苏州河华政段滨水景观崭新亮相 - 2021年07月01日

A newly renovated section of the Suzhou Creek waterfront opened to the public on Wednesday, allowing visitors to closely see some over century-old East-meets-West buildings of the prestigious St John's University.

The 900-meter-long riverside area at the East China University of Political Science and Law in Changning District is dubbed the "Pearl of Suzhou Creek" due to its beautiful landscape and unique historical ambiance.

A continuous path opened in 2019 after the university divided part of its campus along the creek as public space. The district's transport and construction authorities later launched a renovation project along with the university to further improve the riverside environment.
