A tranquil retreat amidst the hustle and bustle of the city

In Shanghai, there is a place where you can experience tranquility and a sense of distance, the ancient and elegant Jiangnan garden—Yuyuan Garden. The winding rivers, exquisite stone bridges, verdant willow trees, and the beautiful garden architecture reflect each other, intoxicating visitors. The architectural styles of the Hui School, Jin School, Ming, and Qing dynasties, with their pavilions, terraces, white walls and black tiles, and exquisite carvings, exude a strong Jiangnan charm from every angle. Being there is like traveling back to the water towns of Jiangnan a thousand years ago. Strolling through Yuyuan Garden, the first thing that catches your eye is the emerald bamboo and curved bridges by the lake. Walking along the lake, you can enjoy a variety of flowers and trees, as if you are in a paradise. Among them, the most eye-catching are the pavilions and towers of Yuyuan Garden, which are either simple and elegant or exquisitely delicate, each emitting a strong cultural atmosphere. Unwittingly, one is attracted by the timeless beauty, and there are even designs like small buildings on a boat, which are astonishing and admirable. Hidden among the dense green trees are surprises that make people linger. 🚉Transportation Strategy: Take Shanghai Metro Line 11, get off at Nanxiang Station Exit 2, and transfer to Bus 119
