Huangpu Park & Outdoor Swimming

Huangpu Park is one of the oldest parks in Huangpu CBD area. It was originally opened in 1999, but over the past 1.5 years has been under going major renovations. 🏞The park has a large grassy area surrounding a man-made lake in the centre. Many people like to come here in the evening and weekend to exercise and relax. 🐟The lake is the jewel of the park, when the sun is out in force - you can see wonderful sunsets here! (Unfortunately the day I took my camera, I did not!). You’ll find many kids trying to catch fish and other wild waterlife. 💪At the rear of the park, you will also find an outdoor gym area for free use. I even saw one guy brought his own weights 😅 🏊‍♀️Surprisingly there is also an outdoor swimming pool - Huangpu Park Swimming Paradise. Although inside the park, it is a separate area and requires payment to enter the swimming area - check it out to find out more. The Huangpu Park is also home of being a central point for emergencies such as helicopter landings, water supply and so on. What I love about this park is it’s family feeling - whilst in the middle of busy part of town. Check it out for nice afternoon walk 📍Huangpu East Road, Pearl Delta River Area 🕐Official open time is 7am - 9pm (although that’s not always the case!) 💰Cost: It’s a free park - with free toilet facilities.
