i visited 1933 shanghai in china. the architectural details of the place was mesmerizing. it was originally built in 1930's as a slaughter house, designed by british architect. now it serves as a space for creative community. many refer the space to escher's abstract drawings (shown below) . if you ever visit shanghai china, this is the place you don't want to miss!
