Old French Concession Travel Guide

Shanghai sans the French Concession would be like London minus Kensington and Chelsea.

The French Concession is a name that you would not find appearing on any Chinese maps. However, it ranged elegantly from Huangpu District, through the district of Luwan and Xuhui and slices of Changning and Jingan Distict.

The French Concession is the area of Shanghai once designated for the French. Today, the area´s central Huaihai Rd is a busy shopping street, but the tree-lined avenues and their many Tudor mansions still retain an air of the "Paris of the East".

The French Concession is a residential,retail,restaurant and bar district with atmospheric tree-lined street.
