Fuxing Park is the only garden in Shanghai that retains its classical French style and is a masterpiece of the fusion of Chinese and Western garden culture in modern Shanghai. The original French garden occupied only the central portion of the current Fuxing Park and was relatively small. Since the park was primarily designed and constructed by the French, its overall style and many of its layouts bear a European influence. Its most notable feature is its centrally symmetrical layout, a grid-like pattern, and its prominent features include flowers, trees, pavilions, and ponds.
The Rose Garden, located in front of the complex building in the northwest of the garden, covers an area of 2,741 square meters. The garden is oval in shape, with a 65-square-meter circular pool in its center. In 1988, a fountain and a stainless steel sculpture of a goose girl were added to the pool, designed by the Shanghai Oil Painting and Sculpture Studio. Pathways divide the fountain into four sections, each paved with lawn. Flower beds contain thousands of roses, and 12 Sophora japonica trees are planted around them. Tall trees such as Sophora japonica, Liquidambar formosana, Cypress, and Sapium sebiferum are planted along the paths around the garden, creating a tranquil and tranquil area.
It’s not a big park, but it’s located in a prime location. If you come to Huaihai Road in Shanghai, you will definitely come here.
One of Shanghai's oldest parks, a great place in the city center
I accidentally walked into this park and saw local elderly people playing saxophone. It was a good place to experience the life of locals.
I like Fuxing Park. I can’t explain why, but I just like it.
Fuxing Park is located at No. 105 Yandang Road, Shanghai. It is adjacent to Chongqing South Road in the east, Fuxing Middle Road in the south, Sinan Road in the west, and the Science Hall in the north.
Fuxing Park is an old park in Shanghai. It is small and suitable for leisure.
This place condenses a part of Shanghai's history. As a local, I think it is worth visiting.
Fuxing Park, located at the northwest corner of Fuxing Middle Road and Chongqing Road, covers a large area and has pavilions, towers, bridges and flowing water. After becoming free, it has become a leisure place for middle-aged and elderly people.
Close to Shanghai Xintiandi, the park is not big but very beautiful.
I went to Fuxing Park because I got a voice guide app. There are very few attractions, but Fuxing Park is one of them.
So, after visiting the Sinan Guild Hall, I took a walk around.
The big lawn is nice, but the other flowers and plants don't seem to be in season, so there's nothing much to see.
Most of the people here are Shanghai people taking a morning walk and doing exercises. I heard from a beekeeper that you can feed pigeons here, but I looked around but didn't see any pigeons.
There are vast expanses of plane trees. Their trunks are strong and sturdy. They are full of strength. I feel their tenacious vitality. I love them so much.
Fuxing Park is the only French classical-style park in Shanghai. The park itself is a story, witnessing the historical changes of Shanghai in the past.
It's quite pleasant to enjoy the cool air here on a cool evening on the side of Sinan Road.
This park is quite complete, with mountains, water, woods, and a children's playground. There are even bumper cars inside, which last 15 to 3 minutes at a time. Most of the people there are adults with their children.
Fuxing Park, formerly known as Gujiazhai Park, is one of the earliest parks in Shanghai. It is the only garden that retains the French classical style and is also a masterpiece of the fusion of Chinese and Western garden culture in modern Shanghai.
This is a park with a lot of stories and history, and it is also very beautiful. If you are interested, you can ask Baidu.
Throughout Shanghai's turbulent history, Fuxing Park has changed its name three times. Originally known as "Gujiazhai Park," it became "French Park" during the French garrison period, then "Daxing Park" under the control of the Japanese puppet government, and finally, after the victory of the Anti-Japanese War in 1945, it was renamed "Fuxing Park."
Fuxing Park has undergone over a century of transformation. The sycamore trees planted there have grown into a majestic forest. Fuxing Park has undergone further renovations, preserving and enhancing its historical and cultural landscapes. Wandering through the park, one can still deeply experience the charm and spirit of a French garden.
There are 100-year-old camphor and ginkgo trees in Fuxing Park. Of course, there are a large number of plane trees planted in this area, both in the park and on the roadside. The large plane trees are probably a hundred years old. The large lawn should be extremely luxurious in this prime location. Several waves of square dance music floated in the park. Looking up at the night sky, the moon was half high in the sky, and low-lying thin clouds like silk paper drifted quickly from southeast to northwest. Thick clouds in the high altitude slowly moved from west to east across the moon's shadow, and shuttled with low-lying thin clouds. You have to look carefully to see a few twinkling stars.
This French-style garden is nestled in the heart of the city. I visited in early winter, with fallen leaves and orange maple trees covering the ground. Spring and summer are sure to be even more romantic. The park has four entrances, allowing you to enter through one, enjoying the scenery and breathing in the fresh air as you exit. Many elderly people do morning exercises here, and they're quite entertaining. There's a children's playground in the park, with facilities similar to those we had as children, but the kids loved it. There's a cafe in a white building at the Gaolan Road exit. It's quite charming, and at least warm enough for a relaxing break in the winter.
