Gongqing Forest Park
Gongqing Forest Park is a large forest park in Yangpu District, the biggest woodland park in Shanghai's inner city, with close to 200,000 trees across a dozen landscaped zones. It is one of the city's finest places for autumn colour: maples, ginkgo, sweetgum and dawn-redwood turn gold and rust from mid-November into early December, with the redwoods reflecting in the park's lake. Entry is around 15 yuan (about USD 2) per adult, free for over-65s. Boating, a little forest train and barbecue areas make it an easy half-day out for families and couples.
