Geography

Xujing borders two districts of Shanghai: Minhang and Songjiang. It is considered one of the first new city developments of Shanghai, being the most important "eastern wing" of Qingpu district.[3]

History

The administrative division of Xujing was formed in July 1957, first as a township. In October 1958, the title of township was abolished and Xujing was made into a people's commune.[4]

In April 1984, the title of Xujing was reverted to township.[4]

In December 1993, the Shanghai Municipal People's Congress approved changing the status of Xujing to being a town.[4]

In 2015, the Shanghai National Exhibition and Convention Center opened in Xujing and consists of four exhibition halls, the NECC Plaza, office buildings and a hotel. Since then, it has hosted various events including concerts and expos.[5]

Panlong Town

Panlong'an (Chinese: 蟠龙庵; pinyin: pánlóng'ān) is an ancient water town within Xujing dating back to the Sui Dynasty. In 2001, it was made a historical protected zone in Shanghai.[6]

As part of the Yangtze River Delta integration initiative, Panlong Tiandi (Chinese: 蟠龙天地), a commercial complex offering many shopping facilities and activities, was opened in April 2023, bringing in around 200,000 tourists over the five-day-long Labour Day break.[7]

Transportation

Xujing has access to Line 17 and Line 2 of the Shanghai Metro system. The G15 Shenyang–Haikou Expressway, G50 Shanghai–Chongqing Expressway pass through the town, and China National Highway 318 starts in the town.[3]

The town is also close to the Shanghai Hongqiao International Airport.
