Get off at Dapuqiao Station on Metro Line 9, and after about a 5-minute walk, you'll arrive at Tianzifang, a cultural and creative area transformed from Shanghai's Shikumen architecture. Initially, it attracted many people working in the cultural and creative industries because artists like Chen Yifei established studios here. Over time, it has become a complex area filled with food, bars, and various souvenir shops, creating a place rich in cultural and creative vibes. Strolling through Tianzifang feels like wandering through a small maze, constantly surprised by everything around you. Despite the flashy and eye-catching shops, the upstairs still houses the simple residences of local residents, creating a contrasting beauty of commercial and residential life. While leisurely enjoying a drink, creative food, and shopping for souvenirs, you can also spend some time visiting a few art studios, adding a touch of artistic flair to your day's sightseeing and making your trip more fulfilling. 📍Address: No. 210, Taikang Road, Huangpu District, Shanghai, China

Just back from an unforgettable Shanghai trip! Strolled down the bustling Nanjing Road, then took in the stunning skyline at The Bund. Explored the elegant Wukang Mansion and artsy Tianzifang. Yu Garden offered serene beauty, while City God Temple immersed me in rich culture. Shanghai dazzles at every turn! I would definitely return to this wonderful place at some point in the future. #ShanghaiAdventure #shanghai

#chinatrip One of my favorite places to visit in Shanghai, it is just so picturesque! Nice little shops, well decorated alleys, great snacks around and so perfect for taking pictures! Pretty from the outside but not much to see inside. It's mostly shops with repeating themes like the rabbit milk candy. Found a cool shop with really cute pins though. You can just take a few pictures and leave, and definitely skippable.

|Tianzifang, a 'petty bourgeois' old alley. Shanghai|Tianzifang, a 'petty bourgeois' old alley. Shanghai Tianzifang is a very 'petty bourgeois' place, where everyone can taste coffee, or evaluate some artworks. ◎There are also many residential houses, be careful not to accidentally break into the residential houses with a literary style. The alleys inside are crisscrossed, be careful not to get lost. Tianzifang has several entrances. Transportation: Exit 1 of Dapuqiao Station on Line 9 of the subway, about 200 meters on foot.

Tianzifang田子坊 Taking small walk during the day in one of the most historical places in Shanghai. So many tiny cute stores galleries, coffeshops and bars. It's very colorful and bright with greeneries hugging old buildings. Many shops offer free tasting of candies tea ice cream etc. If you a tourist in Shanghai-highly recommend to visit this spot and spend few hours walking through the labyrinth of history #shanghaistyle #shanghailife #shanghaiweekend#shanghaitravel #streetwalk

What I really like about small shops in Shanghai is the super cute entrance design with main display facing consumers at the doors where you can see the most adorable and beautiful products such as perfume, chocolate, tea, souvenirs etc. Every store has its own style and never repetitive. All door entrance has its own decoration and unforgettable signage. Like a small universe after each door 🚪 🪐🪄 #streetwalk #shanghaitravel #shanghaistyle #shanghai #shanghailife

Imagine you are in Shanghai. It is Saturday evening, you don’t know where to hang out with your friends, I just have a word: Tianzifang! This street is very popular in Shanghai to have many bars, restaurants and shops. Crowded after work, this place is the one where you need to be if you want to have fun and chill with your crew 😎 Located in Tianzifang, you need to find a gate to go through but no big deal. I do recommend this place guys. ENJOY 😉 #mytripvlog #adventure #urbanexplorer

Address: 210 Taikang Rd, Huangpu, Shanghai, China, 200023 Highlights: The Tianzifang is a very nice market in the old Shanghai Street maze. It is worth going just to get the idea of the old times. The historic buildings are still maintained and most of the place is filled with art galleries. Even though this is one of the main tourist spots in Shanghai and has lot of crowd all through out the day but its still kept well clean and maintained, even the smaller streets around this area. 🤩 Moreover, the shops here are really nice and you can find typical souvenirs with a bit more local flair. However, there is no bargaining here and you can pay with card in most shops. I really enjoy spending time here!😊 #shinsider #culturewalk #shanghai

🎈 Location: TianziFang, Shanghai TianziFang is a super nice area to stroll in. There are multiple shops with postcards, accessories, paintings, clothes, little craft shops and snacks kiosks. Also there are various restaurants, where you can have a bite. In the middle of the street, around one of the corners there are stairs that lead upstairs, follow the stairs and you will find a way to the roof. It's perfect for taking the photos and just chilling there looking at the buildings . Also I really liked ome of the shops with earrings there, can't recall the name now, but it was very small and nice. 🎈How to get there: Subway line 9, DaPuQiao station or taxi.

Tianzifang is located at Lane 210, Taikang Road, Huangpu District, Shanghai. It is a national 3A-level scenic spot. Tian Zifang, whose real name is Zhichengfang, is an ancient Chinese painter. Living in this environment, there is an unexpected artistic beauty.

