If you're looking for a serene escape from the hustle and bustle of city life, Dianshan Lake is the perfect destination! 🛶✨
Located just a short drive from Shanghai, this stunning lake offers crystal-clear waters and breathtaking natural scenery. Today, I had the pleasure of kayaking across its gentle waves, surrounded by lush greenery and the soothing sounds of nature. 🌿🌅
The experience was nothing short of magical. Whether you're a seasoned kayaker or a beginner, Dianshan Lake provides a peaceful and picturesque setting for everyone. The calm waters make it an ideal spot for a leisurely paddle, allowing you to fully immerse yourself in the tranquil beauty of the area.

1. Wear comfortable, water-resistant clothing.
2. Bring plenty of water and snacks.
3. Don't forget sunscreen and a hat to protect yourself from the sun.
4. Most importantly, relax and enjoy the moment!

Shanghai's Sunset has reached the next level
Went camping at Dianshan Lake 🏕️ over the weekend, and unexpectedly encountered a stunning sunset. The dense forest paired with the shimmering lake surface has given birth to the 'Shanghai version of Altay'!
Family, we are blessed again!
🌅 Set up small chairs and a folding table by the lake, eating chilled watermelon

Sinking into the orange water surface with the sunset, I don't need to say more about how pleasant it is
📍 Navigation: Dianshan Lake home to camp International Camping Site
(Keep driving near the Dianshan Lake camping site, the lakeside is beautiful!!)

📍Dianshan Lake Scenic Area
💰Open lake, free of charge
🚗Located at the junction of Qingpu, Shanghai and Kunshan, Jiangsu, it takes 1 hour to drive from downtown Shanghai. The Kunshan section is better for camping and photography. Public transportation is not very convenient.
🅿️: There are parking lots at various check-in points along the way, free parking within 15 minutes. On weekends and holidays, the Huanhu Avenue is a one-way street, and you can park on the roadside.
✅Cycling ✅Camping ✅Family-friendly ✅Pet-friendly
🔍Travel guide: True Love Pier ➡️ Rainbow Lake Shore ➡️ Mangang Waiting for the Wind ➡️ Wangjin Road Huanhu Avenue Camp ➡️ Half Marathon Lawn Camp ➡️ Huanhu Avenue
☑️True Love Pier: A holy place to watch the sunset, with a large heart sculpture. The pier's walkway also has heart symbols, making it super romantic for couples to stroll around❤️
☑️Rainbow Lake Shore👍: The rainbow road in the cover photo looks like a world from a Hayao Miyazaki manga. The blue sky paired with the rainbow road makes for perfect photos on sunny days📷 Full marks💯
☑️Mangang Waiting for the Wind👍: There is a large sea of flowers by the lake. Walking along the wooden path, there are two lonely trees at the end of the path, standing under the trees feels very cinematic.
☑️Wangjin Road & Half Marathon Lawn Camp: Two very popular camping spots. Some people set up their own tents, and there are also vendors renting canopy equipment. By around ten in the morning on weekends, lakeside spots are already filled, so campers should go early to secure a spot⛱
☑️Huanhu Avenue (near Changtaizhou Yi Hotel)👍: This area is more niche, with fewer campers. If you don't like noisy and crowded atmospheres, this place is recommended. Under the shade of trees by the lake, the light and shadow create a poetic scene. Sitting quietly with the breeze blowing and the sunlight shimmering on the water, it feels like being at Erhai Lake🌊
✨Unexpectedly, such a beautiful place is so close to Shanghai. If you don't want to travel far during the Dragon Boat Festival holiday and weekends, come and take a walk around Dianshan Lake❤️

There is a small fishing village in Qingpu, Shanghai
Next to the Baoguo Temple by the Dianshan Lake in Qingpu, Shanghai, there is a fishing village. Usually, some people would drive there to buy live fish, shrimp, etc., but recently, as the village's fame has grown, more people have been going there to take pictures of the sunset and check in. The village is small, but it is naturally simple and unsophisticated. The sunset by the lake is very beautiful.
It is recommended to drive there, navigate to Baoguo Temple, and park in the temple's parking lot. Walk along the small path on the right towards the lake for a few minutes. The best time to visit is before sunset in the evening.

