Beautiful park with plenty of walking trails. There was a farmers market esque set up there when I visited on random autumn weekday morning. Not sure if it’s a regular thing. Good price hairy crabs lol. Super lively!

Beautiful, large park with a lake where families spend their time and the elderly dance and relax. Chill vibe.

Beautiful park. So much to see here, I can't begin to explain. Just go there and wander around the whole thing. We also saw more than 20 different cats running around :D

This park is beautiful. Especially the woodland, forrest areas. In a busy city you can walk in peaceful forrest with the sounds of bird song. As tourists to Shanghai the park is lovely to watch locals interacting with each other. There was even a small traditional music group practice session. So good I felt like l was at concert. A real gem this park that really looks after the locals that use it.
