The historic Middle Huaihai Road in Shanghai is comparable to New York's Fifth Avenue. Hidden within an obscure ally on Middle Huaihai Road is the Zhongshan Guesthouse that Dr. Sun Yat-sen stayed in. He stayed here on 25 December 1911, just before he left for Nanking to become the first President of China, where he set up a Provisional Government and met with dignitaries and journalists from all walks of life.In the process of constructing a naturally harmonious landscape space, W & B Design also pay tribute to the ancient past of China, as the pulse of weathered history still beats.
