Description
Shanghai is an architectural phenomenon - it has more skyscrapers than New York, yet the important buildings from the 1920s and 30s have been preserved - a place where traditional culture rests easily alongside modern aesthetics. Shanghai Architecture is a superbly illustrated volume that takes readers on a fascinating journey through the history of the city - from the original walled enclave through the era of foreign settlements, to the steel and glass high-rises of the modern city. Organised into nine sections, each focusing on an important area of the city, and featuring little-know historic details and anecdotes about the area, this is an essential guide to discovering what makes Shanghai one of the most dynamic and vibrant cities in the world.
