🌵【Shanghai's new landmark! Asia's largest greenhouse garden, the "Shanghai Greenhouse Garden," is now open! See the desert rainforest in one go, and take photos that look like sci-fi blockbusters!】🌵

This treasure garden is truly photogenic! Hurry and get in before everyone knows about it! 🔥 Want to experience a magical journey to a tropical rainforest or desert canyon in Shanghai? The Shanghai Greenhouse Garden in Pudong Expo Cultural Park is the perfect place for you! This largest glass greenhouse in Asia, spanning approximately 22,000 square meters, sits against the backdrop of Twin Mountains and adjacent to the central lake. Comprising three themed pavilions, it offers a wide range of activities, including plant viewing, ecological experiences, and educational activities. Officially opening on September 20, 2024, it's definitely Shanghai's newest Instagram-worthy destination! 🌟Recommended Highlights: 1️⃣ Three themed pavilions, showcasing global wonders in one place: ✅ Sea City Sandbar (Hall 1): Simulating a tropical arid environment, you'll see drought-tolerant plants like saguaro cacti and baobab trees. The sand dunes and multimedia light and shadow effects create a magical desert experience. ✅ Cloud Forest (Hall 2): ​​Recreates a tropical rainforest ecosystem, featuring large buttress trees, hanging gardens, waterfalls and streams, and even the wonder of "breathing roots"—a truly immersive experience. ✅ Cloud Canyon (Hall 3): The largest of the three halls, this tropical flower-themed venue features hanging gardens, a palm-flower stream, and other landscapes. It also features a 12-meter-long, 4-meter-deep submerged fish tank (filled with 300 tons of water), a miniature oceanarium—a unique experience not found in other botanical gardens in Shanghai. 2️⃣ A Perfect Combination of Technology and Ecology: Renovated from the former Shanghai No. 3 Steel Plant, the greenhouse retains its industrial heritage while utilizing green technologies like single-glazed glass for increased light transmittance, rooftop natural ventilation, and a photovoltaic panel-powered swimming pool to create a zero-energy building. The museum also incorporates multimedia, art installations, and a circular projection screen, adding a sci-fi feel to the nighttime experience. 3️⃣ Rare Plant Spots: This area boasts a collection of globally renowned plants, including China's largest baobab tree, an 800-year-old olive tree, the "living fossil" Welwitschia orchid, and even the highly venomous anthra-strychnine tree—plant lovers rejoice! 4️⃣ Abundant Activities in the Surrounding Area: The Expo Cultural Park, where the greenhouse gardens are located, offers numerous attractions: From the Twin Mountains, you can enjoy panoramic views of the city; the World Flower Garden, where seasonal flowers bloom; the Red Stone Center (formerly the Russian Pavilion), a converted World Expo venue; art exhibitions (formerly the French and Italian Pavilions); and numerous unique restaurants and cultural and creative shops. 📍Address: 199 Jiming Road, Pudong New Area (within the Expo Culture Park) 🕒Opening Hours: 9:00 AM - 9:00 PM (last admission at 8:30 PM) 🎫Tickets: Tickets are required for admission (early bird tickets were previously available for 59 yuan per person; please refer to the latest official price). 🚗Transportation: We recommend navigating to "Shanghai World Expo Culture Park." The park's green areas are open 24 hours, but separate tickets or reservations are required for areas like the greenhouse garden and Twin Hills. 👉Tips: · The greenhouse is large, so we recommend wearing comfortable shoes and allowing at least 2-3 hours for your visit. · The environment inside the pavilion simulates a real ecological environment; some areas (such as the Rainforest Pavilion) may be hot and humid, so please dress accordingly. · Stay tuned for official updates; night tours and science education programs may be available in the future. #ShanghaiGreenhouseGarden #WorldExpoCulturePark #ShanghaiNewLandmark #MagicCityCheck-In #FamilyTravel #BestDestinationsSeptember2025

Shanghai is for the city lovers and the foodies! Very cool contrasts, ancient lanes and futuristic skylines! 🌆🕌 For fellow foodies and street explorers, Shanghai totally delivers with bustling markets, cozy temples, and modern garden beauty. Shanghai is a paradise for city and food lovers. Walk around the city’s vibrant street markets to snag local snacks like xiaolongbao (soup dumplings) and tanghulu (candied hawthorne), or dive into the serenity of nearby temples and leafy gardens. Getting Around: A reloadable metro card is your friend — Shanghai’s metro is crazy efficient, air-conditioned, and covers most attractions. Hopping on a shared bike for short trips is a fun and cheap way to explore. Final tip: Always bring your phone for street eats, most places accept Alipay/WeChat Pay. #ShanghaiGarden #CityExplorer #ChinaTravel #FoodieFinds #TripToRemember
