Location & How to Get There

The Wood Art Exhibition Hall sits inside the Guanfu Forest Cultural Site in Songjiang District, Shanghai. It’s a bit outside the city buzz but easy to reach. Take Metro Line 9 to Songjiang University Town Station, then hop on a taxi or bus (like Songjiang Tourism Line 1) for a 15-minute ride. If you’re driving, there’s a big parking lot right by the cultural site—just plug the address into your GPS!

Natural Scenery: A Peaceful Escape

Nestled next to a lake and ancient forest, the Wood Art Exhibition Hall feels like a hidden gem. Walk around, and you’ll see ducks swimming in the water and willow trees swaying in the wind. In spring, cherry blossoms bloom near the paths, and autumn paints the area with golden leaves. It’s perfect for a leisurely stroll or a picnic—bring your camera because the views are Instagram-worthy!

Cultural Treasures: All About Wood Craft

This place isn’t just about nature—it’s a love letter to traditional Chinese wood art. Inside the Wood Art Exhibition Hall, you’ll find carved sculptures, old tools, and even giant wooden structures from the Liangzhu Culture (a ancient civilization in Shanghai!). The best part? Many exhibits let you touch or try things, like testing how heavy those wooden drums are. Guides often share stories in simple English, so don’t hesitate to ask!

For Families & Couples: Fun for Everyone

The Wood Art Exhibition Hall is super family-friendly. Kids go crazy for the hands-on workshops where they can carve tiny wooden pendants (yes, it’s safe!). Couples might enjoy the romantic pavilions by the lake or the “wishing tree” where you tie ribbons. Even solo travelers will love the quiet vibe—perfect for journaling or people-watching.

Practical Tips: Food, Rest, and More

After exploring, head to the cultural site’s food street for snacks like dumplings or soup noodles. The Wood Art Exhibition Hall also has a small café with lake views. If you’re tired, there are shaded benches or pavilions to chill in. And don’t miss the evening light show—the hall’s wooden carvings glow under colorful lights!
