MuseumLocal favourite

A 1905 mansion built for the head of the French Concession council, nicknamed the 'Little White House', now showing Shanghai folk crafts, carving and embroidery, including Feng Qiuping's knitted peacock shawl and ivory carving. Small and quiet, on a plane-tree road most visitors only pass on the way to Wukang Road.
