Old ZiZhong Road antique street






Old antique street at DongTai Lu next to ZiZhong road in Luwan District in Shanghai PR China.
Famous for its antiques and for people who loves old stuffs, this is a must see place when visiting Shanghai.
Most of the stall owners here stay in the old apartment above their business. Went there on the 4th day of the chinese lunar new year where these stall are open for a 'good luck' start for the year.
Is interesting to see that the people living here
still hang their clothes outside their window, bird cages on the tree and hundred of electrical wiring and phone lines zig zag across the street.
