EDITORS COMMENTS
Step back in time to the bustling streets of Shanghai's Chinese Native Quarter in the early 20th century, as depicted in this photograph from Mary Evans Prints Online. The image captures the unique charm and character of this historic district, with its low-slung tea houses nestled along the waterfront. The shades and marquees of the tea houses provide a welcoming respite from the sun, inviting passersby to take a moment of rest and reflection. During this period, Shanghai was a thriving international metropolis and the Chinese Native Quarter was a vibrant and diverse community, where Chinese culture and traditions were preserved amidst the influences of foreign powers. The tea houses were an integral part of daily life, serving as social hubs where friends and family would gather to enjoy a cup of tea and engage in lively conversation. The low tide reveals the intricate details of the waterfront, with the wooden planks of the tea houses and the boats moored nearby adding to the scene's textured beauty. The photograph offers a glimpse into the rich history of Shanghai and the Chinese community, providing a window into a bygone era that continues to captivate and inspire. This photograph, taken circa 1920, is a testament to the enduring allure of Shanghai's Chinese Native Quarter and the important role that tea houses played in the lives of its residents. It is a reminder of the city's complex and fascinating history, which continues to be celebrated and explored by visitors and locals alike.
