooting place of Kung Fu, which was registered as an immovable culture in 2004. What kind of story is there? Let's have a look!

Longchang apartment was built in the 1920s and 1930s. It is said that it was designed by the British. Formerly known as the Inspection Department of Gulun Road, it is the office of the Inspection Department of the public concession. The prison bars set up for prisoners at that time are now interdependent.

Most of the residents nearby are office workers or businessmen. They moved here because of the low rent and convenient transportation, and there have been about 250 households. Due to its unique historical role and value, Shanghai Longchang Apartment was listed as an immovable cultural relic in 2004.

Location of scenic spots: Lane 468, Longchang Road, Yangpu District, Shanghai

Anyone who has seen Stephen Chow's film Kung Fu must be deeply impressed by the village of Pig Cage. Longchang apartment is called the realistic version of the pig cage village. This compound, which was built at the beginning of last century, has witnessed the development of Shanghai through many vicissitudes. The building consists of a circle of six-story circular apartments around the middle open space, much like the modern version of Fujian tulou.

The whole apartment is like a square tube building like the Colosseum in ancient Rome, with a spacious yard in the middle, like a big square, surrounded by five-story buildings and dust around it, like a "besieged city". Standing in the yard and looking up is like a frog sitting in a well looking at the sky.

Instead of looking at the newly renovated Shikumen old community, it is better to come here and see the Longchang apartment that was really built in the 1920s and 1930s. Much like the pig cage city village in Stephen Chow movies. The whole apartment is a tubular building like Fujian tulou, with a spacious yard in the middle. The yard is quite large. Now I have stopped a lot of cars and stood in the yard looking up. The dense buildings around the five-story building really look like a besieged city. When I came in, my vision was very shocking.

There are still many old Shanghainese living here, so visit here as quietly as possible. It turns out that many photographers come to take pictures, and residents are probably tired of saying that they are not allowed to take pictures at the door, which was not available a few years ago.

There are typical clothes drying poles in old Shanghai, which are densely distributed throughout the yard. There are many places with very poor accommodation conditions in modern Shanghai. Everyone looks glamorous, which is just one side of the city, and the other side is the life of ordinary people.

This kind of cultural architecture is still rare today. Partners who go to Shanghai must go and see it!
