Culture Shanghai
Specialist gardens, plant collections and the landscape around Chenshan make a substantial green escape in Songjiang.
The garden combines plant conservation with areas devoted to aquatic, medicinal and regional flora, alongside the distinctive former quarry landscape. It is large enough to reward choosing a route instead of trying to see every section in one hurried circuit. Check the seasonal highlights, ticket arrangements and weather before travelling. The journey from central Shanghai is part of the day, so leave time for the grounds themselves.
