Fuxing Park

Fuxing Park, Shanghai

Opened by the French in 1909 as the city's only formal French-style garden, this roughly 10-hectare park in the old concession pairs geometric flowerbeds, a lake, and fountains with a statue of Marx and Engels and crowds of dancers, chess players, and tai chi practitioners.
