Gumei Park

THE long-awaited Gumei Park, a wetland park in the shape of a butterfly that covers about 100,000 square meters, recently opened to the public.

Located in the Wanyuan A street block, the park is surrounded by Gudai Road to the south, Pingji Road to the north, Hechuan Road to the west and Wanyuan Road to the east. Of its 100,000-square-meter area, 30,844 square meters are water. Construction of the park started in March 2019.

Divided into six sections, including wetland preservation, forest, cultural display and sports areas, the park features wetland plants, and its huge aquatic area in the center has attracted birds like egrets, mandarin ducks and wild ducks.

The park caters to people of different age groups with different interests. Prior to construction, landscape architects referred to Xujiahui Park, Jing’an Park, Minhang Sports Park and Lujiazui Greenland to ensure Gumei Park would be a sustainable public space.

The park is also accommodating to disabled people in wheelchairs.

The biggest park in the Gumei Road Subdistrict, the park serves its surrounding 100,000 residents and has a capacity of about 2,500-4,000 people.
