Jing'an Temple, with its unmissable gold-plated pagoda, rises above one of central Shanghai’s busiest roads. It is the Jing’an district’s most striking landmark, and is situated on the oldest historical site in the bustling, modern city.
In fact, the temple predates even the city itself. It was constructed in 247 AD, more than 1,000 years before the official birth of Shanghai in 1292.
