In the early 1990s, overseas tourists flew over Shanghai on international flights. At night, Shanghai seemed to "turn off the lights", but a "lantern dragon" on the ground was particularly conspicuous. The guest asked the tour guide what a "lantern dragon" was. The tour guide replied, "This is our famous Zhapu Road Food Street in Shanghai." The guest was overjoyed and said, "Go to Zhapu Road when you get off the plane!"

If you walk into Zhapu Road with the idea of inquiry, you must walk twice during the day and at night. Today's Zhapu Road looks more like a small commercial street during the day. In addition to restaurants, there are pharmacies, grocery stores, supermarkets, hair salons, flower shops, fruit shops and clothing stores, which are really "prosperous". In fact, Zhapu Road looks more like a food street at night. The neon store, a beautifully decorated restaurant, stretches out in the air. Until two or three o'clock in the morning, people were still going in and out of these restaurants, including guests who had just eaten supper and shop assistants who had started to buy fresh goods.

★ If you look carefully, you will find two dramatic street scenes on Zhapu Road-

First, there is a "small junk" parked next to the "big warship". The "Big Battleship" is a restaurant mobile phone similar to the dynasty. It is five or six stories high and sells fresh seafood. The "small boat" is a small shop, a small shop. Look at the tricks of the store, they are all "Lanzhou Lamian Noodles", "Northeast jiaozi" and "Guilin Rice Noodles". The dining on Zhapu Road is really rich and frugal.

First, the small clothing store "aims" at the hotel. There is a women's clothing store and a men's clothing store opposite the dynasty. The store owner said that when they opened these two stores, they were "playing the trump card of the dynasty", and the "guest head" who had just finished eating came out drunk and was in a hurry to shop. Although "public money consumption" is less now, his small shop business is still "passable".
