This was one of the first places I went after Shanghai’s long lockdown, and it felt amazing to just stretch my legs in the sunshine and surrounded by nature. There was an incredible vibe here too, the park was filled with life: people jogging, having picnics with friends, playing frisbee, bird-feeding sitting by the lake or lying on shaded grassy areas with a book. Spanning around 340 acres of land, Century Park makes for a great afternoon out on a sunny day. Whether you’re looking to go for a leisurely stroll and catch up with a friend, a snack-filled picnic, a long run or to admire the flora and fauna, there’s plenty of room and opportunity to do so. The park is split into several areas: a scenic lakeside area, a forest landscape area, a nature reserve, folk village and more. As per regulations following the latest lockdown in Shanghai, you will need to show a green QR code and a negative pcr result from the last 72 hours in order to get into the park.

Don't bother with travel home door also have a color called "autumn"... waited for a season, finally received Gaston Luga this white classic backpack, although Summer has passed. So, I put a heavy SLR and a 14-inch Mac in a backpack, releasing light hands to embrace the fall; so I have a favorite white backpack that can match the depth of autumn and winter. Color clothing; so, I can carry Gaston Luga on the horizon. . . Simple, stylish and generous Swedish classic bag adds a comfortable white to the autumn.

In Century Park, you can not only enjoy plum blossoms, but also picnics, cycling and other activities, as well as lakes for fishing. It is a good place for dogs and babies. There are more people on weekends. It is recommended to go to the morning or later, and you can't enter the park at around 6 pm, so don't be too late. I am willing to live next to the park. I have nothing to do. I walked in the park every three or five times. Is this a normal life, is it not the longing life of people who are on the road every day?

As spring tiptoes into Shanghai, Century Park transforms into a sakura sanctuary. With cherry trees in full bloom lining the walkways and framing the tranquil lake, it’s a scene straight out of a watercolor painting. Petals fall like soft confetti while joggers, families, and lovebirds bask under the blush-tinted canopy. A boat ride across the lake becomes a poetic journey, and every step reveals a new photo-worthy angle. Whether you’re sipping coffee by the water or lying under the trees with a book, this park offers the perfect blend of city buzz and cherry blossom bliss. #cherryblossom25

They're currently in full bloom, and honestly, their elegance outshines even the finest oil paintings. The silky petals and leaves have this ultra-smooth, refined vibe that’s super tricky to capture on camera 📷✨. The colors are incredibly graceful and just glide across the eye like silk — total visual luxury! The flowerbeds create amazing spots for portrait shots with great depth and texture. Have you managed to snap some yourself?

Hey, I’m Fer, and my day in Shanghai was pure magic! I kicked off at the Shanghai Expo, buzzing with colorful pavilions. My sparkly sneakers skipped through, sipping strawberry bubble tea, totally vibing. Mid-morning, I wandered to Century Park, where pink cherry blossoms had me spinning in awe—snapped a million pics! By afternoon, I hit the Bund, munching xiaolongbao and soaking in the old-school glam. The river sparkled, and I felt like I was in a movie. Night fell, and I stood on the Bund’s edge, staring at the Oriental Pearl Tower glowing like a dream. The skyline twinkled, and I whispered, “Shanghai, you’re unreal.” My heart was full, my glittery backpack heavier with souvenirs. This city wrapped me in its charm, and I’m already counting days to come back!

I went around trying out some ice cream that I'd seen a lot on Chinese social media and was curious about 💕 It's as realistic and cute as the picture! The menu had a variety of flowers for all seasons, so I chose cherry blossoms for spring and sunflowers for my favorite. Not only did I get flower ice cream, I also got a handwritten card, which was a nice keepsake. It's a sweets shop that also has candy with flowers trapped inside, so it's fun to look at 🍰✨ 📍Haoyuan Chestnut (Jinxiu Road Store) Shuji Avenue, Shuji Park, Gate 1, Pavilion 3 🚃Access Subway Line 2, Century Park or Shanghai Science and Technology Museum #Let's go to China #China Trip #Shanghai #Chinese Food #Chinese Food

The lakeside trail, viewing platform and large lawn provide citizens with an excellent place for leisure and exercise. The unique ecological environment attracts birds such as egrets to inhabit, presenting a beautiful picture of harmonious coexistence between man and nature. This modern urban park is not only a microcosm of Shanghai's international urban image, but also a quiet paradise for citizens to escape from the hustle and bustle.