+ As everyone knows, Shanghai is an international city but Tianzifang embodies the unity of both western and Chinese seamlessly. I’ve been spending a lot of CNY holiday time here recently so it’s about time I’ve shared my thoughts on it. located in the heart of Shanghai, its historical alleyways of ancient Chinese design are home to a myriad of shops, bars, restaurants and entertainment facilities. Many of which are have English and are clearly tourist friendly. The Bars in my opinion are the main attraction. You can always find your favourite brand of beverages and alcohol in one the stylish boutique drinking holes. This environment really helps you relax whether you’re traveling, have a night out with friends, taking the edge off after work, which I usually enjoy doing once or twice a week on my own. #tigeryear2022

Tianzifang ~ ancient and nostalgic alley, full of hipster art atmosphere, very exotic, casual shooting is beautiful, here there is a handmade sour and spicy powder taste good, Shanghai worth visiting area. 👍👍👍👍 Taikang Road, Dapuqiao, Huangpu District, Shanghai, China

Getting There - metro line 9 (Dapuqiao Station) Attractions - lots of quirky shops and nice places to eat. It's nice to spend an afternoon around Tianzifang. Although it gets crowded during the weekends, it's a good place to buy souvenirs from Shanghai! #awesomepic#couplestrip#urbanexplorer

Getting There - By subway: Dapuqiao line 9. I personally rode a bike there after my little stroll on Wukang street! Attractions - Plenty of shops and a cool vibe! Hotels - Pretty sure there are plenty around there! Food & Restaurants - Tons of snacks shops and some sit down restaurants . Shopping - Souvenirs , artsy shops, food and other interesting stuff! #summervacation#urbanexplorer

As you navigate the maze of alleys on Tianzifang lane, unique shops and art workshops appear before your eyes, ranging from teahouses, open-air restaurants, outdoor coffee shops, galleries, home furnishings, and handicrafts to countless creative studios. Who could ask for more?

When you come to Tianzifang, you can live in a hotel in the lane and experience what old Shanghai looks like. 👏🏼Wooden houses crunched and crunched, which makes people feel nostalgic and nervous. And the staircase are too narrow to allow more than one person to pass, and the width of the steps is only within my palm.👣 I walk carefully and try my best to imitate the elegance and manners of Shanghai women. The wooden windows open in the morning, and the neighbours in the old building are already busy in the morning. The window frames out different images of the street outside.🤳 #happynewyear

Tian Zifang was originally a small alley in Xuhui District. After being transformed here a few years ago, it has become a well-known landmark in Shanghai. Many young people like to visit here. Many of the shops here are particularly fun. Especially the Big White Rabbit Toffee Shop. There are especially many people who buy it.

📍Shanghai I always come to Tianzifang everytime i visit Shanghai. I always like the vibes there. The lights especially. Tianzifang’s architecture is so unique. It is basically inside an alley and there’s an alley inside an alley. So many bars, western restaurant, snacks, unique beverages, souvenirs shops. I always like to come to this type of place (night market i guess?)

I like to have a taste of life, Shanghai Tianzifang, Beijing's Nanluoguxiang. The commercial atmosphere is blowing in the face, and it is exactly the same as Nanluoguxiang. If you don't like Nanluoguxiang, you don't have to come to Tianzifang. There will be fewer people coming in the morning, and more than 10 stores are basically open. If you just want to stroll around, 1 hour is enough. From Tianzifang, you can walk to Xintiandi and Sinan Road. Here you can drink milk tea, send postcards, buy souvenirs, and no one is interested in the history and architecture of Tianzifang. photograph tips

Suddenly one day, Tianzifang became a new must-have punching point besides the Bund Chenghuang Temple Yuyuan Garden. Just like the Shantang Street in Suzhou and the wide and narrow alley in Chengdu, Tianzifang became a new literary landmark. Tianzifang was originally a small street in the Dapuqiao area of Shanghai. The typical later commercial transformation, combined with the entry of various artist painters, gathered a creative shop, gallery coffee from an ordinary Shikumen alley. The literary land of the museum. The photo of literary fan is best for this place. It is recommended to sweep the street in 35, both indoors and outdoors. Of course, wide angle is also a good choice.

I went to Shanghai during the winter vacation and stayed at the same hotel as Wang Shun - The Langham, Shanghai, Xintiandi. I was totally impressed! I have to tell you all about it! 📍 The location is perfect. It's located in the heart of Xintiandi, Shanghai. It's a fashion hub, so you can go shopping, enjoy delicious food, and take photos all in one place. It's easy to keep up with the fast pace of city life. 🏨 The hotel has been open for more than ten years, but it's well maintained. As soon as you step into the lobby, you can feel the luxurious and elegant atmosphere. The crystal chandelier in the lobby is dazzling, and every detail shows the high quality of the Langham. The staff are enthusiastic and professional, and I was impressed right away! 🛏 The room is warm and comfortable, and the facilities are complete. The smart devices are very convenient, and the turndown service is very thoughtful. I was very happy. From the hotel, you can walk to the artistic Tianzifang, the Shanghai Museum (People's Square), the site of the First National Congress of the Communist Party of China, and other famous attractions. You can go shopping and eat at Xintiandi and the K11 Art Mall. There are also many restaurants nearby, which is very convenient. I happened to stay during the Spring Festival, and the hotel was decorated for the holiday. The exquisite New Year decorations in the lobby created a festive atmosphere.
