New Kid-Friendly Spot in Magic City｜Heatproof Version
Today, I brought Fantu to the Shanghai Greenhouse located in the center of the Expo Cultural Park! Today, we were invited to explore the greenhouse before its official opening! (Opening in late September)
It's a great opportunity for Fantu to gain some new experiences! Such a hot day! Indoor activities for kids! Definitely a bonus!
And it rained heavily today, luckily it's indoors!
The Shanghai Greenhouse Garden has four pavilions, connected by aerial corridors and industrial trusses, forming a whole. Among them, there is one service center and three themed pavilions. The three themed pavilions are Mirage Sandbar (Pavilion 1), Cloud Forest (Pavilion 2), and Misty Canyon (Pavilion 3).
The pavilions are large with many stairs, not suitable for strollers. It's recommended for kids who can walk on their own, as it can help them burn more energy.
Our Fantu loves the interactive lights in the basement and the underwater corridor with lots of fish. 😂 Kids just have a mysterious love for fish.
The Greenhouse Garden was transformed from the old factory buildings of the former Shanggang No. 3 Plant. The original steel space was directly reused, becoming the natural outline of the Greenhouse Garden. Once completed, it will showcase plant landscapes from deserts and rainforests, and will become a dazzling new landmark in downtown Shanghai.
The Greenhouse Garden has four glass pavilions:
The Desert Pavilion replicates canyons and dunes,
The Natural Rainforest Pavilion features tropical plants, swamps, and wetlands,
The Cloud Garden has waterfalls and perennial flowers and fruit trees,
and the Vertical Garden has aerial walkways and hanging flower seas.
Our three-year-old can walk the entire route, and we teach him about plants along the way! He loves it 😍! So happy!
Each pavilion has resting chairs, so you can take a break if you get tired. It's great for kids to burn off energy.
Driving 🅿️: You can park at Twin Mountain P4 Parking Lot or Flower Garden P5 Parking Lot
Subway 🚇: Exit 4 of Hou Tan Station on Line 7, or Exit 4 of Expo Avenue Station on Line 13

Indoor must-visit for parents and children! I found the Shanghai Urban Garden
I would call this place a vibrant urban summer forest! 🍃 You can feel the lush tropical rainforest in Shanghai! Xiwen loves it! Mainly because it's very cool here, it's not an exaggeration to call it a summer retreat during the dog days! 🌴
It's currently in the testing phase (expected to open in late September), and we came to experience it in advance haha 😘 We really spent a whole day here and still wanted more. The main attraction is the three themed pavilions, each with its own unique features. 🐾 Pavilion 1, Desert Oasis, allows you to experience the ecology of arid regions with your kids. 🐾 Pavilion 2, Cloud Forest, is designed around a 'big tree' with a cloud bridge. This pavilion left a deep impression on us! We all loved this design, as you can admire the plants from different heights and perspectives! 🐾 Pavilion 3, Misty Canyon, simulates canyon landscapes, like a hanging garden!
The Shanghai Greenhouse Garden is a hidden gem! 👏 It's not only suitable for parent-child trips but also great for the whole family to check in and immerse themselves in the surprises of tropical flowers and plants! When it officially opens, we will definitely bring Xiwen back for multiple visits! 😍
🎈 Name: Shanghai Greenhouse Garden
🎈 Address: Central location of Shanghai Expo Cultural Park, adjacent to Central Lake (if driving, you can park at Twin Peaks P4 parking lot, if taking the subway, you can choose Line 7 or Line 13, exit 4 at Houtan Station)
🎈 Area: 22,000 square meters, with a total above-ground and underground building area of about 40,000 square meters