The cherry blossoms are mostly found near the lake and open lawns, providing plenty of picturesque scenes for a relaxing walk. I went during a weekday morning and enjoyed a peaceful stroll beneath the soft petals while joggers and young families passed by. The park feels clean, modern, and safe — a good reflection of the city itself. I loved the way cherry blossoms framed the views of the distant city skyline, blending nature with urban energy. A perfect balance of quiet and connection with local life.

Delicate cherry petals float gracefully in the air, creating a magical scene that signals the arrival of cherry blossom season in Shanghai! From early to mid-April, the cherry blossoms in Shanghai reach their peak bloom. This is the perfect time to try beautiful flower-themed ice creams at Century Park, and of course, take an Instagram-worthy photo with them. There are six different flower options to choose from: sakura (cherry blossom) ice cream in both small and large versions, handmade hydrangeas, peony, sunflower, and camellia. For kids, there are also cartoon-themed ice creams like panda, lamb, piggy, Mr. Banana, and Little Elephant. We tried the sakura ice cream (39 RMB), which came with cute, edible pink flowers on top. We also had to try the sunflower ice cream (30 RMB), which featured a larger yellow edible flower on top. The flowers are edible, easy to bite, and made from sweet bean pulp. Both of our ice creams had a vanilla flavor. I really appreciated the plastic holder that came with the ice creams, so you don't have to worry about your hands getting dirty as the ice cream melts. The place was a bit crowded, and it's mostly a takeout shop, but fortunately, we didn't have to wait long for our ice creams to be ready. 📍好钰手作冰品(世纪公园店) 世纪公园内部706号 Nr 706, Century Park, Pudong New Area (5 min walk from main entrance of Century Park) — #shanghai #shanghailife #icecream #icecreamporn #sakura #sakuraicecream🌸

#springwander Spring in Shanghai is a season of renewal, where the city’s modern skyline meets the soft beauty of blooming flowers. As the air turns crisp and the days grow longer, the parks transform into peaceful retreats filled with cherry blossoms, magnolias, and the gentle hum of nature awakening. One of my favorite places to experience spring is Century Park, the largest park in Shanghai. Walking along the tree-lined paths, I was greeted by the sight of sakura trees in full bloom, their delicate pink petals fluttering in the breeze. The lake shimmered under the soft sunlight, while couples rowed boats across the tranquil waters. Families gathered for picnics, enjoying the fleeting beauty of the season. Not far away, Gucun Park was a dreamlike scene of cherry blossom tunnels, where every step felt like walking through a pink-hued wonderland. The petals rained down like confetti, and the air was filled with the subtle fragrance of spring. I couldn’t resist stopping for a matcha latte at a nearby café, sipping slowly as I soaked in the peaceful atmosphere. As the afternoon glow settled over Yuyuan Garden, the blend of traditional Chinese architecture and fresh spring blooms created an enchanting contrast. The koi ponds reflected bursts of pink and white, and the sound of a guzheng being played in the distance made the moment even more magical. Spring in Shanghai is more than just a season—it’s a feeling of serenity, renewal, and beauty in every corner. If you ever visit, take a moment to slow down and let the blossoms lead your way. #SpringInShanghai #BlossomsAndBreeze #CherryBlossomMagic #ShanghaiParks #NatureEscape #SereneMoments #SakuraSeason

I went to Century Park and I have to say that it was amazing during a sunny day. You can spend there 3 to 4 hours easily, the park is HUGE. My favorite things were hiring an electrical boat to tour around the big lake to enjoy the views and the Sakura Garden (but it was very crowded). You can also hire a bike to get around or check out their attractions park, which is great if you have kids. #centurypark #shanghai #attraction #travel
