About Hongkou District
Hongkou is a quiet suburb and home to the Shanghai Jewish Refugees Museum, a former synagogue with displays on the area's history as a Jewish WWII refuge and ghetto. The 1846-built Astor House Hotel has a cocktail bar that's popular with tourists, while nearby Waibaidu Bridge, linking Hongkou to the Bund, draws visitors at night with its colorful lights. Lu Xun Park contains the tomb of the famous writer and poet.
