Night tour of Jin Hai Lake, a stroll through the light and shadow interwoven "Fish of Shanghai"

✅ As dusk falls, we walk through Xiuzhu Road into this watery dreamland. First, we arrive at "Bridge No. 4," where the steel structure outlines simple yet powerful lines in the night. Standing in the middle of the bridge, the night breeze brushes our faces, the shimmering waves of Jin Hai Lake ripple beneath our feet, and the distant city lights sparkle like stars. ☀️ After crossing the bridge, we head northeast along the waterfront promenade. The landscape light strips on both sides of the path lead visitors into a world of light and shadow art. Along the way, we pass several sculptures whose abstract shapes reflect interestingly on the lake’s surface. Continuing forward, the exterior wall of the "By the Water" sci-fi pavilion shifts with light and shadow, adding a touch of sci-fi to the night tour. ☀️☀️ More than halfway through the journey, the Fengxian Museum complex appears in the night. The buildings, composed of three oval-shaped units, are outlined by lights and reflected on the calm lake surface, creating a moving picture. Adjacent to it, the Urban Planning Exhibition Hall showcases the minimalist beauty of modern architecture with clean geometric lines and transparent glass curtain walls. Both cultural buildings emit an intellectual glow even at night. ☀️☀️☀️ After nearly 30 minutes of walking, when the iconic "Fish of Shanghai" sculpture comes into view, the entire night tour reaches its climax. This giant sculpture, dressed in soft lighting, looks magnificently grand and dazzlingly charming, attracting many visitors to stop and take photos. 💯 This 30-plus-minute, over 2200-meter night walk is a sensory feast blending nature, art, and architecture. The night at Jin Hai Lake sheds the daytime hustle and reveals another side of the charm of the "Fish of Shanghai."
