“Interesting!”
Nov 2020
It was a rainy day when we went. Not a good idea. Gotta go back for another visit. Interesting street with early 20th century architecture. However, I wished the shops were opened. Not sure whether they are closed on the day we went or not open at all. Even the most intriguing building was closed.. a 1928 church that looks like a Chinese temple. This street houses old residences of famous writers. I appreciate the names of these writers in English and a short description about them, and their statues. Wished they did up the old residences and turn them into museums!

A Cool Walk Down Memory...er...Historical Lane
I lived in an apartment in this area long before the change. At that time, I used to hear the "old timers" spin yarns nightly about how Duolun Road was back in the day, back in the Roaring 20s and the turbulent 30s. Now the city has beautified the area, restoring it (to an extent, albeit) to its former glory. Wear your walking shoes, as you are in for a good trek. And it would be highly recommended that you brush up on your history of the area before arriving--if nothing else, check out Wiki's webpage, which has a pretty decent amount of info.

A very pleasant and interesting site
Apr 2014 • Couples
My review: Location - Duolun Road. Getting there, take Subway line # 3, metro station Dongbaoxing Rd. Walk for 10-15 minutes from subway station to Duolun Road (on your left side).
This is a renovated quarter of 2-3 streets which used to be the area were famous poets, writers and generals (affiliated with Shan-Kai-Shek?) lived. It has lots of lovely homes and sculptures of the famous poets and writers that lived here (I didn’t see a single sculpture of a general…). It also has some lovely antique shop and a few upscale but lovely coffee shops. The Shanghai Duolun Museum of Modern Art located there (at No 27 Duolun Rd) was closed when we were there. It seemed that they were preparing for a new exhibit. Though definitely remodeled and renovated, it doesn’t have a sterile feel to it and it was very pleasant and interesting to walk there.

A beautiful street with a focus on the Chinese scrijvers and poets
Jul 2013 • Friends
Duolun, famous cultural street person, a street that has become established there by the Society for writers and artists known (is no longer). A number of buildings have been extensively restored, perhaps too good. In the car-free street are some beautiful bronze statues of famous Chinese writers/poets, like Shen Yimo, Guo Moruo and Ding Ling. There is also a Christian church in a combined Chinese - European style (still in use). We also visited a colonial cinema with an original-looking design. The interior (furniture, paneling, stairs etc) consists of lots of dark, beautifully finished wood. The European style of the colonial thirties is nicely combined with Chinese techniques and Chinese forms. The visit is part of a very successful tour of Wheely Bike Tours of Ellen Petit.

Add This Hidden Treasure to Your List of Shanghai Walks
Nov 2018 • Solo
This area is a little island of historic buildings along an L shaped tree-lined cobble-stone street. The architecture is striking and has that hybrid European/Shanghai look, with many dating back to the early 1930s. Some of the buildings have plaques as well as historical bronze figures, (Charlie Chapman included) that tell the story of the neighborhood. Along the way are some atmospheric coffee shops and pubs. There is a notable historic church with unique Chinese architecture and Shanghai Newspaper Museum and the Shanghai Doulun Museum of Contemporary Art along the route. For those of you into collecting antiques of the era, there are some fun looking shops with curios and old books. It was a great place to spend a couple hours on a weekend afternoon. My Google maps took me into the are through a construction zone, but once through that, it was like stepping into another world.

Lovely stroll

The street is really lovely and filled with History. Though not very big, it’s a great spot for a walk, and a cup of coffee before heading to the Park nearby...

This is a boring walk down a quiet street with some statues outside the closed buildings. Don’t bother.