The park is not big, suitable for a walk after dinner, the environment is very good
A group of retired grandmas and aunts are practicing chorus. It is also a place for local people to relax and have fun.
Fuxing Park is located at 105 Yandang Road. It's a beautiful green space in the heart of the city. It's a beautiful French-style park. Admission is free, and the environment is pleasant and the air is fresh, making it a great place for a stroll.
There are quite a lot of middle-aged and elderly people relaxing in the Citizen Park.
The park is not big, but it is nice to walk around and take your children here to fly kites.
A very quiet park in a bustling city, filled with a strong French style.
The retro and romantic park, with its layout and plants, all exudes a strong French style.
It's a very big park. It's great to have such a park in Shanghai where prices are very high.
Fuxing Park was once called the French Park, but now it hardly has any French flavor. However, as a public park, it is a benefit to nearby residents.
It is hard to imagine that there is such a large park in the center of Shanghai. Not many outsiders go there, but it is a good place for morning exercises for nearby residents.
It is very close to the upscale Sinan Road and is also the only French classical-style park in Shanghai.
A quiet place in the bustling city, a park with both urban and atmospheric atmosphere
A park in the city center, where you can take your baby to have some fun after shopping
This is a central park on Fuxi Middle Road. The environment is wonderful, especially the pavilion at the entrance, where an 85-year-old man dances beautifully. Inside, you can also see many local elderly people chatting, singing, dancing, and writing calligraphy together, giving you a glimpse into the local culture.
The park is not big, but the location is very good. Many people come here for an outing.
There are only three rides in the children's park that are charged: bumper cars for 20 yuan, electric horses for 15 yuan, and these two can be accompanied by an adult for 3 minutes. The small train is 15 yuan, and adults have to pay. However, the children are older and the seats are relatively small, so adults feel very crowded.
There were quite a few people coming to take pictures, and it took more than an hour to walk around.
There is a big lawn, many middle-aged and elderly people who love dancing, as well as foreigners. There is also a playground. It is a good place to go.
Located in the former Luwan District, now Huangpu District, this park is a favorite of old Shanghai residents.
Although the park is not big, it is quiet. It is really nice to have such a green space in the center of Huangpu City. There are usually few people and the wisteria flowers are blooming beautifully.
Turn right from the Science Hall and you'll find Fuxing Park, on Yandang Road. The park isn't very large, but it's packed with elderly people and the music is quite loud. The lawns are fenced off, and there aren't many beautiful flowers or plants. The egg waffles at the entrance to Yandang Road are delicious, crispy on the outside and tender on the inside. Highly recommended!
The environment is very good and you can go for a walk in the sun for an afternoon
Fuxing Park's greenery is similar to that of Zhongshan Park. It's not large, but boasts abundant vegetation. It's open to the public free of charge and is a great place to relax after a meal if you live nearby.
The rich French atmosphere is perfectly suited to Fuxing Park, a place with over a century of history. This area was once the French Concession, and when the French created Fuxing Park, they brought the romance of Paris to the then-Oriental Paris. French architectural styles can be seen everywhere, from the Grand Corridor to the Rose Garden and the Sunken Flower Beds, all of which are unique. The statue of Marx and Engels is also a major attraction in Fuxing Park. The two foreigners could not have imagined that their ideas would influence the entire world. Fuxing Park is now free to the public, and nearby residents are often seen exercising and relaxing here. Some even write calligraphy with large brushes, a true fusion of Chinese and Western elements!
It's a very interesting park. I walked around it with my bestie.
When I was little, I lived near Fuxing Park. My grandfather would often take my brother and me there in a stroller. We could go to the amusement park during the day or enjoy the cool breeze in the summer evenings. Later, I learned it was a French-style park, boasting Shanghai's first sunken square and many majestic, towering French plane trees. When I was writing Chinese essays, our teacher would take us there to observe the plane trees while explaining them. Later, as the city underwent renovations, a section of Fuxing Park was taken over by roadwork, and the Qiangui KTV at the back entrance of the park became incredibly popular. But my fondest memory remains of Fuxing Park as a child.
It’s great to have such a quiet park in the bustling city!
Fuxing Park—one of the city's largest central green spaces! In the morning, walking along the cobblestone paths, facing the rising sun and gazing at the surrounding scenery, is a true pleasure in urban life!
Located on Fuxing Road, close to the bustling Huaihai Middle Road, the park is small but very beautiful.
Located in the city, it is a small park, mainly a place for surrounding residents to exercise and rest.
Maybe it was the wrong season and it wasn't as good as I imagined, but as a city center, it is not easy to have such a place for citizens to gather.

Fuxing Park is small, like a garden in the middle of a street. Don't think of it as a tourist attraction; it's a nice place for a morning stroll.
It's an old park, located in the downtown area, and it's nice to stroll around.
As a free park, it is very good. It also has French garden style. It can be played with Sinan Road and Shikumen. However, I feel that they lack characteristics. If you pass by, you can visit it. It is not worth coming here specifically.
