Laid out in 1925 and protected from widening, Xinhua Road is lined with detached garden houses in English, Spanish and other styles; Lanes 211 and 329 are the U-shaped 'foreign lane' where consulates and foreign families once lived. It is a quiet residential street where locals walk under the trees.
