【正文】 he East and 52 buildings with different 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 location 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. The Bund39。s riverside, levee, green belt and beautiful buildings constitute the street view, which is the most characteristic Shanghai landscape. In the morning, the Bund is a place for people to keep fit。 in the daytime, it is a bustling tourist attraction。 in the evening, it is a place for lovers to fall in love. When the lights start to shine, the buildings on the Bund are resplendent, like crystal palaces, which make tourists at home and abroad marvel. Strolling here, we appreciate the style of Huangpu River, the mother river of Shanghai, overlook the new appearance of Lujiazui area on the other side of Pudong, feel the different flavor of metropolitan gardens among green trees and flower beds, and enjoy the rare fresh air and sunshine in a metropolis. The Bund got its name Huangpu 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 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 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 plete source. Only by finding the source of Taihu Lake can we find the real source of Huangpu River. After investigation and research, Xitiaoxi, located at the foot of Longwang mountain, has a drainage area of 2800 square kilometers with a length of 145 kilometers, billion cubic meters of water. Its water supply accounts for 70% of Taihu Lake39。s water supply, making it the first water source of Taihu Lake. Longwang mountain is the source of Huangpu River. ) 150 years ago, Shanghai was only a mediumsized 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 banks 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 water 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 upstream 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 according 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 monly known as the Li Bai Du bridge (now Zhapu Luqiao) and the three Bai Du bridge (now Sichuan 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. Today39。s southern urban area is named lixiangua Street and waixiangua Street。 Licang bridge and waicang bridge are named after this. The Huangpu River near the 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 called waihuangpu Beach for short. After 1840, Shanghai, as one of the five trading ports, opened to the outside world. In 1845, the British colonialists seized the Bund and established the British concession. In 1849, French colonists also seized the Bund and established the French concession. From then 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. The Ministry of industry of the public concession and the Council of the French Concession are their highest municipal anizations and leading bodies respectively. The concession is like a sovereign area, and the Western powers operate and manage it in their way. With the construction of the concession, the Bund became the earliest and most prosperous place in the concession. In the early days, the Bund was a center of foreign trade, where there were many foreign panies and trade flourished. Since the late 19th century, many foreign and Chinese banks have been established on the Bund, which has bee Shanghai39。s Financial Street and also known as Oriental Wall Street. As a result, the Bund has bee a geomantic treasure land. Owning a piece of land on the Bund is not only a symbol of wealth, but also a symbol of repu
