7 Gardens in Puxi (Downtown Shanghai) That You Shouldn't Miss
The largest city in China is also its most cosmopolitan, offering visitors a chance to experience the past, present, and future all at once. The Huangpu River splits Shanghai into two districts: Pudong and Puxi. The Pudong skyline looks like it was ripped from the Jetsons, with the bulbous Oriental Pearl TV and Radio Tower looking a bit like a two headed lollipop. On the Puxi side, you can walk the Bund riverside district to get a taste of old Shanghai.

We took the metro on line 3 and got off at Shilong Road station. Then it's another 5 min walk to the Botanical garden. The Shanghai Botanical Garden is hugh and is probably one of the largest botanical garden in China. There was a flower expo going on when we visited. Beautiful flowers in full bloom were everywhere. We spent at least half a day here. Advisable to bring a picnic basket, hat/umbrella and lots of water. Wear comfortable shoes. This is probably our favorite botanical garden in China.
