Introduction of one-day tour in Sheshan National Forest Park

Sheshan National Forest Park is a quiet place hidden in the metropolis. It is called the back garden of Shanghai. It has a very high green plant coverage and produces a lot of oxygen every day. It is definitely an excellent place for leisure and entertainment. Here, I'd like to share with you the detailed strategy of one-day tour in Sheshan National Forest Park.

When it comes to Shanghai, the first thing people think of is the bustling metropolis and the three-piece Oriental Pearl in Lujiazui. They are tired of the busy life in the city. On weekends, they always want to climb mountains around and relax themselves. Last weekend, I accidentally learned that there are mountains to climb in Songjiang District of Shanghai, and it is also a national forest park. I set off at once and began my exploration in Sheshan National Forest Park.

Transportation to Sheshan National Forest Park:

Shanghai Stadium takes the 1B line, and the West Bus Station takes the Shanghai-Chen line and the Shanghai-Shekun line directly to Sheshan. There are direct buses to nanpu bridge, Shanghai Gymnasium, North Bus Station and Shanghai West Railway Station. Shanghai, Minhang, Songjiang and Pudong can get off at Sheshan Station by rail transit line 9, and Pudong Airport can take line 2 and transfer to line 9 at Century Avenue Station. There are direct buses to Sheshan in Songjiang, Qingpu, Jiading, Jinshan and Fengxian.

Self-driving route: Urban Area-Yan 'an Elevated Road-expressway Section of Shanghai-Chongqing (G50 Highway)-Zhongchun Road-Hu Song Highway-Shenzhuan Highway-Waiqingsong Highway.

The way I go to Sheshan is by car. It's only one hour from Minhang, and the traffic is very good. Because it is a suburb and there will be no traffic jams, Sheshan can be said to be one of the most convenient places to travel around Shanghai.

Introduction of one-day tour in Sheshan, Shanghai

I didn't leave until nearly noon. Sheshan National Forest Park tells about Happy Valley and Maya Paradise. If you have enough time during the short holiday, you can stay here for a few more days. When I arrived, it was already 1 pm.

Only when I came to the door did I know that Sheshan National Forest Park was divided into Dongsheshan Park and Xisheshan Park. Dongsheshan Garden is 74 meters above sea level. Although it is not high, it is not bad to climb mountains beyond mountain addiction. And because it has just rained, the air in Sheshan Mountain is fresher.

Entering the gate, there are not many tourists, mainly grandparents who come to play with their children, but few people are also an advantage. When I thought of climbing Huashan Mountain before, a bunch of people were stuck on the plank road and couldn't move, but when I got to the top of the mountain, I couldn't see anything in foggy weather. I was still soaked to the skin and had a bad experience.

Shambhala, a peerless secret place hidden in Yunnan and Tibet, is also an ideal pure land in the heart, but it is threatened by plastic garbage. It has come to Sheshan National Forest Park to explore, and has picked up a leaf, ready to start cleaning up the garbage. The road up the mountain is a long staircase with trees on both sides.

Halfway through, it began to rain. There are always typhoons in Shanghai recently, so it rains frequently. Showers may come several times a day, so I ran to a place with many trees to shelter from the rain. After the rain stopped, I continued to climb. Seen from above, the steps I just climbed are quite shocking.

I looked up and saw the lush trees, and my mood suddenly became better.

Little Wolf found a pile of fallen leaves, so Little Wolf planned to collect them and throw them into the trash can.

There are many grocery stores and coffee shops near the top of the mountain. When you are free, you can sit in the mountains and have a cup of coffee and listen to the birds singing. This experience of returning to nature is also very good. Of course, there is a night tour in the grocery store, selling instant noodles and rice, so you don't have to worry about being hungry when you climb to the top of the mountain.

From a viewing platform at the top of the mountain, you can see the residential areas and other mountains in the distance.

The map shows that I have reached the top of Dongshe Mountain, and then I will go down to Xishe Mountain.

