Jing'an District (Template:Zh) is one of the central districts of Shanghai. In 2020, it had 975,707 inhabitants in an area of Template:Cvt.<ref>{{#invoke:citation/CS1|citation |CitationClass=web }}</ref><ref>Template:Cite news</ref><ref name="shanghaidaily.com">Template:Cite news</ref>
The district borders the Hongkou to the east, Huangpu to the east and south, Putuo to the west, Baoshan District to the north and Changning to the west. On 4 November 2015, Zhabei merged with Jing'an District, bringing Shanghai down to 15 districts and one county.<ref>Template:Cite news</ref><ref name="shanghaidaily.com" />
Jing'an District is named after Jing'an Temple, an ancient traditional Chinese Buddhist temple. Today's temple is a new replica of the old one, located in the southern part of the district. An Art Deco "dancehall" is just across the street; the neighborhood is largely residential, but with many bars and restaurants. Jing'an Park, located opposite the temple, is popular among locals; it used to be a graveyard for foreigners in the old Shanghai.Template:Citation needed
Historically, the northern part of the district, what used to be Zhabei, has been highly populated with working class residents. However, due to the shift in the structure of industries and increasing number of immigrants from outside Shanghai, partly due to its reasonable real estate prices (compared to its counterparts such as Putuo and Hongkou), the district has become increasingly appealing to city residents.
Economy and facilitiesEdit
Development in the southern part of the district has been rapid. In three years the stock of Grade A office space in the southern part of the district increased approximately 320 percent, from a total of just 333,000 sqm in 2007 to 1,067,000 sqm in 2010. West Nanjing Road is one of Shanghai's premier shopping districts and is home to five-star hotels and exhibition centers as well as several upscale housing complexes.<ref>Knight Frank China, Knight Frank China, Shanghai Research, Greater China Report 2009</ref> Key landmarks on West Nanjing Road include the Shanghai Exhibition Centre and the Shanghai Centre.
The southern part of the district is one of Shanghai's key central business and commercial districts. It contains numerous large office buildings, hotels, and many shopping venues at the street level. The district comprises a prominent portion of the Shanghai skyline. The district is also known for having many high-rise residential buildings.<ref>{{#invoke:citation/CS1|citation |CitationClass=web }}</ref>
The northern part of the district used to be the place of agglomeration of traditional industries such as flavorings factories and tires factories. In the last decade the municipality decided to move the old industry out to make space for more promising ones, such as the hi-tech and creative industries. It has attracted foreign companies to build offices, apartments and commercial retail outlets over there.
Jing'An District is also where the Shanghai Multimedia Valley (SMV) is located to attract media and IT talent. Major companies located in Zhabei include TÜV Rheinland, Royal Philips Electronics and Shanghai Bell Alcatel Business Systems Co., LTD.<ref name='Zhabei'>{{#invoke:citation/CS1|citation |CitationClass=web }}</ref>
Daning Lingshi Park, the biggest green area in the downtown area, is surrounded<ref name="shzb.gov.cn">{{#invoke:citation/CS1|citation |CitationClass=web }}</ref> by a series of cultural facilities such as the Zhabei Stadium and Shanghai Circus World.
The Shanghai University, Yanchang Campus is also located near the Daning Lingshi Park.
