Activities galore for tourists and locals
Print Edition
THIS year’s Shanghai Tourism Festival gave local people and visitors a chance to discover the city’s unexplored beauty and vitality. During the month-long festival, a rich variety of programs were on offer — from a float parade to hiking tours, food and music festivals, art bazaar, exhibitions, and a shopping carnival.
Putuo District had its share of activities to promote local attractions and its image as a modern, eco-friendly community for living and working.
This year’s tourism festival featured “Silk Road on the Sea” as the theme.
To echo that theme, Putuo introduced a Suzhou Creek family tour program in Changfeng area.
Other tourist attractions in the area like Changfeng Ocean World and Legoland Discovery Center attracted families with children with discount tickets and interactive games.
Red Star Macalline, a leading furnishing mall operator in China, presented a children’s drama “Three Piggies” at its Zhenbei store. Visitors also had a chance to experience life in 2050 and 2500 through smart appliances and futuristic scenarios on exhibit in the store.
During the festival, people also played team building games on the bank of the Suzhou Creek to test their stamina and problem-solving skills.
The Suzhou Creek which meanders through Putuo has witnessed the tremendous changes along its course.
A children’s painting contest called “Suzhou Creek in My Eye” was held at Shanghai Textile Museum. Winning works were put on display there.
The museum also held a workshop for visitors to learn to make batik handkerchiefs using small objects in their daily life.
Global Harbor, the largest shopping mall in Putuo, brought 100 cute kittens to meet with cat lovers. People also admired art installations in the mall, browsed a replica show named “The Last Day of Pompeii,” enjoyed live jazz music and a float parade, and shopped for cartoon products in China’s first “Kumamon” store.
Other activities in Putuo during the festival included an exhibition and a catwalk show of qipao, body-hugging silk gowns for Chinese women with long slits up to the hip.
This quintessential Chinese dress evolved from the clothes of Manchu women in the 1920s and is worn only at special functions to show the feminine beauty of Chinese women.
