Description

Vintage photographs of Shanghai in black and white and colour have been matched with the same viewpoint today to reveal the history of this vibrant and rapidly expanding city.

Shanghai Then and Now brings together rare archival images of this thrilling cosmopolitan city and matches them with specially commissioned photos of the same sites as they appear today. Vaughan Grylls (author/photographer of four other titles in the Then and Now series: Oxford, Cambridge, Hong Kong and Singapore) has rounded up all of the key sites that make up this fascinating and diverse city, from Jesuit cathedrals, Jewish synagogues and Buddhist temples to neoclassical banks, art deco hotels, and the super-tall skyscrapers of the Pudong district. The breathtaking contrast between past and present make this a fascinating addition to the long-running Then and Now series.

Sites include: The Bund, Yu Garden, Oriental Pearl TV Tower, East Nanjing Road, Jing'an Temple, Jade Buddha Temple, People's Square, Shanghai Tower, Longhua Temple and Pagoda, Shanghai Museum, St. Ignatius Cathedral, Dongping National Forest Park, Lu Xun Park, Nanpu Bridge, Shanghai Club Building, HSBC Building, Shanghai Stadium, Shanghai Tower, Natural History Museum, Shanghai World Financial Center, Zhang Garden, Shanghai Exhibition Center, Moller House, Custom House.
