Retired ladies' pleasure

Zhangs' Garden, N. Maoming Rd., Shanghai

Despite the chilly wind, they dressed up for the trip, some even bringing several outfits, just to be photographed in this luxury shopping area converted from an old residential compound.

 

The old Zhangs' Garden, a famous garden as well as social and entertainment venue in the centre of Shanghai from the 19th to the early 20th century, was however replaced by a residential compound in the 1930s. About five or six years ago, developers took a liking to the area and, with the assistance of the district government, relocated all the residents of the residential compound and transformed the original complex into an upmarket commercial and leisure area named 'Zhangs' Garden', attracting many luxury brands such as Dior and Bulgari to the area.
