Why is Shanghai called the "Magic City"

I have never understood why Shanghai is called the "Magic City". After I read the information, I finally understood why. After I went to Shanghai, I understood even more why Shanghai is called the Magic City. I think Shanghai is one of the most magical cities. This city has more charm because of its time and history.

According to the information I found, Magic City was one of the nicknames of Shanghai in the 1920s and 1930s. It was a customary name for Shanghai by the Japanese at that time.

The best-selling novel "Magic City" by Muramatsu Saofu, a Japanese writer who lived in Shanghai in the early 20th century, was the first time that Shanghai was called "Magic City". Later, the term "Magic City" was used by many people to describe the confusing world of Shanghai.

Shanghai is one of China’s international cities and one of the world’s port cities. Shanghai plays an important role in the global economy. However, the history of Shanghai is not so peaceful. As far as I know, there is also a explanation for the origin of the title "Magic City".

In the 1920s and 1930s, Shanghai was one of the most prosperous places in the world, but it was also a place full of violence and crime. At that time, Shanghai Tang was one of the gambling centers in the world and also a center of illegal drug trafficking. During this period, Shanghai was regarded as a place full of crime and chaos, and was called the "Magic City".

In my opinion, Shanghai is called the "Magic City" because it was a place full of sin and danger in history, and also because of its mysterious and supernatural legends, as well as its advanced technology. Construction technology and design concepts. Although Shanghai has become very modern and prosperous now, this title is still remembered by people.

Shanghai is one of China’s representative cities and a city full of vitality and opportunities. However, Shanghai also has its own problems and challenges. Shanghai is called the "Magic City", which is not only an evaluation of Shanghai's history and culture, but also a reflection of Shanghai's current social reality. We should see the advantages and disadvantages of Shanghai and contribute our own strength to the development and progress of Shanghai.
