Shanghai Greenhouse visitors get night vision

With a standard ticket, visitors can wander among rare plants bathed in starlight and soft, atmospheric lighting, until 9pm. Covering 22,000 square meters, the greenhouse features three zones — Sand Mirage, Cloud Forest and Cloud Canyon — each simulating a distinct tropical habitat, from sunny deserts to misty jungle retreats.

But the night doesn’t stop at the plants.

Outside, the greenhouse plaza transforms into a vibrant social space with live music, open-air movies, cozy camp-style seating, and ambient lighting, ideal for a laid-back evening with friends.

A short stroll away, the Jiangnan-style Shenyuan Garden also stays open late, offering moonlit paths and lantern-lit pavilions steeped in quiet elegance.

Hungry or in the mood to browse? The nearby Centre d’Art Rodin hosts a buzzing night market channeling the spirit of Shanghai’s urban nightlife.

Bonus: Free Saturday night shuttle buses connect the key attractions in the park for easy park-hopping. And parking is open 24/7.
