Okay, I'm ready for the Chinese title.
-
The lanterns are still up over there. They're lit at night, and it's free to visit.
-
Question: Will I still need a down jacket if I visit Shanghai in mid-March?
-
You should probably pack a light one (a fleece jacket would also work). The weather around mid-March can be tricky – warm one day, surprisingly cold the next. It's hard to say for sure.
-
Friendly tip: go in the evening.
-
They're likely referring to the Yuyuan Garden proper, which isn't open at night.
-
Honestly, it's pretty average, but there aren't many places like it left in Shanghai. It's mostly geared towards tourists/foreigners. If you want to see truly great gardens, you should go to Suzhou.
-
The nearby attractions in the Jiangsu-Zhejiang-Shanghai region are still worth checking out.
-
I went yesterday. It was raining, so I sat in a pavilion listening to some music for a while. It was actually quite a nice experience.
-
Nice, and the photos are well taken too.
-
To really get the best feel and views of Yuyuan Garden, you need to go to the second floor.
-
Nice shots!
-
To be honest, Yuyuan Garden managed this way isn't very enjoyable. You're better off finding a small teahouse nearby, enjoying some tea, and taking a few photos there. The garden itself is just too crowded.
-
Excuse me, is the teahouse located outside the main scenic area?
-
The real beauty of Shanghai isn't found in the downtown area.
-
Where is this?
