EDITORS COMMENTS
This photograph, taken circa 1906, showcases the serene Public Gardens on The Bund in central Shanghai, China. The Bund is a renowned waterfront area located along the western bank of the Huangpu River, in the Huangpu District. At this time, The Bund was part of the former Shanghai International Settlement, an enclave governed by various Western powers. The image presents a picturesque scene of the gardens, with their lush greenery, winding paths, and tranquil ponds. In the foreground, a bandstand stands proudly, inviting visitors to enjoy live music and performances. The gardens offer a respite from the bustling city life and the nearby commercial districts. The Huangpu River, visible in the background, is a significant body of water that has played a crucial role in Shanghai's history as a major international trading port. Ships and boats can be seen anchored along the riverbank, adding to the vibrant atmosphere of the area. The Public Gardens on The Bund have been a cherished part of Shanghai's landscape for over a century, providing a peaceful retreat for locals and tourists alike. This photograph offers a glimpse into the rich history and cultural heritage of China's most dynamic city.
