Lakes, beaches, marshes, and islands crisscross, forming a diverse ecosystem of wetlands, lakes, rivers, and forests. Qingxi Suburban Park is the only suburban park in Shanghai that features wetlands. The core of Qingxi Suburban Park is its unique wetland ecosystem. The rivers flow in all directions, and the reeds sway, with over 60 mu of water forests, which are unique to Shanghai and renowned as a spectacle of pond cypress. In spring, wildflowers bloom by the river, and in winter, the wetland is covered in thin fog, resembling an ink painting of the Jiangnan region. The lakes and wetlands in the park provide habitats for numerous bird species, attracting wildlife enthusiasts and photographers to come and explore.

With a gentle breeze brushing against the face, reeds swaying around, and occasional waterbirds gliding overhead, one can feel an intimate connection with nature. In autumn and winter, the arrival of migratory birds brings vitality to this wetland, making it a paradise for birdwatchers. In Qingxi Suburban Park, visitors can explore nature in a low-carbon and green way. The lakeside cycling path and forest trails wind through the vegetation, offering routes for both leisurely strolls and fast-paced rides. Cycling along the fields and riverside, away from the sight of traffic and high-rise buildings, allows one to completely relax.

Hiking enthusiasts can explore the forest trails within the park and experience the beauty of nature changing with the seasons. Spring wildflowers adorn the roadside, summer shades shield from the scorching sun, autumn golden leaves dance in the wind, and the barren trees and shallow water in winter create a sense of tranquility.

In addition, the park occasionally hosts activities related to nature and tradition, such as rural markets and handicraft experiences. These activities allow people to enjoy nature while also participating in the preservation and inheritance of traditional culture. Locally grown organic vegetables and handmade products have become highlights that attract visitors.
