The 2.3-km long Hengshan Road was built in 1922. Half a
century has left on Hengshan Road a number of historical
architecture and humanistic sights with alien appeal. With
the growing prosperity of Xujiahui Commercial City, Hengshan
Road, as a branch street of the commercial center and with
its unique alien environmental feature has attracted a great
number of verseas personages and returned students from
abroad to invest in projects while bringing along new concept
of the operation of catering and recreational businesses.
On the west side of engshan Road is a European-style sidewalk
partition fence, a public landscaped corner and a new 'Long
Gallery of Oil Paintings'. At present, there are 167 catering,
recreational and gymnastic establishments on Hengshan Road.
Among them there are many bars with different styles and
elegantly decorated restaurants, which offer customers with
delicious food and quality service.
