The thousand-year-old ginkgo tree No. 0001 in Shanghai is full of golden yellow

Shanghai Millennium Ginkgo Tree No. 0001 is located in Jiading Ancient Tree Park. It is more than 1,200 years old and is the oldest ancient tree in Shanghai, worthy of the title "King of Trees in Shanghai". Last year, I saw the leaves of a small ginkgo tree in a park near my home had turned yellow, so I went to check it out. However, this ancient tree that has experienced thousands of years of wind and rain seems to be more frost-resistant, and its leaves are just beginning to turn slightly yellow. This year, I waited until the small ginkgo trees in the park near my home had shed their leaves before going there. The thousand-year-old ginkgo tree was indeed full of golden color, transparent and clear, as if a weathered figure was calmly and unhurriedly welcoming the coming cold. Standing under the old tree, I couldn't help but think about how many generations this old tree has experienced, how many joys and sorrows it has witnessed, what kind of life the children who grew up with it had, and where they went later. I sighed that life is just a tiny speck of dust in the long years, and how insignificant the trivialities and right and wrong in life seem at this moment. 🕙Business hours: Open all day, free admission 📍Detailed address: It is recommended to drive by yourself and navigate directly to Jiading Ancient Tree Park. There is a parking lot in the park
