Introduction East Suburb Park is located on the north side of Huangpu Avenue. It covers an area of 75 hectares. Established in 1928, it was originally the Guangzhou Government Forest Farm (also known as the Stone Tablet Forest Farm). In 1933, it was renamed Zhongshan Park in honor of Sun Yat-sen. After the liberation of Guangzhou, from August 1950 to the end of 1953, the government carried out large-scale afforestation in the park and divided it into the Zhongshan Forest Farm and the Zhongshan Orchard Farm. In 1957, it was renamed Forest Park, and in 1960, it became East Suburb Park. The tomb of national hero Deng Shichang is located here. Due to its long history and suburban location, the park is shaded by lush trees, boasts beautiful scenery, and enjoys exceptionally fresh air. The park is home to over 100 species of plants, including trees, shrubs, flowers, palms, and bamboo, as well as more than 20 century-old trees and the park’s unique over 10,000 square meters of underwater forest, which adds a magical atmosphere to the park.
