Step into Zhonghengwei, where time stands still in Shanghai's old alleyways. Cobblestone paths wind past brick walls draped with laundry, while the scent of stir-fries drifts from open windows. This is where locals play mahjong on sidewalks, kids chase each other past century-old soy sauce shops, and steam baskets of soup dumplings wait around hidden corners—each bite unleashes a burst of crab roe goodness. Don't miss the street calligrapher turning memories into scrolls with a flick of his brush!
