On Sunday, participate in the "walking Shanghai" activity, passing by the freshwater intersection of Fuxing Middle Road, see that the door has been closed, and the gates of the holy churches that are not allowed to enter are all open. People come and go so lively, rush over, and learn that today's worship, the church opens. The Quakers came, and observed that the Quakers were mostly elderly women. The worship was also a big activity for their social network. Watching them wear neat and beautiful clothes, smiling faces from the heart, listening to their laughter, I really couldn't bear to disturb their peace. Go in and take a few photos of the lobby. The church was built in 1925 by the American Episcopal missionary, Pastor McGanzi, and Chinese teacher Wang Xiaokui. It is a spire-top wooden structure, a typical 17th-century Episcopal high school church. Red brick, triangular roof, roof rack exposed, round rose window on the Colin column porch. The interior is a regular Basilica-style three-porch. The square bell tower near the northwest corner has 63 steps. The roof cross is also a feature of the building.

    The foundation-laying ceremony was held on October 3, 1930, the "Little Deleazar of the Holy Lady". It is a Gothic building with two clock towers and can accommodate nearly 1,000 people. Cross-shaped plane, facade similar to Christian Jingling Church, floor height 9.48 meters, plane layout and roof slope, and front and side facade pointed coupon windows are shown in American college gothic style.

    Built in 1925, the Shanghai Holy Church on Fuxing Middle Road is a key historical building with great humanistic value, but usually overlooked by tourists passing through it.

    The facilities of the Churches are in a 17th-century architectural style, in the form of Anglican high-school churches, red bricks, and triangular roofs. The "most distinctive" of many main churches in Shanghai is very valuable for humanistic and historical use. Take Metro Line 10 to Xintiandi Station.

    Shanghai Christian Church in Fuxing Square, Piling, Xintiandi Station, Line 10, Xiuhongwall brick, triangular roof, square tower, very attractive to explore. The gate of the religious holy place is locked all year round and is not open to non-believers. Borrowing the opening day of the historical building, I finally could go in and see the baroque curling pattern on the cement column of the main building porch. I found a semi-circle rose window on the side of the clipway. It is said that the lobby can accommodate 500 people is solemn, simple and not too much decoration. The side hall and the tower are not allowed to visit. Volunteers in the house near the back door are holding a sale. At this moment, the painting style of the holy church has changed, there is no tall, mysterious, and a little closeness.
