The white house at 150 Fenyang Road belonged to Bai Chongxi, celebrated Kuomintang Captain.
The first owner of the house in the style of French Renaissance architecture, completed in 1920, was the French adventurer M. Speelman. In front of the castle-like building extends a long and wide tar-coated road, leading to the woods of camphor and cypress trees. In the center there is a fountain and many lovely fishes in the pool made the surroundings lively.
The building once housed Shanghai Art Academy and Shanghai Shaoxing Opera House in a row after 1949, where now locates a superior barbecue restaurant of the Paulenar restaurant.
