Finally, I came to see Minhang Red Garden, which was planted by netizens! Although the garden is not big, it has red leaves comparable to Fengxian's "Guhua Garden" and Jiading's "Qiuxia Garden". There were not many people on the weekend morning, so I took the photo for more than an hour and came back satisfied (I looked up, I couldn’t lift the huge Panasonic order). - [RedHeart][Uncle said this year’s leaves are not as good as last year’s leaves] I met an uncle who was taking pictures of red leaves, so we started chatting... However, my hearing in Shanghainese is really weak, and I could only understand part of it. My uncle said that he is 75 years old and comes here every year to take pictures of red leaves. He is getting too old and can no longer hold a camera. The two cameras at home are gathering dust, so he uses his mobile phone to take pictures and post them on Moments. - The red leaves this year are not as good as in previous years, and some have withered before they turn red. The good thing is that the maple trees in Hongyuan are relatively scattered, so everyone doesn’t have to crowd together to take pictures. The maple leaves near two pavilions and an arch bridge are brilliantly red, and the sunlight shining on them is particularly enchanting. There are also several deciduous cypress trees, and now is a good time to see them. - [RedHeart]【Transportation】 Subway: Get off at Jiangchuan Road on Line 5 and walk for more than 10 minutes. Driving: Navigate to the parking lot of Shanghai Shangying Building Surrounding areas: Hanxiang Water Expo｜Jin’s Ancestral Hall Site｜Guteng Garden｜Daling Bay Library｜Huayi Wanchuang·Xinsuo｜Maqiao Ancient Cultural Site

There is an old house not far from home in Minhang, the Jin Family Ancestral Hall. I decided to visit it on a weekend city walk. It is a niche attraction. Apart from the administrator, there were only me and my child (and a cat sleeping inside). - The Jin Family Ancestral Hall is a traditional courtyard with three entrances and five rooms. It was opened to the public in June 2020 after renovation. It was formerly the Jin Family Charity House. The existing building was built in 1918 and is an immovable cultural relic registered in Minhang District. In addition, there are the former residences of Gu Yan and Jin Qingzhang on the short old street of Hexiang Bridge. There is also a beautiful brick-carved gatehouse in the old Jin Family house, but it is surrounded by construction fences. I hope it will be repaired and opened soon. - [One-day Tour of Old Minhang] See Route Map 2 ① Hanxiang Water Expo Park, Ancient Bridge Museum ② Jin Family Ancestral Hall, Maqiao Hexiang Bridge Old Street ③ Ancient Wisteria Garden, Ming Dynasty ancient wisteria with a history of nearly 500 years ④ Red Garden, a low-key park for viewing red leaves in autumn and winter ⑤ Zero Bay Library, a free library and a good place for parent-child activities ⑥ Huayi Wanchuang New Place, a good place for taking photos on sunny days ⑦ Maqiao Ancient Cultural Site, one of the four ancient cultural sites in Shanghai

Shanghai Red Park. The weather looked very good on Saturday, so we chose this great place to take the kids for a walk and spend a happy holiday. This park is located on Jiangchuan Road in Minhang District. A large number of red-leaf plum, green maple, red maple, triangular maple and other red-leaf tree species are planted in the park, sharing the colors of this season! 🍁🍃🍂🌲🌼🌿
