2、ent styles, such as Gothic, Roman, Baroque, Chinese and western wall style, in the west, are known as the World Architecture Expo Group.Facing the open mother river, Huangpu River, the Bund leans back on the buildings with rigorous modeling and different styles. Because of its unique geographical lo
3、cation and its influence on Shanghai and even China in the field of economic activities in the past century, it has a very rich cultural connotation.

6、 a metropolis.The Bund got its nameHuangpu River is the largest river flowing through Shanghai. The source of Huangpu River is located in Longwangshan nature reserve, Anji, Zhejiang Province. As the Huangpu River is connected to the sea, it is affected by tides. On average, there are obvious rising
7、and falling tides twice a day. The water level drop in a day can reach more than 4 meters. In case of astronomical spring tide, the water level drop will be even greater. (as for the source of Huangpu River, some said it was in Dianshan Lake, others said it was in Taihu Lake. However, it is rare to
8、see lakes as the source of rivers in the world geography. Moreover, Taihu Lake is a shallow lake basin with water from many sources, which can not be regarded as a complete source. Only by finding the source of Taihu Lake can we find the real source of Huangpu River. After investigation and research
9、, Xitiaoxi, located at the foot of Longwang mountain, has a drainage area of 2800 square kilometers with a length of 145 kilometers, 1.8 billion cubic meters of water.

10、the source of Huangpu River. )150 years ago, Shanghai was only a medium-sized County along the coast of the south of the Yangtze River. The shipping industry was very underdeveloped, and people did not have the necessity or ability to build embankments along the river. Therefore, most of the river b
11、anks were natural beaches except the Huangpu River bank in Dongmen. At ebb tide, the river water stagnates in the center of the riverbed, exposing a large area of beach. At high tide, the river never crossed the bank. Huangpu River is the main channel of Shanghai. Because the river is wide and the w
12、ater is fast, ships going against the river have to pull their boats. For hundreds of years, the track of the trackers has stepped on a winding path on the Huangpu River beach, which is known as the trackway, which is the earliest Road on the Bund.In terms of place names used in Shanghai, the upstre
13、am of the river is generally called Li, and the downstream of the river is called Wai. For example, people in Shanghai today are used to call Hanyang road and Bridge on Hongkou port Lihong bridge, Changzhi Road and bridge Zhonghong bridge, and Daming Road and bridge Waihong bridge, which is named ac
14、cording to the location of the river where the bridge is located. Similarly, the first bridge of the Suzhou River entering the Huangpu River estuary is called Wai Bai Du bridge. The bridge in turn is also commonly known as the Li Bai Du bridge (now Zhapu Luqiao) and the three Bai Du bridge (now Sich
15、uan Luqiao). For example, based on the county seat, the place close to the city is called Li, and the place far away from the city is called Wai. Todays southern urban area is named lixiangua Street and waixiangua Street; Licang bridge and waicang bridge are named after this.The Huangpu River near t
16、he county seat of Shanghai forms a sharp bend at the exit of Lujiabang, so the Shanghainese take Lujiabang as the boundary. Its upstream is called lihuangpu and its downstream is called waihuangpu. The beaches in lihuangpu are called lihuangpu Beach for short, and the beaches in waihuangpu are calle
17、d waihuangpu Beach for short.After 1840, Shanghai, as one of the five trading ports, opened to the outside world.

18、on to the early 1940s, the Bund was occupied by the British concession and the French concession, and was called the Bund of the British concession and the Bund of France respectively.
