East China University of Political Science and Law, Changning Campus

The Changning Campus of East China University of Political Science and Law, which is adjacent to Shanghai Zhongshan Park in the south and Suzhou River in the north, was originally the site of the St. John's University campus. Many of the historical buildings on campus were built from the late 19th century to the early 20th century, with a total of 27 buildings combining Chinese and Western styles, making Huazhong University of Science and Technology an "architectural museum" worthy of careful appreciation. With the transformation of the Huazheng section of the Suzhou River Riverside Trail into a riverside landscape trail, the century-old historical buildings of St. John's University are integrated with the natural landscape of the Suzhou River, providing a great place for urban residents to relax and unwind. Whether you are strolling along the beautiful riverside and the fully widened trails, or walking into the historic Huazheng campus, the buildings that combine Chinese and Western styles allow you to travel back to the past and have a close conversation with history. Especially when standing on the Huazheng Bridge across the Suzhou River, you can see that the red brick and green tile campus forms a wonderful contrast with the modern high-rise buildings in the distance. At present, Huazhong University of Science and Technology has been transformed into the first fully open historical campus in Shanghai, allowing citizens and tourists to enjoy the rare tranquility and leisure in this bustling urban area to the maximum extent, and enjoy the most beautiful public space.