There are many tourists on the top of the mountain.

There is also a cableway at the top of Dongshe Mountain. According to the tourists around, this cableway used to connect Dongshe Mountain and Xishe Mountain, and you can take the cableway directly to Xishe Mountain. But later, because there were too few tourists, it stopped, and this ropeway was transformed into a forest fire prevention observation deck. Unfortunately, the scenery of Sheshan is gone from the air. Fortunately, I brought the drone, so I put it on the drone to see what the panoramic view of Dongshe Mountain looks like.

Let's take a look at a big wave of high-definition aerial photos. This orange building is the fire watch tower of Dongshe Mountain. If it is open, tourists can go sightseeing. Behind Sheshan is a residential area, and there is a lake.

After the drone was released, it was close to 3 pm. I found the way down the mountain and started to set off for Xishe Mountain.

It takes about 15 minutes to get down from the top of Dongshe Mountain to the east gate of Xishe Mountain. If there is not enough time, it is recommended to visit Xishe Mountain, because there are many scenic spots in Xishe Mountain, unlike Dongshe Mountain, which actually has only a bunch of trees.

Entering from the east gate of the park, the first thing you see is Taoizeta. The Taoist Tower was built in the year of Taiping Xing in the Northern Song Dynasty (976-984). According to legend, there was a monk named Xiu who was building a house near Chaoyin Temple and was called a Taoist. He raised money to build the tower, and after the tower was completed, he set himself on fire, hence the name of repairing the island tower.

There is a famous Tiger Tree Pavilion near the tower. According to the Yun Zhi in the Southern Song Dynasty, in the second year of Taiping and Xingguo (978), a monk, De Cong, came here to participate in meditation on building houses and died in July of the first year of Tianxi in the Northern Song Dynasty (10 17). His two tigers also died at the same time, and they were buried next to the tower where the victim was performing. After that, two ginkgo trees grew in the area, and someone built a pavilion in it, named Tiger Tree Pavilion.

Pearl protection tower, commonly known as the "leaning tower", is located on the right side of the middle peak of Tianyu Mountain. It was built by Xu Wenquan, a native of Hengshan Township in the second year of Yuanfeng in the Northern Song Dynasty (1079). In the 27th year of Shaoxing in the Southern Song Dynasty (1 157), the five-color relic given by Emperor Gaozong was hidden in this tower, which is a treasure.

In the Qing Dynasty, the incense in tianmashan was still very prosperous. According to the book "Little Knowledge of Ming Zhai" written by the Qing People's Federation, in the fifty-third year of Qianlong (1788), firecrackers were set off to worship the gods in the temple, which caused a fire and burned the tower, escalator and floor. The tower ladder, waist eaves and flat halls were also destroyed, leaving only the brick tower body.

Xia was a native of Songjiang, and both father and son were leaders of the anti-Qing Dynasty in the Ming Dynasty. After the Qing army captured Nanjing in the second year of Qing Shunzhi (1645), Xia rose up in Songjiang and drowned himself. Xia Wanchun/Kloc-joined the army with his father at the age of 0/4, and continued to organize insurgents after his father died.

Martial arts participated in Taihu Lake and failed again. After Xia Wanchun was arrested, he was taken to Nanking and killed. He is only 17 years old. Xia and his son were buried in the park in Kunshan, surrounded by running water. Xia and the tomb were rebuilt on 1956, and Chen Yi wrote a tombstone on 19 1.

There are many scenic spots on the tourist map of Dongshe Mountain.

The road up the mountain is still a quiet path.

Going up again, you will reach a large parking lot observation deck, where you can see the panoramic view of Dongshe Mountain and its surroundings, and you can also see further places with binoculars.

Going further up, I saw one of the most surprising attractions in this trip: Sheshan Catholic Church entered the hall of Notre Dame de Kyonosuke, the full name of which is Sheshan Basilica, also known as Notre Dame de Sheshan.

