Shanghai Tianzifang Travel Guide
Scenic spot introduction:
Tianzifang is known as "Shanghai's Soho", "Silicon Valley" of the visual industry, and "Xintiandi No. 2". It is the birthplace of Shanghai's fashion and creative industries. Tianzifang is located at No. 210, Taikang Road, and was transformed from a Shikumen building unique to Shanghai. Compared with the neatness of Nanluoguxiang and the grandeur of the imperial city, Tianzifang is graceful, petty bourgeois, and lingering with a smile. In 1998, painter Chen Yifei moved his studio here, and this lonely industrial factory began to welcome the artistic and creative gatherings of art centers, galleries, and studios. In 2004, artist Huang Yongyu came here to play and named it "Tianzifang". It is easiest to find unique things here, such as shawls and scarves that will never be repeated, jewelry of different styles, and unique new-style Tang suits, which are truly one-of-a-kind.Attractions distribution:
Compared with the fashionable landmark "Xintiandi", Tianzifang has a stronger atmosphere of life, where the warmth and noise of Shanghai coexist. Walking into Tianzifang, you will find many specialty shops and art workshops in the maze-like alleys. Chamijia , Shi Gallery, Smell Library , Leku Pottery Bar , The Art of Keeping White , Chen Yifei Studio There are teahouses, small galleries, home furnishings, handicrafts, creative studios; the upstairs is still a home. Foreigners sitting in coffee shops by the alleys, old men strolling on the streets, women passing by with baskets of vegetables. The new and the old, China and the West, the ethereal and the daily necessities meet and collide here, presenting a vibrant tension. Go to Tianzifang, sit in front of the small house and drink tea, watch the colorful crowds passing by, and watch the curious and hunting eyes wandering in the streets, only then can you understand Shanghai and its Shanghai culture deeply.Scenic spot qualifications:
