Private Tour of Shanghai's Jewish Quarter

We'll pick you up from your hotel and head to the Hongkou District, where Jewish refugees fleeing Europe made their new home in Shanghai.

As we stroll through this part of the city, we'll see the Ohel Moishe Synagogue, which is also home to the Jewish Refugee Museum. From here, we'll walk past Huoshan Park to visit Shanghai's only Jewish community commemorative plaque. During the tour, we'll discuss the hardships and adversity the refugees faced upon arrival, as well as the solidarity received from locals at the time.

Next up, we'll head to Doulun Road, a pedestrian street home to many historic buildings, museums, galleries, libraries, and cafes. Here, we'll appreciate the cultural and artistic diversity that can only be found in Shanghai. Many famous writers, artists, politicians, and revolutionaries have walked this bustling avenue.

Some of the places we'll pass by in Hongkou are Lu Xun House, Museum of Modern Art Shanghai, and Duolun History Museum, the latter of which narrates the evolution of this city street from the 19th century to the modern day. Additionally, we'll also pass by Kong Xiangxi Temple, originally built by a Chinese banker and politician.

After 3 hours exploring the fascinating Jewish Quarter of Shanghai, we'll bring you back to your hotel.
