A crossroads in the abandoned old city of Shanghai

            S. Guangqi Rd. & Qiaojia Rd., Shanghai
The old city was originally the county seat of Shanghai; after the arrival of Westerners in the mid-19th century, foreign settlements were built in the suburbs outside the old city, forming  the principal part of modern Shanghai, while the old city gradually stagnated and declined. Until 2019, this crossroads remains largely as it was in the early 20th century. From 2020, the shops and occupants here are being evicted and the buildings have been sealed off with concrete blocks and, soon, will be demolished.
