Visiting the Grand View Garden, reminiscing about the human relationships in 'Dream of the Red Chamber'｜On the road trip

👍️Recommendation:
Shanghai Grand View Garden is restored according to the descriptions in Cao Xueqin's novel 'Dream of the Red Chamber'. The Jia family is a fictional character, and the Grand View Garden is like a dream.

However, the courtyards here are arranged in an orderly manner, almost identical to the scenes in the novel. So, while strolling through it, you can recall the human relationships depicted in the novel.

Of course, it would be more interesting if you have read the original work or watched the 1986 version of 'Dream of the Red Chamber'. Otherwise, you would just see the grandeur of a wealthy family's estate.

📅Travel Guide:
Take your parents to visit the garden. If your parents have read 'Dream of the Red Chamber', you must take them there. They will supplement the storylines for you, which is also a good opportunity to enhance your relationship with your parents.

The signs in the garden are very clear, and you can easily reach your desired destination by following them.

I accompanied my parents for a two-hour walk. Bring some snacks and water, as it is not easy to buy them inside.

I remember the ticket price is not expensive, 35 yuan per person, and there are discounts for the elderly.

🏨Accommodation Guide:
It is located in Qingpu, and you can stay in nearby homestays or hotels, depending on your budget.

💗Other tips:
As the first theme garden of 'Dream of the Red Chamber', you can bring the original work to take some photos.
