Luwan District is one of Shanghai's traditional central areas, especially its northern area was originally a French concession, and its infrastructure is more standardized than other areas. French phoenix trees are often planted on both sides of the road, and the shade can cover the whole road in summer. Huaihai Road and Xintiandi are the most important commercial areas in this region, and the land price can reach 60,000 ~ 80,000 /m2.

Luwan District is a "pocket area" with a registered population of only about 270,000, and the land area is only slightly higher than that of Jing 'an District, so the slogan put forward is to build a boutique city. At present, Luwan District is also one of the highest-end districts in Shanghai.
