This might be one of the most futuristic greenhouses weโve ever visited ๐ฟ๐คฏ
๐The Shanghai Greenhouse Garden
Itโs inside the Shanghai Expo Culture Park and feels more like walking through a sci-fi movie than a botanical garden. There are 3 huge themed halls, tropical plants, waterfalls, immersive spaces and some seriously impressive architecture. ๐ด๐๏ธ
๐ฐ PRICE: Around ยฅ68โ98 (roughly $10โ15 USD), depending on the ticket/time. Prices can vary, so check when booking.
โฐ OPEN: TuesdayโSunday, 9amโ9pm
โ Closed Mondays
๐ HOW TO GET THERE: Take Metro Line 7 to Houtan Station, Exit 4, then itโs around a 5โ10 minute walk.
๐ก OUR TIP: Go as close to opening as possible if you want photos without huge crowds. It takes around 1โ3 hours to properly explore, and apparently the atmosphere changes completely in the evening when the lights come on. โจ
Itโs also right inside the huge Expo Culture Park, so you can easily combine it with a walk around the park and make a few hours of it.
Honestly, if youโre looking for something a little different from the usual Shanghai tourist spots, save this one! ๐
