China: Shanghai - Trams and pedestrians on Nanjing Lu (Nanjing Road) c. 1935. Nanjing Road is the main shopping street of Shanghai, China, and is one of the world's busiest shopping streets. Today's Nanjing Road comprises two sections, Nanjing Road East and Nanjing Road West. In some contexts, 'Nanjing Road' refers only to the pre-1945 Nanjing Road (pictured), today's Nanjing Road East, which is now largely pedestrianised. Prior to 1949, the road's English name was rendered Nanking Road, using the standard romanisation of the time.

Vietnam: A rickshaw and an electric tram pass Hoa Phong Tower, near Hoan Kiem Lake in Hanoi (early 20th century). Hoa Phong Tower is the last remaining relic of Bao An pagoda, which was a famous Buddhist site in the 19th century in Hanoi. The pagoda was built in 1846 with four dates in the style of an Indian stupa under the command of Nguyen Dang Giai. The pagoda was destroyed in 1898 to broaden the street and only the tower was left standing. Today the tower stands opposite the main post office on the bank of Hoan Kiem Lake.
