Old Movie Cafe at Duolun Street

Went to the Duolun Cultural Street for a short trip today. Had a quick laugh over a philosopher that lived around the area called Mao Dun - Or Contradiction in Chinese

Duolun was marketed as a cultural street as Lu Xun used to be a resident on the street. Now it has plenty of little stalls, antique and jewelery shops, a blend of the old, new and the tacky.


After shopping for a bit, we found a charming cafe called the Old Film Cafe.



Inside, we had a true globalism moment as we sat down there. Two Singaporeans chatting in English, were watching a old Bollywood movie with Chinese voice-overs in Shanghai.
