Let’s start a stroll along the Shanghai River
Let’s go in together today
Maohejing, Qingpu District
In the soft waves of the water system surrounding Qingpu City, Maohejing, a tributary of the Dahe River, winds eastward like an emerald ribbon and finally merges into Dongdaying Port.
After long-term and effective management, this water area has been revitalized. As the breeze blows, sparkling waves appear on the river surface, like thousands of broken silver scattered, reflecting the lush green shade on both sides. Occasionally, egrets pass by, and the tips of their wings are lightly touched, creating circles of poetic ripples. The colorful vegetation on the river bank complements the patchwork landscape sketches, and the fluttering figures of migratory birds add a vivid touch to this ecological picture.
In the triangular land where Maohejing River and Shangda River meet, the Shengli River is like a jasper comb, “cutting” out a paradise – Changdao Park.
This “water oasis” surrounded by three rivers is like a pearl floating on the blue waves. It is connected by the three bridges of “Yunchuan”, “Yunjin” and “Pingqiao Yunxi”, connecting the hustle and bustle of the city with the tranquility of nature. As the finishing touch of Qingpu City-Ring Water Park, Changdao Park takes “artistic residence and dynamic life” as its soul and integrates ecological aesthetics into every inch of space.
Children’s laughter ripples among the sand castles and swings, young people sweat on the basketball court and badminton court, cyclists chase the wind and shadows along the winding trail, and birds fly across the water, creating a dynamic ink painting.
Walking along the banks of Maohejing, various pleasant life scenes come into view: the cats in the community are curious and want to be intimate with you; the grandfather and uncle leisurely walk the dog on the rope; the aunts are all full of energy, dancing in the square with light steps… The laughter and laughter are intertwined here, the rhythm is slow, and the atmosphere of life is everywhere.
The water system surrounding the city of Qingpu uses clear water as the pen and green shade as the ink. On the bank of Maohejing, a modern Taoyuan scene is painted where “you can see the green through the window and go out into the garden”. Here, every drop of water reflects the ideal of harmonious coexistence between man and nature, and every inch of land reflects the city’s eternal yearning for a better life.
