If you are into history, culture and architecture, Hongkou is the district that you should never miss out on!

Within three hour's time on a scooter, you'll quickly have a better grasp of the history of Hongkou and Shanghai! What's worth mentioning about this Scooter Tour is, Hongkou is undergoing massive demolition and rectification at the moment, many old houses will cease to exist by the end of July. Join us to see for yourself before they are gone!

Even though Hongkou is not as grand and glamorous as Jing'an Temple or West Nanjing Road, the cultural presence here is intense enough to capture your attention: a seemingly ordinary and unremarkable buidling by the corner, might just happen to be the very place where Shanghai generously sheltered the Jewish refugees who traveled across the continent to look for a safe place. These places and Shanghai were like their second home in the following twenty years. Here, you'll be able to hear the old stories from these old buildings.
