Xuhui District is a core urban district of Shanghai . It has a land area of 54.76 km 2 (21.14 sq mi) and a population of 982,200 as of 2008. [1]
The Xuhui District is named after its namesake, the historic area of Xujiahui . Xujiahui was historically land owned by Ming dynasty bureaucrat and scientist Xu Guangqi , and later donated to the Roman Catholic Church . It and Luwan District jointly formed the core of Catholic Shanghai, centered in the former French Concession of Shanghai . Vestiges of the French influence can still be seen in the St. Ignatius Cathedral of Shanghai , Xuhui College , the Xujiahui Observatory, and some remaining boulevards and French-style districts.
Parts of today's Xuhui District were once the premier residential districts of Shanghai. The former french neighborhoods in parts of Xuhui today constitute some of the city´s most popular café areas, [2] including places such as pedestrian Tianzifang . After the revolution, however, the large estates near Xujiahui were turned into factories. [ citation needed ] In the 1990s, the Shanghai municipal government developed the district as a commercial zone. [ citation needed ] A once-prominent commercial area in the district was the Xiangyang Crafts and Gifts Market, a haven for souvenirs and intellectual property -infringing products; it was closed on June 30, 2006 by municipal authorities.
Xujiahui itself has been redeveloped as a financial center , with a proliferation of large-scale shopping centers and department stores, and is now a major shopping destination in the city with shopping malls such as Grand Gateway Shanghai and Pacific Sogo .
The educational tradition begun by Jesuits in Xuhui continues with Shanghai Jiao Tong University , the premier university in China. The district also has some of the best secondary schools in the municipality, such as South West Weiyu Middle School , Shanghai High School and Nanyang Model High School .
A number of former residences of prominent personalities remain, including Soong Ching-ling and Sun Yat-sen 's former residence. Yao Ming of Houston Rockets was a resident of the district. Luo "Ferrari 430" Feichi lives in Xuhui. [3]
Xuhui District has 12 subdistricts and two townships.
