Hengshan Road

Hengshan Road (zh-cp|c=衡山路|p=Hengshan Lu) is a street in the former French Concession of Shanghai. It is one of Shanghai's more vibrant nightlife districts and popular particularly among expats.

History

The street is named after Mount Heng, a sacred mountain in Hunan province. It was established in 1922 as a "leisure street". At that time part of the French Concession, many European-style buildings have been built here in the 1920s and 1930s.

Transportation

The Hengshan Road nightlife district can be reached by taking Shanghai Metro Line 1 to Hengshan Road station
