Red leaf season in Shanghai|Minhang Red Garden, I say winter is better than spring

Finally, I came to see Minhang Red Garden, which was planted by netizens! Although the garden is not big, it has red leaves comparable to Fengxian's "Guhua Garden" and Jiading's "Qiuxia Garden". There were not many people on the weekend morning, so I took the photo for more than an hour and came back satisfied (I looked up, I couldn’t lift the huge Panasonic order). - [RedHeart][Uncle said this year’s leaves are not as good as last year’s leaves] I met an uncle who was taking pictures of red leaves, so we started chatting... However, my hearing in Shanghainese is really weak, and I could only understand part of it. My uncle said that he is 75 years old and comes here every year to take pictures of red leaves. He is getting too old and can no longer hold a camera. The two cameras at home are gathering dust, so he uses his mobile phone to take pictures and post them on Moments. - The red leaves this year are not as good as in previous years, and some have withered before they turn red. The good thing is that the maple trees in Hongyuan are relatively scattered, so everyone doesn’t have to crowd together to take pictures. The maple leaves near two pavilions and an arch bridge are brilliantly red, and the sunlight shining on them is particularly enchanting. There are also several deciduous cypress trees, and now is a good time to see them. - [RedHeart]【Transportation】 Subway: Get off at Jiangchuan Road on Line 5 and walk for more than 10 minutes. Driving: Navigate to the parking lot of Shanghai Shangying Building Surrounding areas: Hanxiang Water Expo|Jin’s Ancestral Hall Site|Guteng Garden|Daling Bay Library|Huayi Wanchuang·Xinsuo|Maqiao Ancient Cultural Site

Chongming Planning Exhibition Hall

Shanghai adventure alert 🚀🌱! On my latest trip, I wandered off the city's usual tourist trail and found myself at the Chongming Planning Exhibition Hall. This spot blends stylish modern architecture with a peek into local development and boasts pretty gorgeous scenery if you need an escape from Shanghai’s skyscrapers. Must-See: Chongming Planning Exhibition Hall 📍 Address: No. 7918, Chongming Avenue, Chongming District, Shanghai Opening Hours: Typically 9:00-17:00 (double-check before you go!) The hall itself is super photogenic—think intricate display models, decorative patterns, and creative lighting. Bird lovers, keep your eyes open for the themed outdoor spaces featuring local wildlife! While inside, don’t miss a close-up look at the detailed exhibition features, each telling a story about Chongming’s growth and cultural vision. Top Tip: The overall vibe here is peaceful, and the scenery outside the hall is well worth a slow stroll (perfect for an outdoor moment or snapping those IG-worthy pics). Spend a bit of time soaking it all in, then grab coffee at a nearby café for a real local break. Getting There: Public transport via Metro Line 1 then local bus is budget-friendly but takes some time; taxis or ride-hailing from central Shanghai are faster if you’re feeling impatient. Refreshments: Pack some snacks or grab a bite at local eateries on Chongming Avenue—simple but tasty Chinese fare is everywhere, so don’t miss out! Extra Hack: No visa stress if you’re already in China. The weather is best March–May or Sept–Nov, so plan your visit for comfortable wanderings. #ShanghaiExplore #ChongmingDaytrip #ChineseArchitecture #HiddenGems #tripdotcom
