Lonely Planet review for St Nicholas Church

This now-derelict Russian Orthodox church was built to service the huge influx of Russians who arrived in Shanghai in the 1930s. It was spared destruction during the Cultural Revolution by a portrait of Mao Zedong, hung strategically from its dome. It was not open to the public at press time.
