P1 and P2 parking lots require queuing for the shuttle bus, which takes a long time and can make children impatient. 2️⃣ Drive into the park version (highly recommended) Free direct access inside the park, no parking or shuttle fees. ✅ Specific route: Navigate to Qingxi Country Park main gate on Zilian Road. When staff direct you to P5 parking lot, keep driving forward. ⭐ Enter Lianxie Road (village access road) → go straight along the road after entering the village. After seeing farmland, drive to the end (there are roadside vendors) → free roadside parking. A 1 km walk leads to the entrance of the water forest, along the way you can show the kids the rural scenery. ✅ The village has many farmhouses with fresh dishes, suitable for family meals. You can ask villagers for recommendations in advance for more authentic flavors. 🏡 Accommodation guide: Recommended "Shanghai Zhujiajiao Anlu Hotel," a 30-minute drive from the scenic area, with a wild luxury style and complete family facilities.
