These short videos have been viewed more than 1.6 million times.
Via online voting, the first batch of 30 landmarks along the creek were selected, covering areas such as entertainment and shopping, the Putuo District Bureau of Culture and Tourism announced.
M50 Art Park, Changfeng Ocean World, Shanghai Global Harbor, Mengqing Garden Environmental Protection Park, Shanghai Textile Museum and the X-Tower Innovation Park are some of the landmarks on the list.
"I wasn't aware there are so many fun places so close by," said a resident surnamed Yu who has lived in Putuo for more than 30 years.
Following the routes, she visited spots such as the X-Tower Innovation Park and Suning Art Museum with her family.
