I was unlucky the day I went there, the chair was broken, which was a bit disappointing. You can look at the picture (see P3) to feel its charm. Imagine the sun shining on the roof of a small villa, surrounded by green plants. You sit on a chair and take a casual shot to create a blockbuster photo full of atmosphere. ### 2️⃣Children's Park This is a paradise for children and perfect for taking the kids out for a walk. There are various amusement projects such as the Road of the Brave and roller coasters. Here children can release their endless energy, challenge themselves and enjoy a happy time. Watching their children laughing and playing on the amusement facilities, parents can also feel the pure happiness. ### 3️⃣Camphor Square There are many beautiful potted plants on display in the square, each of which looks like a carefully crafted work of art. These potted plants have various shapes, some have lush branches and leaves, some have gorgeous flowers. They are neatly arranged in the square, as if showing the magic of nature and the exquisite skills of gardeners to tourists. Walking in the camphor square and admiring these potted plants makes one feel particularly relaxed. ### 4️⃣ Monet’s Garden This is the most popular check-in spot in Gongqing Forest Park. 📸, once you walk into here, it feels like you have walked into a beautiful oil painting. Colorful flowers are blooming one after another, and when the breeze blows, the flowers sway gently, as if dancing. Taking photos here, any shot can create a poetic and picturesque feeling, making you feel as if you are in a dream world. ### 5️⃣Chrysanthemum Exhibition The chrysanthemum exhibition will be on display from 2024.10.26 to 2024.11.26, and the layout area is very large. As soon as you enter the chrysanthemum exhibition area, you will be shocked by the gorgeous chrysanthemums in front of you. Chrysanthemums of various colors and varieties compete for beauty. Some look like hydrangeas, some look like waterfalls, and some look like fireworks. Many people come from far away just to see the beauty of these chrysanthemums. ### 6️⃣ Forest Train Taking the forest train is also a very good experience. It costs 20 yuan per person and takes about 10 minutes to go around. Sitting on the train, slowly traveling through the forest, you can enjoy the scenery along the way and feel the tranquility and beauty of nature. The clang-clang sound of the train is like a beautiful piece of music, allowing you to relax during the journey. ### 7️⃣Qiu Lin Ai Wan You can go boating at Qiulin Aiwan, and there are hand-rowed boats and electric boats to choose from. If you like to control your own pace and enjoy the fun of rowing, then a hand rowing boat is a good choice; if you want to take it easy, you can choose an electric boat. Sitting on the boat, drifting on the lake, looking at the surrounding scenery and feeling the breeze on your face, it is so relaxing. ### 8️⃣ Wind and Rain Bridge It's relatively quiet here, not crowded, and there are many empty chairs. Sitting in a chair and quietly appreciating the surrounding scenery is really very enjoyable. The architectural style of Fengyu Bridge is unique, which complements the surrounding natural scenery. You can also take beautiful photos here. 📸. ## 🎫Ticket status What’s even more surprising is that this park is free to enter. 🆓, so that everyone can enjoy themselves without any burden. ## 🚗Transportation】 Address: No. 2000, Jungong Road, Yangpu District, Shanghai ### 🅿️Self-driving If you choose to drive, you can park at the East Gate, West Gate, and South Gate. However, I suggest stopping at the East Gate because it is closest to several popular attractions. This can save a lot of time and energy, allowing you to have more energy to enjoy the beautiful scenery of the park. ### 🚇Subway It is also very convenient to take the subway. You can get off at Shiguang Road Station on Line 8 and then take Bus No. 147 to reach the west gate of the park. There are also bus routes 147, 102 and 124 at the entrance of the park, so no matter which direction you come from, you can easily find the right means of transportation. How about it?
