The Jinshan North Station offers visitors a unique opportunity to experience nature and history in this coastal district.

For over a millennium, the village of Jinshanzui in Jinshan district in Shanghai has lived on the waters of Hangzhou Bay. The seaside community offers vistas of the three Jinshan Islands across glistening waters.

In the 1980s, Jinshanzui was a fishing hub with over 1,000 fishermen. While most villagers have long since traded their nets for other pursuits, former fishermen can still be found in the old town's alleyways.
