Historic building a hotspot

The fairytale-like Moller Villa Hotel on Shaanxi Road S. has been chosen as one of the 20 most popular historic buildings in Shanghai, according to the Shanghai Culture and Tourism Bureau.

Completed in 1936, the Scandi-
navian-style hotel is like a castle straight out of a Hans Christian Andersen fairytale.

Replete with multicolored Gothic and Tudor steeples, gables and spires, Moller Villa was a gift from British businessman Eric Moller to his daughter.
