Finally arrived at the peak season of the Shanghai ceiling Dawn Redwood Forest with a guide

This national forest park, famous for its spectacular redwood forest, Shanghai Bay National Forest Park, has finally reached its best viewing period. The vast Dawn Redwood forest by Bai Niao Lake is now fully dyed in layers, with red, yellow, and green weaving a stunning oil painting. Few people, beautiful scenery, and clear weather—hurry up! 📸 Check-in guide: ➊ Bai Niao Lake Dawn Redwood Forest Follow the "Best Viewing Platform for Redwood Forest" sign. The boardwalk offers an amazing panoramic view, truly a visual feast. There is also a check-in installation that enhances the atmosphere for portrait photos! ➋ Secret Dawn Redwood Road Located near the park's amusement area, tall and dense Dawn Redwood trees, with a ground covered in golden soapberry leaves. Backlit photography is amazing, and the best part is no crowds, no crowds. ➌ Boat Dock If you have enough time, definitely try boating. Glide through the huge and long lakeside Dawn Redwood forest to unlock a unique perspective. I couldn’t stop rowing and even paddled multiple times into the forest by the lake—double the joy and perfect for photos! 🌲 The park offers scenery all year round: · 2000-acre Plum Garden (winter) · Peony Garden + Cherry Blossom Avenue + Wisteria Garden (spring) · Huge Lotus Pond (summer) · Redwood Forest (late autumn + early winter) ⚠️ Friendly reminders: ▸ Few dining options; I only saw a large spot at Gate 1 and a snack point at the boat dock. ▸ Self-driving is recommended as public transportation is inconvenient. ▸ Tickets are required; hopefully, free admission days will be offered in the future~
