Bye-bye: Due to urban construction, we said good-bye to some popular venues in 2021, including Fuchun Xiaolong, a traditional dumpling shop on Yuyuan Road, and a second-hand bookstore near Fudan University. The century-old Jiangyin Street attracts many people to take photos when its empty houses were transformed into a film set by the crew of an upcoming spy thriller.

Flowers: Flowers have brought beauty, love and warmth to our life.
