Fuxing Park
Fuxing Park has quite the history. It was a Ming Dynasty private garden until the French took it over in 1909. Then came the Japanese occupation of Shanghai during World War II until the early 1950s, after which the park again became Chinese. Today, the park is a vibrant gathering spot, wide open to the public. No matter the season, it's full of locals playing mah-jong, practicing tai chi, writing calligraphy, and flying kites amid the sycamore trees. Come early on a weekday morning to see the dancers, then walk over to the Mattress flower beds.More Recommendations

Waltzing in the Park
Drop into Fuxing Park in late afternoon or early evening to catch couples like these stride and twirl to the sounds of a portable speaker. Who needs a ballroom when you have a whole park to waltz through?
