More than 20 students from Shanghai Minli Middle School, Jing'an Experimental Middle School and the International Division of East China Normal University's No. 2 High School conducted a historical tour along Suzhou Creek to learn about local history and culture.
With architect Ding Guangji leading the way, they visited the Sihang Warehouse Battle Memorial, Zhejiang Road Bridge, Tianhou Palace and other historical sites.
"As I went down the river, I could hear stories about the structures. Actually, I've been here many times, but I had no idea the area had such a rich history," said Wang Xinyi, a senior at the Minli school.
Based on their knowledge of the subject, these students created a series of works, such as movies and cultural items, which will be displayed to the public at the end of the year. (Source: Shanghai Daily)
