Thames Town is the English
name for a new town in Songjiang, about 30 km from central Shanghai,
China and situated on the Yangtze River. It is named after the River
Thames in England, the United Kingdom. The architecture both imitates
and is influenced by classic English market town styles. There are
cobbled streets, Victorian terraces, corner shops - empty as in an
abandoned film set. Some of the architecture has been directly copied
from buildings found in England, including the church (copied from one
in Clifton, Bristol) and a pub and fish and chip shop (copied from
buildings in Lyme Regis, Dorset). The picturesque church and main square
makes an idyllic backdrop for many Chinese Wedding photos. -- Wikipedia
