Trendy fabrics and resplendent jewelry can be used to embellish your body, but how can your soul seek meaning in city life? Trendsetters are deeply aware that only “art” is a topic that always remains vital. If you fail to seek books hidden with artistic ambience and soak yourself in books, you might as well start from artistic Xuhui for a long travel to read the essence of the integration of Eastern and Western cultures.
Xujiahui Observatory – As a building with classical Roman architecture integrating meteorology, astronomy, and geomagnetism into one, it witnessed the development history of China's modern meteorology and also received official certification by the World Meteorological Organization.
Xujiahui Catholic Church – With Italian shale tiles, surrounding red ganged bricks, exquisite and complicated stained glass windows, and a medieval gothic style, it is still as magnificent and holy as the “Far East First Cathedral” of the past.
Xujiahui Library – Featuring white walls, a red roof, and concise and refreshing European pilaster window-shades, it collects half of the history of Chinese-Western communication in the modern times. The hardcover books are arranged tightly, sleepy in sunshine and dust, waiting to be awakened by hands that crave knowledge.