Shanghai Kid-Friendly Outing｜Exotic Flowers and Plants, Feel the Breath of Nature～
I announce that the Shanghai Greenhouse Garden is about to become the next kid-friendly hotspot!
Take your kids to check it out this weekend. Not only will you see various exotic flowers and plants, but you will also learn a lot of scientific knowledge. It's really great👍🏻
Located in the center of Shanghai Expo Cultural Park, it has an elegant and grand appearance. It is also the largest exhibition greenhouse in the country, with three themed pavilions, each with its own style.
It is recommended to start with the first pavilion. The Mirage Sandbar and Cloud Forest are connected. You can listen to the explanations while getting up close and personal with these plants🥰
Mirage Sandbar: Mainly showcases sandbar plant communities. The leaves inside are very unique, either sharp or thick, truly deserving the name 'mutated leaves'.
Cloud Forest: Truly a mysterious tropical rainforest. Both my child and I exclaimed in wonder when we saw the aerial roots!
Cloud Canyon: Wandering through the simulated mountain canyon terrain, you can always find beautiful flowers in unexpected places. There is also a waterfall in this pavilion, the best spot for photos. Both adults and children are immersed in it, and the photos turn out great💯
Throughout the visit, the kids watched carefully and listened attentively, occasionally expressing their own opinions. They learned while watching, which is very meaningful! Fei Jie was so fascinated that she didn't respond to me even after I called her several times.
The entire visit takes about 2 hours. Many plants have introductions, making it a great educational experience that supplements classroom knowledge. Before leaving, my child even said goodbye to their favorite plants, promising to visit again next time. It seems they really didn't want to leave～
Parking is quite convenient for those driving. I look forward to this place becoming the next popular kid-friendly check-in spot. You can also make reservations on the mini-program. By the way, there will be a light and shadow show in the evening! Looking forward to it
😚

The new look of the Expo Cultural Park
Coming to the Expo Cultural Park on a hot summer day, a glance at the lotus pond here immediately makes you feel cool. It feels like a long time since I last came here, the small trees have grown taller, and walking along the boardwalk in the small forest, it's shady all the way. The Twin Mountains stand tall across the artificial lake, creating mountains is not easy, I couldn't help but look at them for a long time. The green grass, the lake surface, and the arch bridge blend into one, creating a peaceful scene. The new look of the cultural park is really nice.

It's not that Altay is unaffordable, it's just that Shanghai offers better value for money
‼️This Shanghai version of Altay is just too chill
The large lawn at the Expo Culture Park has turned summer in Shanghai into 'Shang-le-hai'
The area is incredibly vast, perfect for letting loose
And right across is the costly Shuangzi Mountain, offering an unbeatable view!
The most important thing is, it's so peaceful here! Hardly anyone around!!
Transportation is also super convenient, with the park's main entrance right outside the subway exit
·
📍Location: Expo Culture Park
If you're taking a taxi, make sure to set your destination to 108 Guozhan Road, Shanggang New Village Street, Pudong New District, or to the P1 parking lot. If you park at P3, you'll have to walk 1 kilometer to reach this lawn!
.
⭐️Three prime photo spots beyond the lawn
❶ At the top of the large lawn, shoot from below upwards, placing the bridge to the right of the person, with a focal length of 2-3 times
❷ On the lawn near the lake, you can take a close-up of the bridge
❸ Facing the left side of the lake, there's a small grove that, combined with the stones and path in the lake, creates a great atmosphere
.
⭐️Besides this lawn, there's also the Jiangnan-style Shenyuan nearby
It has the feel of a Suzhou garden
If you're taking a taxi away, set your destination to the north gate of Shenyuan, which is closest
There are also many restaurants and coffee shops near the lawn

Today I visited the Expo Culture Park, it's quite large, you can ride a shared bicycle around, and if you're driving, it's more convenient to reserve a parking spot through the mini-program in advance.
Today was really hot, I couldn't walk at all after leaving the parking garage, fortunately, there are many places to rest in the park. We went to the One Foot Garden and had coffee for two hours, and didn't leave until the evening to take a stroll, and from a distance, we looked at the 2 billion piled up

Shanghai! It's so beautiful and romantic here!! It's like walking into a Hayao Miyazaki anime
The weather in Shanghai has been so good lately!!!
As soon as you come out of the subway station, you see the azure sky, clouds like cotton candy, and the entire bridge reflected in the pond, it's just too dreamy!!!
I really like the early summer in Shanghai, when the weather is good, there's a kind of déjà vu of a coastal city

Shanghai World Expo Culture Park—The new landmark of Pudong in the future
The World Expo Culture Park is located under the Expo Rainbow Bridge—Lupu Bridge, and the entire park extends all the way to the Huangpu River. The French Pavilion, Italian Pavilion, Luxembourg Pavilion, and Russian Pavilion from the previous Expo are located in the park, along with the later-built Shen Garden, which imitates the Jiangnan water town, the Twin Peaks connected by the Eleven-Arch Bridge, Dog Paradise, and so on. Once the Twin Peaks are open to the public, you can go all the way to the International Equestrian Center, which is also a very worthwhile place to check in.
Additionally, the toilet near the Russian Pavilion is also worth a visit, haha, it's a toilet where you can't see inside from the outside, but you can see outside from the inside. Moreover, the layout and decoration inside the toilet are also full of a sense of luxury.
Transportation:
Subway Line 13, Expo Museum Road Station
Tips:
The front of the park is on Changqing Road, enter from the side of the Italian Pavilion, and the main entrance of Shen Garden is on the right hand side.
The park is open for free, but Shen Garden requires a ticket purchase, 30 RMB per person.
There are parking spaces in the park, but reservation is needed.
Dog Paradise is located by the river, and there are still many people who bring their dogs to play. Next to the paradise, there is a manner coffee, where you can sit and watch the river view, enjoy the breeze, and daydream.
If you walk through the entire park, you can play for almost a day.
Pictures 2—5 are respectively the French Pavilion, Italian Pavilion, Luxembourg Pavilion, and Russian Pavilion.

