Wukang Mansion: The first apartment building with a veranda in Shanghai, the eight-story structure looks like a giant ship and sits at the junction of Wukang Road and Huaihai Middle Road. It was selected as part of the city's second batch of outstanding historical buildings in 1994.

The Cottage Cafe and Bar: Located on the ground floor of Wukang Mansion, the cafe serves brunch and afternoon tea, in addition to coffee and other beverages. It also features a special area where old items bought by the owner are displayed.

Ferguson Lane: Located at 376 Wukang Road, the lane is also known as Wukangting or "small Europe". The Spanish- and French-style historical buildings in the courtyard housed diplomats during the Republic of China period, the office of the former Shanghai Instrument Bureau and a hotel where overseas celebrities stayed. The lane is now a fashionable courtyard with award-winning restaurants, shops selling wine, clothing and flowers, and galleries.
