The image exhibition "Impression of West Street" kicked off at Jiading Culture Cloud in Jiading district on Dec 22.
The exhibition showcases 117 works including videos, old photos, and recent photos that show all aspects of the cultural environment and historical features of West Street from the end of the Qing Dynasty (1644-1911) until now.
According to the exhibition's organizers, Jiading district will implement protection measures on West Street during the 14th Five-Year Plan (2021-25) period by integrating more modern urban functions while keeping the regional characteristics and historical features.
