If you half closed your eyes you might think you were in 1950s Paris. The French Concession where I stayed has tree-lined streets, 1920s mansions, and French-inspired architecture. The main drag is Huaihai Road named after a battle that ended with the communists routing the Kuomintang during the civil war.
The apartment blocks like in Paris go back to alleys with more apartments.
Even the bicycles seem out of 1950s Paris.
