Tianshan Hongqiao Gubei, Lintel Shanghai

Tianshan Hongqiao Gubei

Hongqiao, Gubei & Tianshan are the 3 most popular residential areas in Changning District and cover an area of 136.6 hectares. Gubei is best known as an enclave of East Asian expatriates in Shanghai, including those from Japan, South Korea, Hong Kong, Macau and Taiwan. As a result Gubei is sometimes informally referred to as "Little Tokyo", "Little Taipei" or "K-town". Gubei also has a significant number of expatriates from other regions, mainly Europe and North America. There is still much in Hongqiao gubei’s favor: A critical mass of expatriate residents, proximity to international schools, entertainment, sports facilities and shops. For many, these benefits are likely to outweigh the travelling time to offices in the city centre which in any case rarely now exceeds 30 minutes even for those who use the excellent bus service.
