Century Park in Pudong , line 2, has a stop named after it, is one of the largest and has a huge lake. Always something going on there. |

My favorite park is Fuxing park. It really shows a slice of Shanghai life.
But if you are looking to get away from the heat of the city and feel a little nature then the first recommendation for Century Park was right on.
Still, make a point to go to Fuxing park sometime in the fall or spring when its a little more pleasant outside. |

I like Century Park also,
We hired a pushbike for the first hour to see what was around.
They have a small theme park for the kiddies, and also nice to hire a small boat if you want to relax on the river. |

Gong Qing Forrest Park is also a nice place to go, though it is not right easily accessible by metro. Just take a taxi. It is also quite easily accessible from Pudong because it is not too far away from YangPu bridge in the Puxi side. |

For me West Lake.
For the sheer size of it and its natural beauty.
Have you been playmaker? |

West Lake,Zhejiang Province,where is full of beautiful natural sights.
Century Park is good the earlier years it was built in Shanghai,where a Chinese city has only a short history and full of human-made things,not as good nowadays.
Natural creations never fades, but human-made things will always fade its color.Just check the beautiful buildings in Shanghai and this whole city! |
