What to expect
Tilanqiao
1h 30m
At the appointed time this morning, your private guide and driver will meet you at your own booked hotel.
You will be guided to visit the former Tilanqiao Jewish Isolation Region first, also named Shanghai Ark Area, meaning the city protected nearly 20,000 Jewish refugees from Europe and erected a "Noah's Ark" for them. This trip will introduce the Jewish dwelling district before and during World War II (1939 - 1945).
Shanghai Jewish Refugees Museum
2h · Admission ticket included
We will first visit the Jewish Refugees Museum, the most important part of the Tilanqiao area. As an old site of the Jewish synagogue, it has now been transformed into a museum to commemorate the history of over 20,000 Jewish refugees in Shanghai during World War II.
The Museum’s exhibition hall is divided into six parts. Up to 161 notable events during the Jewish’s stay are displayed with around 1,000 exhibits and historical materials.
1h 30m · Admission ticket included
The next destination will be Huoshan Park. With an area of only 3,700 square meters (0.91 acre), Huoshan Park was built for foreign children and later became the backyard of the Jewish community for rest and recreation. Nowadays, you can still see the former Jewish refugee shelters inside.
Shanghai Children’s Museum

In the afternoon, we will continue our Shanghai Jewish Tour to the Shanghai Children's Palace. The main building was used to be a villa built by a British Jewish businessman.
Hengshan Leisure Street
1h · Admission ticket included
After that, we will have a chance to appreciate the gorgeous Hengshan Moller Villa built by a British Jewish businessman in 1936. With Norse style, it is very unique in Shanghai city. When you are there, you could almost feel the presence of history in every part of the building.
