At the intersection of two streets and alleys, a red brick building shaped like a sailboat stands gracefully. On Gulangyu Island, where Western-style buildings stand tall and streets and alleys are intricately intertwined, this place is known as the "most beautiful corner" because of its outstanding artistic and cultural atmosphere.

In the mid-19th century, some Westerners traveled across the ocean to Gulangyu Island and built the first church on the top of Lujiao (also known as Shanglujiao). In 1863, this neoclassical church was completed and was then called the "International Church," which is the present-day Union Church.
