The resolution is relatively low because of the upload maximization (but hopefully this brings the vibe of nostalgia :D)
Process:
The theme that I gave up: 申园 (compare the pseudo-classic architecture with real ancient classic paintings: e.g. the left half of the image is the building itself, but on the right, the building is replaced with a landscape painting which depicts the same scene.)
The theme I finally chose: The Bund, “World Architecture Expo” specifically. There are many existing videos that may possibly be useful, and also as the scene is a long street with grand architectures, drone footage might be the best way to see the full picture and then zoom in to see the details.

Do a more detailed research about the stories of each building.
