Picnic on a Sunny Afternoon

Shanghai Century Park, like a green poetic line intending to temporarily "mute" the city, stretches out amidst the steel and glass of Pudong. It doesn't rely on dramatic rocks or exotic waters to captivate visitors but wins hearts with its "peaceful expansiveness": lawns as vast as the sea, pathways like veins, and time itself seems to slow down here.
I particularly love the breeze by the central lake. It gently lifts children's kites while softly flipping the pages of readers' books. This breeze seems to understand people's hearts and remembers every reason why visitors come here to unwind. The beauty of Century Park lies in its identity as "the least hurried place in Shanghai"—a space for the soul to take a deep breath in a fast-paced city. It is not an escape from modernity but the gentlest proposal for a dialogue between modern people and nature.
