brief introduction

Zhangyan park is located in the middle of Zhangyan Town, Jinshan District, Shanghai, covering an area of 41 mu. It is a little closer to the old street of Zhangyan and close to the city river there.

It used to be the private residence of Wu Liang, a famous local family in Yuan Dynasty. After several generations of management, it was expanded into the famous "Wu garden" in Ming Dynasty when it was in Wuliang (Zhenshi). During the reign of Emperor Qianlong in the Qing Dynasty, the family was in decline. The garden was sold to the Qian family and became a part of the Qian family's private house, commonly known as "Qian family garden". During the period of the Republic of China, Qian's family gradually declined, and the garden was sold to other families, but people still call it Qian's garden.

In the early days of liberation, the garden was desolate and desolate. The park was once named "people's Park" since 1953. In 1956, the government mobilized the masses to arrange and rebuild some scenic spots. Zhangyan Park was initially built in 1958 and opened free of charge in 1960. During the "Cultural Revolution", because people were busy with the "Cultural Revolution", the construction and management of the park stagnated. After the "Cultural Revolution", the park was rebuilt and tickets were sold to tourists since 1980. Wei Wenbo, former Secretary of the Shanghai municipal Party committee, inscribed the name of the Park.

Park layout

Zhangyan park is not big, but the overall green area is OK. When you encounter places with luxuriant flowers and trees, narrow paths, you have to walk sideways. It's lush everywhere. If it's summer, it's the first choice for summer. After walking for a while, I moved out of a corridor from the green shadow. Before entering the corridor, I heard a hazy cry, but the voice was not loud. After walking through the corridor, I found that it was just like an old man's paradise. They were all serious about "xiaolailai", with a face of vicissitudes, saying the words of "my slave", and on their face they had experienced Zhang The wind and frost creases of weir changes.

They didn't pay attention to me, just like I didn't pay attention to them. I went around the corridor by myself. There was a small bridge behind the house, which divided the park into two parts. The bridge was exquisite and small. Because there was not much space behind it, I came back from the other side of the bridge and walked forward. Unexpectedly, I met a big iron cage and some little monkeys. When I saw me coming, they were interested and quickly stuck to the cage Trying to get close to me, it seems that they want to say something to me. When the monkey is placed here, the manager undoubtedly wants to open up the biological atmosphere of the park and station "bright spots", but I feel that the overall layout of the park is out of touch.

In a small world, there are corridors, bridges, lakes and pavilions. There are many scenic spots. I walk along a small path to the corridor and pavilions on one side. On the other side, there is a bridge, which is an antique stone bridge. It's a bit elegant to be placed with the lake water and the plants beside. I pass by the bridge, which is also a person in the scenery. Looking ahead, a small square like a lawn with a few simple stones on it is quite modern art style.

The most attractive thing is a small earth mound near the gate of the park. There is a pavilion with a reed top on it. Walking up the ancient and scattered stone steps, there is a spiritual experience of visiting the ancient. On the top, the pavilion in front of it looks delicate and small. With the simple hundred year old pines on both sides and the orchid grass at leisure, it seems to feel like "seven bamboo groves" The place where "Xian" recites poems and essays is very leisurely. It's just a long-standing stone lion with fresh moss. It's more or less grim and serious, which destroys the atmosphere.

Several long pieces of ancient stone horizontal frame up into a stone chair, very admire the decoration of the people's local conditions and ingenuity. A door stele was placed just right, but one fell asleep in another place somehow.

The overall layout of the park is full of towering trees, connected with paths and pavilions, quiet and clear. Although there are some regrets in some details, we can still trace a little ancient flavor.

Anecdotes and legends

It is said that Hai Rui, a famous official in the Ming Dynasty, once came to Zhangyan park. He said that he was young at that time, but of course he was not an official. He said that he was related to Wu Liang at that time. Hai Rui had a deep relationship with Wu Liang. When he was young, he read books in this shady and fragrant garden, which became a beautiful talk for later generations. He brought two famous potted pines from his hometown Hainan Island, and then transplanted them into trees On behalf of Qian's family, they built three ancient pine buildings on the basis of double pines, which were all destroyed in Xianfeng xinxibing's burning garden. It is impossible to verify its authenticity.
