Jing An Temple
The Jing An district is named after the iconic Jing An Buddhist temple, a heritage site of magnificent gilded architecture.

The temple’s history dates back to 1216, in the Song dynasty. Over the centuries, it has undergone various transformations. The site houses the largest jade Buddha in China and a copper bell from the Ming dynasty.

In 1921, the temple was expanded, further enhancing its grandeur. The site became a plastic factory during the Cultural Revolution, and a fire destroyed its foundation. Finally, the temple underwent a million-dollar restoration in 1983.

Jing An Park
Developed as a city park in 1954, Jing An Park is located in the heart of the city. It features fountains, lush greenery and blooming flowers. Visitors can enjoy displays of tai chi every morning from Shanghai’s elderly citizens who go to the park to exercise. In another corner, bird lovers often gather to admire one another’s prized song birds.

Shanghai Exhibition Centre
The Shanghai Exhibition Centre is a historic symbol of the Sino-Soviet friendship of the 1950s and ‘60s. Inspired by Soviet neo-classical architecture, the project was a gift from Joseph Stalin to the People’s Republic of China.

Yu Garden
Created during the Ming Dynasty by Pan Yun Duan, then finance minister of Sichuan, Yu Garden has survived the rise and fall of dynasties. It is now a key relic site protected by the state.

Spreading over 5 acres, the garden displays the magnificence of Ming architecture with later Qing Dynasty influences. 

The intricate design and façade of the towers are complemented by the garden’s lake. Special lighting combines modernity and tradition, and the site is transformed when the sun sets.

Next to Yu Garden is one of Shanghai’s unique bazaars, where visitors can enjoy local delicacies while shopping for souvenirs. Nearby is Yuyuan Old Street, known as the centre of trade in pre-modern China, as well as the ancient Cheng Huang Temple.

Chairman Mao's Former Residence
The Mao House was the former residence of Chairman Mao Zedong, during his third visit to Shanghai. In his lifetime, Mao made 55 trips to the city. During his stay from May to July 1920, Mao made several political contributions from this humble residence on Anyi Road.

Apart from playing an integral role in the making of the Hunan Self-Government Movement, the future Communist Party leader also penned several papers from this apartment.

Listed today as an official site for Red Tourism, the Mao House is protected by the state. It is part of the Jing An Kerry Centre and is undergoing restoration as a museum.

Jing An Sculpture Park is an exhibition space for public art in downtown Shanghai, with an area of 66,000 square meters. In an effort to beautify green urban space, the park displays sculpture and landscape designs. It has become a cultural and recreational destination for Shanghai residents and visitors.
