You must visit Yuyuan Garden in Shanghai!!
🌈Jiyu Shuilang: Named after the 'Jiyu Peak' stone next to the corridor. The corridor is a hundred meters long, the longest water corridor in Jiangnan classical gardens, winding and twisting, with ancient trees dripping with verdancy, red fish swimming in the pond, pavilions and kiosks overflowing with light and color, full of poetic and picturesque charm.
🌈Nine Lions Pavilion: This pavilion is elegant and beautiful, with a moon platform in front, half spanning the pond. You can enjoy tea and watch fish by the railing, and listen to the snow while boiling wine.
🌈Cloud-Piercing Dragon Wall: The Cloud-Piercing Dragon Wall is located to the west of Dianchun Hall. The dragon's head is made of clay, and the dragon's body is made of tiles to form scales. The dragon's head is mighty, and the dragon's body is winding. The entire dragon seems to want to raise its head and fly, piercing into the clouds. There are also several other dragon walls in the garden: there is a sleeping dragon behind the large rockery. There are twin dragons playing with a pearl to the west of Hexu Hall, and a sleeping dragon in front of the 'Can be Viewed' in the inner garden. Each has its own characteristics.
🌈Kuai Tower: To the southeast of Dianchun Hall, there is a lake stone rockery Baoyun Rock, with water and stones intertwined, and the caves are deep and secluded. Looking at the mountain stone from a distance, it is like a white cloud in the sky. There is a double-storey pavilion on the mountain; the upper floor is called Kuai Tower, and you can overlook the large rockery and the panoramic view of Yuyuan Garden from the tower, and your mood is cheerful, hence the name; the lower floor is called Yanshuang Pavilion, with carved beams and painted eaves, quite exquisite. Going down from Kuai Tower to the south, there are Jingyi Pavilion and Tingli Pavilion, surrounded by flower walls, forming a small courtyard.
🌈Tingtao Pavilion: Tingtao Pavilion is located to the east of Jiyu Shuilang, facing north and south as a two-story building. 'Tingtao' means that this place is close to the Huangpu River, and the sound of the waves seems to be heard. The south part is a pavilion, and the upper part is an elegant room. On top of it, there is a single-legged crane standing alone, looking south across the pool to Hanbi Tower.

I just have to go early. At 4:30, I will rush people to clear the field. The time is still too tight for the private garden that needs detailed products. There will be many people taking pictures in it. In addition, there are really many foreigners in Shanghai.
Can’t miss if you’re in Shanghai. Fascinating garden with beautiful, well-preserved architecture.
I thought Shanghai was a high-rise building. I didn’t expect there to be such a beautiful place in this bustling place. This season is very beautiful, with flowers in full bloom, green trees, antique, and the royal garden has a fight, just look at the picture.
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 💜.
