"Fuxing Park has quite the history. It was a Ming Dynasty private garden until the French took it over in 1909. Then came the Japanese occupation of Shanghai during World War II untilthe early 1950s,after whichthe park again became Chinese. Today, the park is a vibrant gathering spot, wide open to the public. No matter the season, it's full of locals playing mah-jong, practicing tai chi, writing calligraphy, and flying kites amid the sycamore trees. Come early on a weekday morning to see the dancers, then walk over to the Mattress flower beds."
