Shanghai Qingxi Suburban Park, bald cypress trees have turned red and entered the best viewing period!

hello everyone! I am Jason. The bald cypress trees in Shanghai Qingxi Country Park have turned red (Figure 2) and entered their best viewing period (Figure 3). It is expected to last for about two weeks, and driving here can easily cause trouble. I have prepared a guide (Figure 16) to help everyone handle check-in procedures and take photos more effectively. Address: No. 500 Zilian Road, Jinze Town, Qingpu District, Shanghai. Time: 8:30-16:30, Shuilin tickets close at 4:00 pm. Ticket: Free, no reservation required. Transportation: It is recommended to drive in the city center. It takes about an hour to depart; Or take the subway Line 17 East Station and get off at Fangluzhou Station, then take a taxi for 20 minutes. Parking lots: There are a total of 5 parking lots. P1 parking lot is relatively close to the core scenic area, but the parking space is tight, and the parking fee is $2/day (it is not recommended to park in the parking lot, there are better parking methods, closer to the scenic area, free, see tour guide map)

【 Travel Guide 】 1. Regarding Parking: Qingxi Country Park is large, but the true core scenic area is in the northeast corner. The park parking lot is far from the core scenic area, and you have to spend extra money to drive. You can drive to Lianxie Road (the normal way for cars to enter and exit the village), park at Gate 2, and reach the roadside parking area shown on the tour guide map. At this moment, walking along the purple line on the tour guide map for less than 1 kilometer, you will arrive at the entrance of Shuilin. When there are many people, there will be restrictions on Gate 2. You can park your car at the entrance of Dianshan Lake Primary School and notify the restaurant staff to come and pick you up (Figure 16)

2. Regarding food: The core scenic area does not provide catering services. You can dine in the area displayed on the tour guide map, where there are many farm restaurants to choose from (I am in a small courtyard with good taste and service) Regarding photography: The essence of the park lies in the key photo registration area displayed on the tour guide map. Among them, tourists are mainly concentrated in the core scenic areas. In fact, the surrounding scenery (along the water) is also good (Figure 1), with very few people. Reminder: The areas outside the core area of Shuilin are pet friendly. It is recommended to visit on sunny days with more beautiful light and shadow. Vegetables and fruits in the sales area are picked on-site for fresh and delicious taste. You can buy some on your way back.