Church, Sheshan Catholic Church, Notre Dame de Sheshan Hall, Notre Dame de Far East Hall. Located at the top of Sheshan Mountain, Songjiang District, China, it is Notre Dame de China, a famous Catholic pilgrimage site, with the same name as Notre Dame de Rhodes.

In 1942, this hall was canonized by Pope pope pius xii as a Pontifical B-class temple (small

Basilica) is the first temple in the Far East that was sealed by the Pope. On 1946, the Holy See gave Sheshan Stern and allowed it to be given to the Virgin Mary.

Zose) coronation. Sheshan is the only national Catholic pilgrimage center in China that is still active.

The church was founded by French missionaries in 187 1 and completed in 1935. As early as 1844, the French missionary Nan Gru came here to survey the terrain and prepare to build a house. Since then, religious facilities have been expanding. It combines a variety of architectural styles and adopts a four-beam structure without wood, nails, steel and beams, which is a model of asymmetry. Since the 1940s, it has been a world-famous Catholic shrine and the most important pilgrimage site for Catholics in China.

Unfortunately, because I came too late, the church has stopped opening, so I can't go in and have a look inside the church. It is said that the interior of the church is also beautifully decorated. Friends who want to see the interior of the church must come in the morning.

I wanted to go in and play, but I was stopped by the iron gate.

The Catholic church is integrated with the mountains, the outline of the municipality is natural, and the red hills and green buildings of the church set each other off. The whole building plane is Latin cross, which fully embodies the aesthetic feeling of right symmetry and asymmetry in architectural aesthetics. The church has 3,000 seats and can accommodate nearly 4,000 believers, with excellent acoustics.

The main altar of the main hall is made of marble, the windows of the main hall are inlaid with colored glass, and the top is covered with blue glazed tiles. The towering bell tower, with eight big clocks arranged according to certain notes, is a bronze statue of the Virgin Mary with a spire of 38 meters high and a height of 8 meters.

The virgin Mary holds a cross-shaped baby Jesus in the air, which means to welcome pilgrims from all over the world. 1942, the Pope named Sheshan Catholic Church as a "holy temple" and became a holy place for China Catholics to make pilgrimages.

There is a 147 bitter road pavilion on the winding path from the foot of the mountain to the top of the mountain. In each pavilion, there are reliefs of the crucifixion of Jesus, three sacred pavilions and a nave. The bitter road connects the bitter road pavilion, the holy pavilion, the middle hall and the church on the top of the mountain step by step. When believers make a pilgrimage to Sheshan, they climb the tortuous and bitter road step by step and experience the suffering of Jesus on behalf of others.

Sheshan Catholic Church was built on the top of Sheshan Mountain and was built by French missionaries. Its architectural characteristics are that the mountains and the overall design of the building are integrated, and the colors are harmonious and natural; The church combines Greek, Roman and Gothic architectural arts in one furnace, and some of them adopt China traditional techniques, which can be described as a combination of Chinese and Western; Macroscopically, it fully embodies the aesthetic principle of asymmetry in architectural symmetry; The church is magnificent and spacious, and the speeches in the hall can be amplified without loudspeakers, without echo interference.

Due to the grandeur of the Catholic Church in Sheshan, the Pope made it a "temple" in 1942. Believers make a pilgrimage to Sheshan, climb the stairs along the bitter road, appreciate Jesus' suffering experience for generations, and gain the sublimation of religious feelings. On the pilgrimage day in May every year, believers from all over the country go to the mountains for pilgrimage every day.

After coming down from the church, we arrived at the Astronomical Museum and Sheshan Observatory in Shanghai. Unfortunately, neither of them is open.

From the grand viewing platform, the beautiful scenery of Dongshe Mountain is unobstructed.

Finally, the day's exploration in Sheshan Forest Park is over. Finally, I put on the aerial photography of the Catholic church I took in Xishe Mountain. It's really beautiful. You can also come here when you are free.
