No ticketing

Shanghai's largest 'new-style' lilong — rows of red-brick terraced houses dating from 1932 between West Nanjing Road and Weihai Road, still lived in by a few thousand people. It is the unrestored counterpart to Zhangyuan two blocks away: same housing type, no boutiques, laundry on the lines. You are walking through people's front yards, and the lane gates are theirs to close.

Beat the crowds

No tourist crowds, only residents' rhythms — morning shopping, evening cooking. Do not block the lane mouth for photos at mealtimes.

Can I walk into Shanghai's lane-house neighbourhoods, and how do I not be a nuisance?Depends · Yes, where the gate is open. It is someone's front yard, not a sight: camera down, voice low, out before dark.
