Always crowded. Such a happening place with shops of food and souvenirs. Yu Garden is here. City of God temple is nextdoor. There’s a fantastic tea house here. Must see for yourself!

Such a beautiful place to explore in the morning, and even fit in an authentic breakfast at a quaint little restaurant before entering the gardens! Food was yum and not over-priced! It was quite a chilly morning, so their onion pancakes sure hit the spot! Loved the experience!

We loved it here, you only need an hour or so if you just want to soak up the atmosphere but there is also great shopping and restaurants too. You can see turtles in the pond. The only part of Shanghai where we felt we were in China of old.