Shanghai Venice·Zhujiajiao Ancient Town
⛳️Geographic location: Located in Qingpu District, Shanghai, adjacent to Dianshan Lake Scenic Area.
🚌Transportation: Accessible by self-driving or taking the subway line 17, etc.
💰Ticket information: Free admission for the main ticket (charges apply for some minor attractions, package tickets available).
*️⃣Historical evolution: Known as 'Zhu Creek' in elegance, it was once famous for its cloth industry in the Jiangnan area, and was praised as 'the quilt of the world'. By the late Ming and early Qing dynasties, the rice industry developed rapidly, leading to the prosperity of all trades, and there was a saying among the people that 'three Jing (Zhujing, Fengjing, Sijing) are not as good as one Jiao (Zhujiajiao)'.
⭐️Representative attractions:
• Fangsheng Bridge: Spanning the Caogang River, it was originally built during the Ming Wanli period and later rebuilt in the Qing dynasty. It is the longest, largest, and highest five-arched bridge in the Shanghai area, known as 'the first bridge in Shanghai'. The TV series 'Fan Hua' featured the scene where the character Bao Zong and Lingzi walk with an umbrella on this bridge.
• Yuanjin Zen Monastery: A famous ancient temple, housing the image of the Chenzhou Holy Mother.
• Daqing Post Office: Established in 1903, it is the old site of the Daqing Post Office preserved in East China, with a Qing dynasty cast dragon postbox outside the post office.
• Kezhi Garden: The largest manor-style garden architecture in Zhujiajiao, with white walls, green tiles, continuous arches, and corridors forming a beautiful scene. The original owner was Ma Wenqing, hence commonly known as 'Ma's Garden'. 'Kezhi' implies 'not forgetting to cultivate while studying'.
• North Street: The first Ming and Qing street in Shanghai, where you can experience the prosperity of 'three miles of long street, a thousand shops', and also check in at the century-old ginkgo.
⭐️Local delicacies: Grandma's zongzi, braised pork, sweet glutinous sugar lotus root, trotters, and gorgon fruit cake, etc. (Personal opinion: Zhujiajiao Grandma's zongzi is famous far and wide, with many shops selling Grandma's zongzi, including Zhang Grandma, Li Grandma, Wang Grandma, etc. Spent 8 yuan to try a Grandma's meat zongzi, and it tasted similar to the zongzi made at home during the Dragon Boat Festival haha, no offense if you don't like it🚫)
tips: Personally, I think Zhujiajiao has an overly commercial atmosphere during the day, and I suggest visiting after 7 or 8 pm when the shops close.
As night falls, stroll on the bluestone roads, with lights reflecting off each other, feeling the beauty of 'small bridges, flowing water, and households', with winding paths leading to secluded spots, serene and quaint.

Slow life camping around Shanghai during the holiday night
On the first day of the holiday, I joined a friend's camping party hehe
Two big tents, two canopies, tables and chairs, pots and pans, oil, salt, soy sauce, vinegar, a small refrigerator and various ingredients
It took 3 hours for two girls to set up
We had to find a good place to camp the night before
The next day, we solved the problem of bathing and going to the toilet in a nearby homestay
Even in autumn, we still need to pay attention to mosquito prevention in the wild
Every seemingly exquisite camping has some behind-the-scenes stories...
However, after these "hard preparations", I heard that
The stars seen in the tent at night are especially many and bright

Regret comes from here, there is actually a hidden green field. Found a treasure camping site right by Dianshan Lake! Large green shades and a line of lake view, it is simply a summer resort. There are so many water games that you can play with your friends for a whole day!
√The trees are lush and full of vitality, the venue is very open, children can enjoy leisure and play, adults can sit under the sky and eat barbecue and play board games, spend a comfortable time
√Facing Dianshan Lake, a line of lake view is in sight, barbecue and camping equipment are all available, just need to bring people, you can experience the fun of camping and barbecue outside, very suitable for weekend outings
√Kayaking, water paddle hands are super expected, summer is to play with water! After a day, don't relax too much, it's fun and decompresses, it's super comfortable~
√It's too romantic to have a bonfire party by the lake, there are fairy sticks and bullhorn lights, and then a little wine to get drunk...