Shanghainese have found their own Altay in the Expo Culture Park
Don't roll on the ergonomic lawns of the West Bank anymore, it's less crowded, more scenic, and photogenic here.
The Expo Culture Park Twin Peaks, which cost 2.1 billion to build within the Expo Culture Park, is about to open. I've tested it myself, and there's a vast expanse of greenery and woods, especially the lawn opposite the Eleven-Arch Bridge, which isn't crowded, is peaceful, and offers a 'view' of the Twin Peaks.
In addition to the greenery, there are also many seasonal flowers and plants to photograph. Just set your location to the Luxembourg Pavilion in the park, and you'll find the little yellow flowers and white daisies from the stories.
The note photo was taken on May 22nd, and judging by the current sunlight, the light will be softer after 4 pm, making it easier to take good photos.

The hidden gem of a daisy slope in the heart of Magic City, enjoyed by no one else!
Still rolling up roses? The daisy slope in the city center is already stunningly beautiful! And the key point, it's not crowded at all! ✨
This spring, after seeing too many gorgeous and colorful roses, the sight of these daisies really took my breath away.
On an early summer morning, I originally planned to check out other flowers, but after parking the car, I stumbled upon the daisy slope. Those daisies (actually large marguerites) were shimmering under the morning sun, and from afar, one could see the dazzling white light.
As I walked closer, countless pristine daisies appeared like clouds in the sky, light and graceful. They gathered in clusters, forming a sea of white flowers. Under the sunlight, the petals sparkled with a crystal-clear light, as if inlaid with countless tiny diamonds, so beautiful it was breathtaking.
The gentle breeze made the daisies sway, like dancing fairies with light and elegant movements. I felt as if I was in a fairy tale world.
What's rare is that there were hardly any visitors here. In this place, one could take photos and check in to their heart's content. I abandoned my original plan and took hundreds of photos here, truly reluctant to leave.

Cherry Blossom Mystery Adventure: An Unexpected Delight at the Expo Culture Park
🌸Cherry Blossom Mystery Adventure: An Unexpected Delight at the Expo Culture Park🌼
🌞Today the sun is just right, I met up with a friend at the Expo Culture Park, originally just with a try-it-and-see attitude, hoping to capture the delicate beauty of the cherry blossoms.🌸
🚶♀️As we walked into the park, most of the cherry blossoms were still shyly budding, which made us somewhat disappointed and ready to head home.😔
👀But just as we were about to give up, we stumbled upon a few cherry trees, where the tender cherry blossoms had already quietly bloomed!🌸✨
📸We immediately took out our phones to capture this rare beauty. Each cherry blossom was like a meticulously crafted piece of art, with its soft petals glistening in the sunlight.💕
💃Our mood instantly brightened, beauty always appears when least expected, as long as we are willing to search for it, we will surely find its traces.🌈

The tulips are in full bloom at the World Expo Culture Park
The World Expo Culture Park is really playing up the floral theme!
The World Expo Culture Park is located in the Yaohua block of Pudong New District, on the former site of the World Expo pavilions. Currently, it still retains the Russian Pavilion, Italian Pavilion, French Pavilion, and Belgian Pavilion. The park mainly consists of tranquil forests, the Expo Garden, Shenyuan, the Central Lake, and other landscape areas and attractions.
With the arrival of spring, the tulips in the park are in full bloom, looking exceptionally beautiful and charming against the backdrop of the pavilions and the lake.
NeonIllusion
A cultural park with mountains, water, and forests
🌸 Along the lakeside of the park, rows of tulips bloom beautifully, intermingling with the trees, 🎨 creating a magnificent picture. However, if you go on the weekend, it can be a bit crowded...
🌟 I went there in the late afternoon, and by that time the crowd had thinned out, bringing a sense of tranquility. 🚣♀️ Capturing the tulips on the little boats and even encountering the afterglow of the sunset, it's a sparkling romantic spring sentiment.
📝 Spring is for strolling in the park, and if you haven't monopolized a flower season's spring festival, then it's certainly not perfect.

