Shopping in Nanjing Road
Often considered as the number one business street in China, Nanjing Road is often compared with the Champs Elysees in Paris and Fifth Avenue in New York in terms of fame and bustling environment.
Stretching for 5.5 km, starting at The Bund and ending in the west at the junction of Jing'an Temple, it's a long stretch of pedestrian street that houses many shops and key commercial enterprises in China.
This is where you can shop at Yongan Commercial Building, the number one department store in Shanghai, and old honor shops, such as Maochang Optical Shop and Old Fengxiang Gold & Jewelry Shop.
The businesses at the Nanjing Road were the first to introduce hanging gardens, escalators, top-level restaurants, tearooms, and a range of amusement performances for everyone's entertainment.
More than just a shopping district, however, the Nanjing Road has a rich history. What started out as a treaty port is now a flourishing shopping district that has expanded an extended over the years.
