Let's start with Harbin. This place is sacred to many young people. In the many years after Russia's transition to the Soviet Union, the works left by Russian great architects are basically the most cultural and exotic buildings that can be seen on the streets of Harbin now, including many religious buildings, and onion churches are more common. This is completely different from our early building types in China, because we like to expand horizontally and pay attention to ostentation and extravagance in China. The house is not measured by height, but by area. All European buildings are trying their best to develop vertically. Since the Middle Ages, there has been such a concept, which is a very complicated difference between the two peoples. The greater the contrast, the more curious people will be, so there will be so many reverie and speculation about European architecture, castles and so on in our country's novels. It can be said that European architecture has inspired many people.
If you like Russian culture and want to know more about Russian history, culture, art and humanities, you can look at Mr. Gao's remarks. Believe me, his insights and information will definitely make you feel like a treasure.
Let's talk about Shanghai. I believe I don't need to introduce this place. The disgraceful history has left pain and many splendid civilizations. Shanghai is the most representative city. Due to its unique geographical conditions, Britain, France, Spain, Germany, Japan and other countries have successively established concessions here. What they left behind was the architectural and cultural atmosphere. After merging with our China culture, many interesting new things have emerged, so Shanghai brings you not only freshness, but also vicissitudes and your own unique ideas. Compared with Harbin, such a complex cultural blend is more desirable.
