Shanghai | A fairytale castle with Russian architecture in the city center +1

| A fairytale castle with Russian architecture in the city center +1. I came across a photo of the Beijing Exhibition Center online🤣 and I thought, isn't this exactly like the Shanghai Exhibition Center! Next to Jing'an Temple in the center of Shanghai, there is an open building with fountains and gardens, resembling a palace. It is now the Shanghai Exhibition Center, which often hosts industry fairs and art exhibitions. 💡About the architecture ♦️In the 1950s, the Sino-Soviet Friendship Building rose from the ground, marking a new height for Shanghai. The entire complex exhibits Russian classical architectural style, with elements of Baroque art integrated into parts of it. ♦️Centered around the main hall, the tower and the red five-pointed star soar above, with other buildings surrounding it, unfolding along the central axis, forming a harmonious and grand whole. ♦️Stepping inside the building, one can find colorful terrazzo floors, richly designed lighting, and colored stained glass, with Russian classical architectural style present everywhere. ※※※※※※※※※※※※※※※※※※※※※※ 📍Address: 1000 Yan'an Middle Road, Jing'an District 🙋‍♀️Current Exhibition: Ran Qi Contemporary Art Fair
