#qingpu

lovely daytrip from shanghai to the grand view garden of qingpu.

this beautiful, tranquil garden is modeled from the scenes of one of china’s greatest romantic novels: “Dream of the Red Chamber”, also called “The Story of the Stone” the tale of a noble family that falls from grace was written in the middle of the 18th century during the qing dynasty and is one of china's four great classical novels. at least 14 cinematic adaptions and 10 TV-series based on this family saga full of poignant detail of the social, cultural and spiritual life of its time have been produced thus far. due its huge popularity over generations the grand view garden quickly became one of the most popular scenic spots in the greater shanghai area. thousands of devoted readers flock to the garden`s pavillions, lodges, courtyards and waterways each year to wander through the saga`s main character`s homes and breathe life into the complex story. visitors can even hire costumes, pose with wax figures and try our archery to fully immerse into the story. but even if you never read the book, these gorgeously landscaped garden right at the shores of dianshan lake will enchant you, i promise <3
