Hip hangouts on Fenyang Road
AS Taojiang Road meets Fenyang Road, the peaceful atmosphere changes to a busier, dynamic vibe. This section of the former French concession is home to a variety of restaurants, bars and boutiques which showcase food and fashion from across the globe. This week we continued our search from the cross road of Taojiang Road and Fenyang Road down toward Fuxing Road M. A beautiful Italian restaurant, quirky fashion boutique and a lively sports bar are just some of what the top section of Fenyang Road has to offer.
