🏛️ Los Cincuenta y Dos Guardianes de Shanghai

On the banks of the Huangpu River in Shanghai stand fifty-two historic buildings constructed between 1920 and 1930. These buildings, in European architectural styles—Neoclassical, Gothic, Baroque, and Renaissance—served as the headquarters of banks, consulates, and trading houses from England, France, the United States, Italy, and other countries. Together, they form the 'International Architecture Exhibition,' where history is told through stone, columns, and windows. 🎓 Shanghai International Architecture Exhibition Shanghai boasts fifty-two historic European-style buildings constructed between 1920 and 1930 on the banks of the Huangpu River, known as the Bund, when Shanghai was the largest financial center in the East. — Chapters — 00:00 The Unknown Shore 02:11 The Journey Back in Time 04:43 New and Old Converse 06:33 The Shanghai Dream 📖 Sources https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/The_Bund https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/The_Bund https://www.chinaeducationaltours.com... 🌍 This episode in other languages • 🇨🇳 Chinese version:    • 🏛️ 爷爷讲述的五十二个故事   • 🇺🇸 English:    • The Clock Tower's Rain Song 🌧️   🌙 Bedtime Stories · Streets of Europe Bedtime stories based on real European history and folklore 🔗 My other channels We also have channels in Chinese and English: • 旧巷有灯 —    / @hao3616   深夜电台 · 一街一故事 • 小灯巷睡前故事 —    / @小灯巷睡前故事   用真实历史和传说讲给孩子的睡前故事 • Lantern Lane Stories —    / @lanternlanestories   Bedtime stories for kids — real European history & folklore • 灯影档案 —    / @灯影档案   灯下读暗事 · 真实未解 · 历史悬案 • 灯下野史 —    / @灯下野史   灯下读史 · 长短皆有