I went to Fuxing Park on weekends. There were many elderly people relaxing in the park, doing ballroom dancing, saxophone, Tai Chi, singing, etc. It is a good place for retired people.
The memories of all the children in Luwan District, the French-style park is very fashionable and a great place to take wedding photos
I love Fuxing Park because I grew up on Yandang Road and kept going back. There's a statue of Marx and Engels there, and I always come there for the oath-taking ceremony. Although Fuxing Park is small, it has large lawns, a large lake, rockery, a playground, and more. Later, a bar, PARK97, and a cash box were added.
Subway Line 1 Huangpi South Road or Shaanxi South Road
The park is very large and there is also a children's playground
No admission fee
This side of Fuxing Park is the former French Concession, and there are still many buildings from the French Concession era. There are very few tourists, so I prefer this side.
The location is good; I went there all the time when I was a kid;~
This is a free park on Yandang Road, right off Huaihai Road and close to Tianzifang. It offers a prime location, yet offers tranquility amidst the bustle. It boasts lush vegetation and a wide variety of flowers and plants, and boasts a history of over 100 years. Whenever I pass by Yandang Road, I always make a point of stopping by. The plane trees here are stunningly beautiful in autumn, making for excellent photo opportunities.
It is a rare combination of "old" and relatively "open" feeling. There are not many people, so you can take a look.
Fuxing Park, located next to the Yanzhong Greenbelt, looks incredibly old, with a European-style aesthetic that makes for beautiful photos. On a nice day, the park's warm colors create a soothing atmosphere. Being in the city center, it's quite crowded. The free park is a great place to relax after a long walk. The greenery is beautiful, with a rose garden, a children's playground, a large lawn, sculptures, and more. However, the so-called cherry blossom forest only has four trees, which I found quite impressive. There's also a parking lot next to the park.
It's a very leisurely and beautiful park, and the rose garden inside is very beautiful.
Here, I carry my childhood memories
My home was not far from here.
The greatest joy at that time was probably sliding down the slide in the children's playground.
Then I'll have some ice cream or something with my mom.
After that, I grew up
We swore an oath under Marx and Engels and joined the Young Pioneers
We've performed here before, the drum and bugle corps, the trumpet
After changing primary schools, I started to focus more on playing.
In the afternoon, I will go out with my friends to play, catch fish and so on.
The most memorable thing I remember was that it was freezing cold and the river in Fuxing Park was frozen.
My classmate went up to skate, and as you can imagine, he almost fell into the river...
Gradually, fewer people come here.
At most, I would go to the nearby cash box to sing.
Now it has become my mother's treasure land
In the morning, go sing, dance, sword dance, etc.
In the past, if you wanted to find an old man or old lady, you would go to Fuxing Park. ^_^
There are occasional fashion shows and music festivals here.
The surrounding bars also give this place a different flavor
Anyway, it's a free attraction. You can go in and take a look around if you have time. It's like a park.
French-style park with a large lawn for children to play. Although it has been modified, most of the original design has been retained.
Located in the city center, but quiet
A place for citizens to relax, play ball and exercise, and there is also a smaller children's playground
Fuxing Park is located at 105 Yandang Road, Shanghai. It borders Chongqing South Road to the east, Fuxing Middle Road to the south, Sinan Road to the west, and the Science Hall to the north. The park's landscaping is exceptional, with a blanket of greenery, making it more pleasing to the eye than many other parks in Beijing. The park features flower beds, a central fountain, a rockery area, a lotus pond, a stream, winding paths, and a large lawn. It blends Chinese and Western styles, highlighting French formal gardening. The sunken flower beds, utilizing the height difference to elevate the viewpoint and provide a better bird's-eye view, are a key feature of the park. Admission is free, and every morning a senior choir practices in the pavilion adjacent to the lawn. Many other people also engage in morning exercises, creating a refreshing and refreshing atmosphere.
It's a big park. When the weather is good, there are a lot of people here, and some people come here to fly kites... It's a place to relax and unwind.
A famous park in the center of Shanghai. You can see many foreigners coming here to play. There is also a small white building nearby - Miss Zhao Si's apartment.
Located in Luwan District, I remember the first attraction after the bus turned was Fuxing Park, which had a strong atmosphere of life.
A very small park, said to be in French style. Looking around, it seems that the fountain has a bit of French style. There are many elderly people strolling around, which is very leisurely.
This generation of Fuxing Park is very fashionable, and a visit here allows you to experience the elegance of old Shanghai.
The four iron gates of the rose garden should be covered with the fragrance of flowers during the flowering season, but now only green leaves are left.
The park is so big that we didn’t finish visiting it all. The sun had just come out, so we took a short rest on a bench in the rose garden. However, it was covered by clouds in less than ten minutes.
In this park, it seems that everyone is absorbed in their own work. The aunties wearing scarves and taking photos often steal the show. The old man sitting in a daze on the chair seems to have squinted his eyes all afternoon, and occasionally a photographer passes by and they smile at each other.
