Your tour starts at Astor House Hotel, initially built in 1846 AD. The decoration in the hotel shows you what a top hotel looked like in the 19th century. The first electric lamp in China was lit up in this hotel. Lots of historical celebrities stayed in the hotel, including Albert Einstein, who visited Shanghai and stayed in the hotel in 1922.
