Parks und Gärten in Shanghai

Parks & Gardens of Shanghai

Shanghai’s green spaces range from the 16th-century classical Ming Dynasty design of Guyi Garden to the colonial-influenced French layout of Fuxing Park. The collection includes Huangpu Park, the city's oldest public park on the Bund, and the extensive Shanghai Botanical Gardens. Cultural and historical landmarks are integrated into these landscapes, such as the 5,000-year-old archaeological site at Guangfulin Relics Park and the commemorative grounds of Longhua Martyrs Cemetery, offering a blend of traditional architecture, European design, and ancient heritage.
