This was the second time I visited this library. Like the last time, I did not spend the entire day inside the library but probably one day. Located at the Shanghai's Heping Park makes it a good combination for those who want to escape from the hustle and bustle of the city and its noise. People can also enjoy some food and drinks in the dining area available at around RMB 40 each. If you have been here before, let me know how you liked it. #travelinginchina #library #shanghai

I often went to the park when I was a child. I haven't been there for a long time because it was dilapidated and closed after I grew up. It was included in the living circle plan two years ago. It was fully renovated. The park wall was opened. The park has become more friendly. I recently discovered the academy. It was even more surprising. I took my children there for two consecutive weekends. The park environment has improved a lot. The big lawn at the entrance belongs to children and young people. Through the woods. The square by the lake belongs to middle-aged and elderly people. Everyone does not interfere with each other and everyone is in their place. The area near the intersection has also introduced a foot between. It has added a lot of drainage points to the originally poor catering. There are also many open-air seats outside the academy. Have a cup of coffee when the weather is good. It's also nice to enjoy the scenery outside in the wind. I hope there will be more and more spaces like this in Shanghai.

Peace Park, an old park in the east of Shanghai, is located at the junction of Hongkou and Yangpu, and is a beautiful memory for several generations. When I was a child, my parents often took me there to see lions and tigers. I also took my children to the Animal Island to feed goats, watch monkeys, and boat on the lake... Now the park has been upgraded and transformed, the Animal Island is gone, the boating project has been cancelled, and there are more high-end buildings around. On a rainy day, I stepped into the park for the first time after the transformation. Although the surrounding roads were full of cars, the park was unusually quiet. The landscape construction everywhere is very beautiful, the facilities are implanted with ecological concepts, and at the same time, fitness tracks are laid, and the Peace Academy is newly built... If it weren't for the pavilion in the lake and the stone boat still in place, I almost didn't recognize where I was. Encounter the egrets hunting by the lake and the exercisers in the same frame, adding agility to the still space. Turning around and seeing the children's playground, there is a sense of inexplicable joy in my heart. Imagine that when the weather is clear, the children's laughter will sound again... 📍Detailed address: Dalian Road-New Port Road-Tianbao Road 🕙Business hours: open all day ⏳Play time: 1-24hrs 🚉Traffic strategy: Metro Line 8, 10

Located in the northeast area of Shanghai, I haven't been to Peace Park since it was renovated. I heard from friends living near the park that it's more beautiful and suitable for leisurely strolls after the renovation. I remember often going to Peace Park to see animals when I was a child, so I'm an old customer of it, so I always want to have the opportunity to see its current appearance. Today I happened to pass by so I turned in, and I didn't expect to see "Yichi Coffee" under renovation as soon as I entered the gate. Friends who like to drink coffee know that Yichi Coffee specifically chooses places with culture and scenery to open stores. Now it has opened in the renovated Peace Park, which is enough to show that Peace Park is now a good place to talk about culture and see the scenery. I will definitely come for a cup when it opens.

The park is divided into three scenic areas, namely the scenic area, animal viewing area and children's entertainment area. The scenic area has rich plant communities, lush forests and bamboos, and a beautiful environment. The Eco-Animal Island is surrounded by water on all sides. The animal exhibition area has more than 60 kinds of animals, including lions, tigers, bears, leopards, and the "Bird Singing Forest". The biodiversity makes the park a perfect example of harmony between man and nature. On the east side of the Animal Island, a new wooden plank bridge was built, connecting the two sides of the lake into a winding embankment starting from the bridge pavilion at Gate 2 of the park, and on the inner side, a wetland accounting for one-fifth of the island's area was added. Highly ornamental plants such as lotus, water lily, rush, variegated reed and others will be planted in the wetland, and animals such as white geese will be released on the water to enhance the ornamental effect. In addition, the Eco-Animal Island will also add some fruit trees to the plant configuration to create a visual effect of spring flowers and autumn fruits, reflecting the "biodiversity" characteristics of the Eco-Animal Island. The park has four gates: Dalian Road is Gate No. 1, Xingang Road near Hongzhen Old Street is Gate No. 2, Tianbao Road is Gate No. 3, and Xingang Road near Ruihong Road is Gate No. 4, making it convenient for tourists to enter and exit.

Here, I would like to recommend a rather special park in Shanghai. Why do I say that? Mainly because, compared to other city parks in Shanghai, in addition to its beautiful natural environment and historical and cultural landscapes, the park surprisingly hides six ammunition depots built by the Japanese, which are not known to many visitors! Curious friends might ask, where exactly is this park in Shanghai? With these questions and curiosity, let's talk about the stories of the Shanghai Peace Park today. In 1938, this place was circled by the invading Japanese army for military use, and six reinforced concrete air-raid shelters were built as ammunition depots, and earthworks were dug around it. After liberation, it was turned into a public green space, with trees and flowers planted, and hills of varying heights were built on the original Japanese ammunition depot warehouse. In 1958, the Basket Park was built. On October 1, 1959, on the occasion of the 10th anniversary of the founding of the People's Republic of China, in order to warn future generations not to forget history and to love peace, the park was renamed Peace Park. Although, for many visitors, not many know about this historical and cultural attraction.
