Yu Garden Review

Had a great experience... Such a peaceful place in the midst of bustling areas..

Entry was seamless with the QR code issued, which makes things alot more convenient. The garden is very serene with flowers blooming and ducks swimming in the ponds. My family enjoyed the visit.

Best experience process In the afternoon, visit Yuyuan Garden (paid garden) Huxinting Tea House and drink tea at 4:30 in advance to the second floor of Nanxiang Xiaolong Store and wait for seats (only the second floor can see the lanterns). By the way, after eating at 18:00, the lights will be on and left.

This is a must see location in Shanghai. It's especially beautiful during the Chinese New Year with the giant displays and decorations.

Yu Garden is located at No. 168 Fuyou Road, Huangpu District, Shanghai, covering an area of about 30 mu. It was built in the Ming Dynasty as a private garden. It was opened to the public in 1961 and is now a national scenic spot. The Huijing Building and Jiushi Temple in the park are in the center, and the panoramic view is climbed to the building; the lake center pavilion connects the two sides of the stone Jiuqu Bridge. Sansuitang has water, forests and pavilions; the collection building and the Deyue building are full of water waves, and the algae is colorful; there is a gas-plastic dragon sculpture near the ancient stage, which is a place for tourists to punch in. The snacks in Yuyuan Garden are also very historical.

Very good garden, very well protected, today I saw the staff doing sanitation to the ancient buildings, they are very careful, work too seriously, moved! ! ! This is a very distinctive Jiangnan garden, not the same as the gardens in Suzhou.

A very beautiful place specially during the chinese new year. I went there to see the different lanterns they prepared for the special occasion 💜.
