【Shanghai】Yu Garden

If you're going sightseeing next time, this is the place to go! Apparently! Since we were there after lunch, we walked from Nanjing Road! I think it took about 20 minutes? During that time, we could see the prosperous cityscape of Shanghai and the residential areas of Shanghai from a long time ago, and the journey to Yuyuan was really fun 🫶 We arrived at Yuyuan just before evening, so we took a short break and had milk tea at CHAGEE before the lights came on! I had oolong milk tea, and you can choose the sweetness from normal, a little less, half, slightly sweet, or none. I don't like it too sweet, but I thought it would be nice if it wasn't too sweet, so I chose slightly sweet, but it was sweet enough!! We got a large size because we were sharing one cup for two people, but it was perfectly drinkable! The milk tea was so delicious that I wanted to try it on the first day! If you go to Shanghai, please try this! I recommend it that much 🥰 Also, the cups are simply cute! It would be nice to take it with you! When I went out for a break, it was lit up and it was really beautiful...😳 It feels like an old Chinese building, but maybe because it's red, the lights look amazing. Just walking around was a great way to enjoy the atmosphere and it felt like a tourist spot! It was so much fun! There were so many restaurants, cafes, and souvenir shops lined up, and they all looked so delicious🫣 I wanted to eat baked xiaolongbao afterwards, so I held back! But there were also a few places like a food court with all kinds of food, and they looked so fun and delicious, so I think it was worth going! I enjoyed the streetscape while taking a walk to the garden, and then I headed to the garden! The twisting and turning is said to ward off bad luck👿 The devil can only walk straight, so twisting can ward off bad luck! Apparently you can pay the entrance fee and go inside in the daytime, but I went to see the night illuminations this time, so I didn't do that😭 Next time I'd like to go during the day and see inside too!! It was a tourist spot where you can enjoy the scenery of good old China! I really felt like I was in China, so I recommend it when sightseeing in Shanghai! Please visit it at least once😊 #ShanghaiTrip #ShanghaiTourism #Shanghai #YuYuan #YuYuanBasketballCenter
