[2024 Shanghai Attraction] Travel Guide for Shanghai Haiwan National Forest Park (Updated Oct)

Haiwan Forest- Pet friendly & in Shanghai

We went on an organised coach trip, it's a good hour from Pudong, so more from Puxi. But you really feel out of the city. Obviously autumn time. We took our own food and flasks of tea/ coffee, but there are places there (no Starbucks or McDs!). It was quite busy the lovely day we visited, but it never felt packed. Groups were dragon boat racing, and there are pedal boats (pets allowed). Dogs can run free, just look out for a few cars and golf carts. #shanghai #haiwanforest #petfriendly #forest

A beautiful park with many trees

This park was surprisingly busy for the spring festival holiday. However, it was still easy to get to and rent a large 4 wheeled bike. It is far out in Shanghai in Fengxian which also has a short piece of coastline. The roads going to the park are a little frustrating as they are narrow and used for a driving school, so take care. The park itself has a lots to offer and is best explored by wheels of some kind. The park is famous for trees and cherry blossoms in the spring. We were a little early in the year but it was still beautiful and plenty to see. The park was a very lively and beautiful place to visit in Mid-February and was popular with couples taking photos that day.

Canoeing Around Shanghai Haiwan National Forest Park 🛶

Located about a 2 hour drive from downtown Shanghai, Haiwan National Forest Park is a lovely escape from city life. We stayed in the campsite with glamping tents ~ complete with air conditioning, a fridge and full bathroom with toilet and shower. At night there was the chance to play karaoke and eat. We brought our own food and had a hot pot and barbecue. The next morning we took the golf carts to the large network of lakes and got in the canoes. We had a guide who showed us the way around and even played some games with us along the way. It was a very fun experience canoeing and being surrounded by such lush greenery and nature was fantastic. It’s a great escape from the city for a weekend trip. 🌲🌳 Back at the campsite there is also a building with a gym and small cafe inside. They provided breakfast and also we ate lunch here! #familytrip #mytravelhacks #localguides #shanghai #shanghaitrip #china #chinatrip #tripblazers #tripblazersh

Pretty big park, nice place to spend some time in the nature within the busy city. You can sit on the grass! I happen to come on a free-entry day, don't know what that depends on.

Plum blossoms have been seen, Meixiang has heard, Meiyuan has visited, but Shanghai, this plum garden is very different, it seems to be the largest in the country, 2000 acres of Merlin, is almost a century park. This is the Mei Park, which covers an area of 16,000 mu and has the best 5.3-kilometer coastline in Shanghai. It is generally not suitable for shooting large-scale scenes. Therefore, you can choose one or a few branches when shooting, take the odd of the plum branch, the beauty of the flower, or use the light and shadow to set off, but it is not necessarily right here. The water system in the plum garden is undulating and the topography is undulating, which constitutes the overall pattern of the Sandao Bay in the Three Lakes. It is mainly composed of plum blossoms and waxy plums. It is divided into early, middle and late flowering areas. 40,000 plum blossoms have been planted, and the variety has reached 126 species. Many, such as "iron bone red", "Oriental cinnabar", etc., the flowering period is like a cloud steaming Xia Wei, very magical. Although it is nearing the end of the period, it has added a lot of colors, bright yellow rapeseed, faint red moon, this garden is more beautiful. How to watch a large flower sea? Of course, it is the commanding height. The highest floor is called Chumei Pavilion. It is a three-storey building. It is expected to be the spring of Meiling. It is far from the Xianghu Lake. In winter, it is definitely a flavor. The three-hole bridge on the lake is the landmark of Meiyuan. The park has its characteristics all year round. The cherry blossom valley full of trees will become the protagonist in a few days. In the summer, there will be a cool and quiet thousand-acre lotus pond. The most beautiful autumn is the water-filled water forest. It is really a journey through the garden.

On New Year's Day, I went to see the world of flowers and flowers. In Shanghai Bay National Forest Park, Shanghai's parks spend a lot more, but plum blossoms are rare. Played with jennynui, I saw a lot of photographers and enthusiasts holding a long gun and a short gun, and the shutter sound of the cymbals continued, Plum was really murdering everyone's film. In addition to the plum blossoms, the quaint buildings are also a highlight of the park. These buildings were originally from the Ming Dynasty, although they were rebuilt in the later period, they are all protected buildings. Mei good season, Mei Yun is dark and fragrant. I am waiting for you at Shanghai Bay National Forest Park.
