Qiuxia Garden

Qiuxia Garden contains a large pond beneath willow trees, multiple pavilions, bamboo thickets, white stone walls, and shaped rocks following Chinese garden traditions.

Constructed between 1505 and 1526, this garden belonged to Ming Dynasty Minister of Works Gong Hong and remains the oldest of Shanghai's five classical gardens.

The garden entrance features an old temple with red lanterns, ceramic statues, and burning incense, reflecting traditional Chinese architectural and spiritual elements.

Visitors can reach the garden by taking Metro Line 11 to Jiading Beizhan station, then Bus 1 to Jiading TCM Hospital Station, or by taxi from central Shanghai.

The garden houses numerous historical couplets and inscriptions created by notable figures, preserving literary and artistic expressions from different periods.
