The theme cultural exhibition "Forever Xintiandi" is on display at the Shanghai Library on July 3.
When Xintiandi was born, Shanghai was in the urban development stage of major demolition and construction.
At that time, the old Shikumen alleys were in decline and faced the fate of being demolished.
Shikumen is the most culturally recognizable building in Shanghai.
Rejuvenating old buildings is like letting old trees bloom new flowers, which is extremely difficult.
At the exhibition site, novel mobile devices take people to the past through time, exploring and thinking about the path of organic renewal of cities in the new era.
