Shangluo Danjiang Park

　　    Danjiang Park was officially completed in September 2010, covering a total area of 641,000 square meters. It recreates the historical landscape of Shangzhou where “the Dan River encircles the city,” forming a new urban scene where the Dan River serves as a skirt, the long embankment as a belt, white jade as railings, pebbles as pathways, blooming flowers in three seasons, and evergreen foliage all year round.

　　    Strolling through the park, you’ll find vast open squares, winding paths leading to serene spots, pavilions and corridors meandering through lush greenery, bursts of laughter and floral fragrance, quaint bridges over flowing streams, and ancient poetry and prose illustrated with images that speak volumes of Shangzhou’s beauty. Trees and flowers decorate the park exquisitely. Elders dance, practice swordplay, perform tai chi, sing opera, and discuss melodies; youths take leisurely walks, admire the flowers, have heartfelt conversations, or immerse themselves in books; children laugh, play, and chase one another — all enjoying themselves with great delight.
