The most romantic love scenery in Shanghai--Reading and appreciation of heart-warming sentences from the "Love Message Board" on Tianai Road in Shanghai

1. Sweet Love Road, the only road in Shanghai called love

If someone asks you which road in Shanghai is the most romantic, there is no doubt that you can boldly answer it is Tianai Road located in Hongkou District, Shanghai.

Tianai Road in Hongkou District, Shanghai is known as the "most romantic" road in Shanghai. There is a special love mailbox (love mailbox) at the intersection. Every letter dropped from this love mailbox will be stamped with an English love postmark, allowing the recipient to feel a love and romance through this postmark., kept for a permanent memorial and collection. The postboxes, postmarks, and the "love wall" composed of 28 famous Chinese and foreign love poems on both sides of the road give this romantic road a new sweetness, and its unique silence and soothing atmosphere are soaked in it. This place is known as "Shanghai's most romantic road". Unlike Shanyin Road, there are many walls on both sides of Tianai Road, which block the line of sight, which adds a bit of mystery. It is a good place for lovers to hug and kiss sweetly.

2. The former graffiti wall has now disappeared

The following graffiti works were taken on February 8, 2016. They were left by me when I went to check in when the graffiti wall on the north side of Tianai Road was just born.

Two years later, some discordant pictures appeared on nearly 10 graffiti works on Tian 'ai Road. In addition, the walls fell off and aged. The graffiti paintings were deliberately tampered with. After being blown by wind and rain, the colors of the pictures on the walls were distorted and the paint peeled off. The style of the past has gradually been lost. In addition, many graffiti has been covered by other graffiti, and several more graffiti created and designed by non-soliciting artists have emerged. Although these graffiti are also colorful and unique, they are obviously deviated from the theme of "love". Some people even paint patterns that have nothing to do with the theme on the paintings drawn by artists, some cover their own names on the patterns, and even, paint the logo of their own company... Therefore, relevant departments have no choice but to follow the "Advertising Law" and the regulations on the management of outdoor advertising that commercial advertisements are not allowed to appear on the graffiti wall. The above-mentioned commercial advertisements are definitely not allowed to be interspersed in graffiti works.

In 2018, in order to maintain the beautiful image of Tian 'ai Road in the eyes of citizens, combined with the opinions of surrounding residents, with the support of the Hongkou District Culture Bureau and the Hongkou District Greening and City Appearance Bureau, Sichuan North Road Street carried out overall cleaning and re-planning of the graffiti wall on Tian' ai Road.

3. Today's "Love Message Board" is more worth appreciating

On January 21, 2020, I came to Tianai Road again. This travel record what I saw and heard when I walked on Tianai Road again.

Tian 'ai Road starts from Sichuan North Road in the south and ends at Lane 315, Tian' ai Road in the north. It is 526 meters long, 13.0 meters wide, and the carriageway is 7.0 meters wide.

There is a legend among the older generation that if people in love walk this road hand in hand, love will last for a long time. It is said that there was once a rich man's family here. The rich man's family had a daughter named Tian Ai. She was knowledgeable and intelligent since she was a child. When she grew up, she was both talented and handsome, and she was a household name. There was a young man named Xiangde who was a cow herding in the Tian house. He was smart and capable. He and Tian Ai had been together since childhood, and sometimes they even accompanied Miss to study together. They had no doubts about their childhood and became in love with each other over time. Finally, they became a good love story. From then on, Shanghai has had two quiet paths, Tian Ai and Xiangde, where they lived together. Just as the cowherd and the Weaver Girl created the myth of the Qixi Festival, Tian Ai and Xiangde also have their own touching and sweet love.