The World Expo Culture Park will be the largest ecological park in the downtown area of Magic City
I visited the World Expo Culture Park before the Spring Festival and found that it has huge potential for future development. Its influence will be no less than that of New York's Central Park in the future.
📍Detailed address: No. 100 Jikun Road, Pudong New District, Shanghai
🕙Business hours: 8:30——22:00
🚉Transportation strategy: Metro lines 13 and 7 can both get you there. If you're driving, there's a parking lot nearby. If it's full, you can park in the basement of the China Gold Building across the street.
🗓 Background: The World Expo Culture Park is a scenic area located in the Yaohua block of Pudong New District, covering an area of about 2 square kilometers. The currently opened northern area of the park occupies 85 hectares and mainly consists of the Tranquil Forest, Expo Garden, Shenyuan, Central Lake, and other landscape areas and attractions.
The construction of the World Expo Culture Park is one of Shanghai's major initiatives to improve the ecosystem, enhance spatial quality, continue the Expo spirit, and build a global city. The park is conveniently located and can be reached by rail transit, tunnels, and bridges. Once fully completed, the nearly 2 square kilometers of the large park will become an ecological landmark along the Huangpu River in the central urban area of Shanghai.
🌟Highlights: Shenyuan, located in Shanghai, China, is a garden within the World Expo Culture Park that uniquely features the cultural characteristics of gardens in the Jiangnan region. It covers a total area of 5 hectares. The park is designed with mountains, water, buildings, and bridges, forming a spatial layout of north mountain, south water, east garden, and west garden. Shenyuan focuses on constructing eight scenic spots: Drunken Red Against the Sunset, Ancient Ke Evening Ferry, Jade Hall Full of Spring, Pine and Rock Spring Flow, Melodic Fragrance of Heaven, Autumn River Sunset, Misty Rain Penglai, and Lotus Breeze Fish Fun.

The World Expo Garden is a riot of spring flowers
In the World Expo Garden, where the spring flowers bloom brilliantly, the flowers vie with each other in beauty; the cherry blossom path is strewn with petals like a flurry of snow; the Time Marking Avenue is adorned with the delicate and bright beauty of weeping crabapples; the rhododendrons in Shen Garden are dazzlingly colorful and eye-catching.

Shanghai World Expo Cultural Park, a free natural history museum
🌞On a warm spring day, my family and I came to the Shanghai World Expo Cultural Park. It is a large public park that is completely open to the public, covering an area of 2 square kilometers. It still retains some of the national pavilions from the time of the Shanghai World Expo, making it a free natural history museum.
🌸The park has a variety of plants and trees, and even in winter, many flowers bloom, such as white magnolias, plum blossoms, and violets, offering a different visual experience each season. The park also features a garden called Shen Garden, built in the style of Suzhou classical gardens. It is small and exquisite, perfectly capturing the essence of Suzhou gardens, where every step reveals a new scene and people wander amidst the landscapes.
🚇The transportation is very convenient, with the park being easily accessible from the Expo Avenue Station on Metro Line 13. There is no admission fee for the park, but Shen Garden requires a separate ticket, which costs 20 yuan during the off-season and 30 yuan during the peak season, with half-price tickets available at a discount.
🦢The park's waterscape is also beautiful, with many swans in the lakes, each with their own names, such as Xiao Bai, Xiao Hei, Xiao Hui, etc. We brought bread to feed them, and they were very tame, following us around. There is also a cute sculpture of a big white rabbit on the lake, which is a popular spot for photos.
🌆The park's viewing platform is also worth a visit, offering a view of the distant cityscape and the under-construction Shuangzi Mountain, which is said to become a new landmark of Shanghai in the future. I'm looking forward to its completion.
🌙The park is even more beautiful at night, with the former Luxembourg Pavilion, the former Russian Pavilion, the former Italian Pavilion, and the former French Pavilion all lit up, creating a stunning nightscape, perfect for romantic dates.
😊In summary, the Shanghai World Expo Cultural Park is a place well worth visiting. Not only can you enjoy the breath and beauty of nature, but you can also revisit the history and culture of the World Expo and enjoy free services. It's truly a place with multiple benefits.
