I am an island owner in the Magic City, with a summer island camping guide
Weekends are meant to be enjoyed, and the early summer weekends offer countless possibilities. Recently, my friends have been dragging me to various island camping adventures, and it's absolutely amazing!
📍 Songjiang
👉 LuLaLa Camping Site
🚗 No. 641, Rutang Highway, Songjiang District, Shanghai
Coming here, I realized that camping can also be about playing in the water, with bamboo rafts/paddleboards/kayaks all available! Besides the camping site, there are also attractions like the Xinbang Lotus Garden and Songjiang Mao Port Wetland nearby to check out.
📍 Qingpu
👉 Green Island Manor·Lake Heart Island Camping
🚗 No. 3, Lianqian Road, Qingpu District, Shanghai
Feeling like the 2 days of the weekend are simply not enough! This camping site, surrounded by Jinze Town Old Street, Qingxi Country Park, Zhujiajiao Ancient Town, and Dianshan Lake Scenic Area, is such a treasure! Each independent small island is a camping area, and if you have enough people, you can even rent the entire island to be the weekend island owner, which is super exciting la~
📍 Chongming
👉 Changxing Island Country Park
🚗 No. 199, Qiugan Road, Chongming District, Shanghai
There are so many camping sites on Chongming Island that it's almost impossible to count them all, but the camping area in Changxing Island Country Park has everything prepared in advance, easily achieving a refined grab-and-go camping mode, and mom no longer has to worry about me not being able to carry everything!
📍 Chongming
👉 Dongtan Wetland Park
🚗 Dongtan Dongwang Road, Chongming District, Shanghai
Also located on Chongming Island, Dongtan itself is a huge ecological scenic area, which includes attractions like the 98 Dyke, Chongming Dongtan Birds National Nature Reserve, and more. Camping here, you can count the stars to your heart's content at night, and early risers can enjoy a beautiful seaside sunrise🌅
Changxing Island Country Park is basically green on Changxing Island between Chongming Island and Shanghai. Park tickets are free. It covers a large area and will be tired by walking on 2 legs. It is recommended to sweep the car. There are many orange trees on it, which is a feature inside. It is best to come in the month, so that you can eat Changxing Island honey oranges. The weather is not good today. We went shopping on the periphery. We didn't go too inside. It was good to go shopping.
Changxing Island is very suitable for weekends. There is nothing particularly worth seeing on the island, but there are green parks everywhere, which is very refreshing. It can be said that there are scenery everywhere, but the scenery is not amazing and more natural.
The main attractions on Changxing Island include the Shanghai Orange Garden, Mongolian Village Racecourse, Pearl Garden, Shanghai Stunt City, Xianfeng Resort, Shisha Wildlife Park, Green Island Reed Maze, and Xingdao Resort Country Club. In late autumn, the Shanghai Citrus Festival held on the island is colorful and lively.
From Shanghai to Changxing Island, I know two places to start: 1. Wusong Passenger Station takes Shenchong Line 5, or Wusong Wharf takes a ferry. 2. The Shanghai Science and Technology Museum takes the Shenchong Line 4 and takes a 45-minute drive to Changxing Island. I chose the second route. The Shanghai Yangtze River Bridge is blocked and wastes more time on holidays. I suggest taking buses to avoid traffic jams in the second season of environmental protection. Changxing Island orange forest everywhere, orange tree branches are full of fruits, look extremely greedy, prohibit picking privately oh, there are special picking gardens, there are early oranges on the roadside for sale, the taste is good! Due to limited time, only visited Changxing Island Country Park, the first beach of the Yangtze River was not completed. Beautiful scenery on the island, on both sides of the road, spruce stands, the air is fresh, the sky is also blue, hee hee! __________ Come for a walk on weekends, relax, and it's good too! __________
It has been more than 30 years since I last came here. Like Chongming Island, it has changed a lot. My friend made an appointment to go to Shangdao for a small gathering. It just happened that the Changxing Island Country Park had just opened. There was no ticket and the parking cost was 10 yuan. The park is full of wild and interesting scenery, suitable for urban people to take leisure and vacation. Traffic is very convenient, driving through the Yangtze River Tunnel, about an hour, the toll is 20 yuan. The oranges are ripe. They are sold everywhere on the island. They retail for one yuan a kilo and buy another 20 yuan a basket. It's a little sour and tastes bad.
Originally to Chongming, my lunch friend took me to a familiar restaurant in Changxing Island and visited Changxing Island by the way. To be honest, it's better to catch up than Chongming Island. The windmill has a wide view, few people and an invincible scenery. Later, we will arrange to visit Changxing Island alone.
In winter, I went to see the first beach of the Yangtze River in Changxing Island. I didn't expect to see the sparkling Yangtze River. Looking closely, the river water on the shore was still turbid yellow, which was the reflection of the blue sky. The first beach of the Yangtze River has a good water-friendly platform, which is definitely a paradise for swimming in summer! The first choice for farmhouse dishes in Changxing Island is the restaurant of the former Qianwei Farm. The bungalows that were not greatly modified at the time deliberately left slogans related to the Cultural Revolution, and the tableware also had the characteristics of the Cultural Revolution. These things are so familiar to those who came from that era! The food tastes good and the price is reasonable. It is best to make a reservation in advance. The training of foreign waitresses is not mature enough.
First time to Changxing Island! Very excited! The environment is good! Pick oranges in the orange garden! It's good to bring children to play! There's also a country park! It just hasn't been built yet! Come and have a barbecue when it's ready in the future! Camp! Pretty good!
