The city that is more than just a metropolis of modernity

By CAO CHEN in Shanghai | CHINA DAILY | Updated: 2021-05-18 00:00

Fast-paced lifestyles, a business and fashion hub, and a technology innovation center-these are the things most people associate with Shanghai today. However, despite these modern traits, the metropolis is also rich in resources associated with the history of the Communist Party of China.

Ranging from memorials of historic sites, to former residences of leading members, to martyrs' cemeteries, more than 657 cultural sites related to the Party and revolutionary history can be found across the city.

In recent decades, the local government has been busy restoring these resources and integrating them into the tourism industry.
