8. The Bund, Shanghai上海外灘
The Bund, meaning embankment, was historically the seat of Shanghai's most powerful businessmen in the late 1800s and early 1900s. The Bund is a fabulous place to see examples of Shanghai's rich architectural history, illustrated by the HSBC Building, built in 1923 and at the time said to be "the most luxurious building between the Suez Canal and the Bering Strait."
外灘,在18世紀到19世紀期間是上海最有權(quán)勢商人們的住所。這里是游覽上海富豪建筑歷史范本的絕佳地點,包括史建于1923年的匯豐銀行大樓,當時它被稱為“蘇伊士運河和白令海峽之間最奢侈的建筑”。
