📍Shanghai Chenshan Botanical Garden (There are opening and closing times and tickets~) The weather is perfect for a stroll through the botanical garden.

A Sea of Flowers Like Poetry: Wandering Through the Spring Memories of Shanghai Chenshan Botanical Garden

Stepping into Shanghai Chenshan Botanical Garden feels like entering a fairyland adorned with blooming flowers. The warm and gentle spring sunlight reflects off the colorful sea of flowers, making each bloom appear exceptionally vibrant. Various flowers bloom in succession, from delicate cherry blossoms to elegant tulips, swaying gently in the breeze and emitting a subtle fragrance that is intoxicating. I wandered leisurely along the flower-lined paths, bending down to closely observe the posture of each flower, marveling at their beauty and vitality. In the distance, the lake and mountain scenery complement each other, adding a layer of tranquility to the sea of flowers. Visitors, in small groups, either take photos in front of the flowers or rest on the grass, with laughter and floral scents intertwining, filling the entire garden with vitality. Every step here is full of surprises, making it hard to leave. The sea of flowers in Chenshan Botanical Garden is not only a gift from nature but also a dream meticulously woven by spring for people.

Shanghai Chenshan Botanical Garden: Magnolia and Cherry Blossom Festival

I visited Shanghai's Chenshan Botanical Garden in March, where a row of magnolia trees was planted right at the entrance. It was the blooming season, and the flowers complemented the river's bay scenery beautifully! The first thing I saw upon entering the garden was a relatively short cherry blossom tree, which allowed for close-up photos with the cherry blossoms without the need for a ladder📷. We could spend nearly an hour admiring just one cherry blossom tree, and it was hard to leave! Garden Transportation: There are golf carts available in the park for only 5 yuan per person Passengers must get off at the terminal stations (A, B). The route arrangements are as follows: A line: Starting from Gate 1 Comprehensive Building — Children's Botanical Garden Station — Quarry Garden Station — Rock Garden Station — Exhibition Greenhouse Terminal Station B line: Exhibition Greenhouse Station — East China Area Garden Station — Aquatic Plant Garden Station — Gate 1 Comprehensive Building Terminal Station.

Entering from Gate No.1 and turning right, there is a large area of cherry blossoms, with the early blooming pale pink blossoms being exceptionally beautiful. Whether at the entrance or walking further in, the place is crowded everywhere, making it difficult to find a cherry tree without people around. It is recommended to take close-up shots of the splendid cherry blossoms for particularly good photos. 🌟Ticket Price: 60RMB (very worthwhile) Subway and Bus: 1. Take the Subway Line 9 to "Dongjing" station, exit from Exit 3, and then take the Songjiang No.19 bus from "Dongjing Subway Station" to "Chenshan Botanical Garden" stop for Gate No.1, or to "Chenta Road Shetiankun Highway (Chenshan Botanical Garden West Gate)" stop for Gate No.3. 2.

This weekend, experience the joy of having an entire Yoshino cherry blossom forest to yourself

🌈The most important thing in spring is, of course, cherry blossom viewing🌈 📍It's undeniable that at the end of March, the Chenshan Botanical Garden is the ultimate cherry blossom viewing spot in the magic city! 🔸In the morning, there are few people in the vast cherry blossom forest, and the blooming cherry blossoms are like pink clouds, filling the entire sky, a sight too beautiful for words😍. 🔸From mid to early March, different varieties of cherry blossoms begin to bloom one after another, with the most beautiful being the Yoshino cherry blossoms of Nakazakura. The cherry blossom season in the park lasts a long time, and by early April, you can generally see cherry blossoms at different stages of their bloom. 📸Photo tips: 👗Outfit: Light-colored clothes will make your photos stand out! Props: Avoid having empty hands, only doing the ✌️ sign? Remember to bring some photography props, such as balloons, cameras, books, straw bags, etc. 🤳Photo angles: You can take close-up shots when there are fewer people, and also capture large scenes. 🏷Note: 👉To avoid the peak of the crowds, it is recommended to enter the garden between 8 am and 9:30 am. During this time, there are fewer people, and you can capture the feeling of having the cherry blossom avenue all to yourself.

I would like to call it the cherry blossom ceiling of Shanghai - Chenshan Botanical Garden

Although there are many places to enjoy cherry blossoms in Shanghai, the cherry blossom forest in Chenshan Botanical Garden will definitely amaze you. The sloping lawn with the color-healing white cherry blossoms is full of the gentleness of spring, and such a movie-like scene is unique in Shanghai. Shooting location: Right side of Gate No.1 On the right hand side is the Cherry Blossom Avenue, which are all slopes with a certain degree of inclination, very 'Chenshan', and it is still a tool to avoid people when there are many people. Going inside, there is a cherry blossom station near the aquatic plant garden. There is also a small cherry blossom forest near the station, next to the park wall on the side of Chenhua Road. There are fewer people here, but the ground is relatively flat. Near Gate No.1, there is also a cement white wall where you can sit on it, and you are surrounded by cherry blossoms.

The "Sillow Water Lily World" Goddess 2019 Water Lily Exhibition is being held at the Shanghai Chenshan Botanical Garden. This year's Water Lily Exhibition has seven exhibition areas, and more than 300 varieties are on display, which is very worth seeing! In particular, this year's special feature is that the Botanical Garden's own innovative "Lyqin" purple water lily variety is very amazing. The yellow scattering flower buds and the thick flower stalks combine the charm of "Goddess" and "female man", which is one of the best. If you like Monet's water lily series, you can feel a high degree of reduction here, and a quiet world of water lily is enough to make people think. There are also many beautiful black swan in the lake, which brings a lot of vitality to the world of water lily. I suggest you not to watch the water lily too early or too late, because the opening of the water lily is more willful, too early and too late to appreciate its fully open state, it must be just right! If you missed this year's water lily exhibition, it doesn't matter. There are many other beautiful plants in the botanical garden for viewing. For example, the net red powder will soon mature, and the National Day can be considered to play in the botanical garden.

Not Altay, but the lonely and romantic tree in Chenshan Botanical Garden.

It's not that Altay is unaffordable, but that Chenshan Botanical Garden is more cost-effective. The grass in Chenshan Botanical Garden is so beautiful, and the lonely tree is even more beautiful. The beautiful grass slope and the blue sky and white clouds make you feel like you are in a comic world. It's very artistic and fresh, and very photogenic. Photo tips: 1. It is recommended to go after 4 pm on a sunny day, when the light is softer. If there is wind, the fluttering clothes will interact well with the tree. 2. The photographer should take a low-angle shot from the bottom of the slope, avoiding the power lines behind, and leave enough space for the sky. The model should stand or sit by the tree, and the lonely story will be easy to capture. Specific location: "Lonely Tree" is on the left after entering Gate 1. Keep walking, and you will see a row of "Lonely Trees." If there are many people on the left slope, go to the right slope. There are trees on both slopes. Take a photo from the bottom of the slope, and the background will only be trees and the sky (there are planes in the sky from time to time, which adds to the feeling).
