Shanghai Chenshan Botanical Garden is a fabulous destination for a getaway at any time. The natural landscape there is scenic with the landscape boasting mountains, water, thick trees, a multitude of flower species, and adorable animals, and the fun facilities are well-equipped. In early April the more than 300 Cerasus yedoensis cherry trees, and also some other varieties of cherry trees on the 800-meter-long passageway, become the highlight of the scenic spot.
