"As an art lover, Chef May chose to open her place away from the city, in an airy space adorned by artworks on loan from the gallery nearby. Tables are well spaced out, but consider booking a private room for special occasions. Fujian cuisine prevails on the menu and most ingredients are shipped straight from the province. Specialities such as the umami-loaded sea worm jelly and the aromatic Xiamen ginger duck stew are well executed." - Michelin Inspector

"Dragon Rooftop at Yu Garden, Shanghai Yu Garden is a must-go place in Shanghai , especially you like architecture. It is such a peaceful place to go, even in the rain... This dragon rooftop is inside the Yu (Jade) Garden in Shanghai . The dragon looks toward to the sky, and about to fly into the cloud. The whole body of the dragon last the entire wall. By Shan Shan"

A stunning garden in the center of Shanghai, where you can lose yourself in the beautiful buildings reconstructed in an ancient style. There's a wonderful perspective between the old buildings and the ultramodern skyscrapers that surround the garden. I always recommend a guide to point out any hidden gems in the garden.

Bought the tickets on trip.com, the waiting line to get in was about 5 minutes, the place was quite crowded but it was easy to navigate. It was also quite hot but there was vending machines and a souvenir shop where you could buy water. Overall has great views and typical Chinese architecture.

A must-visit in Shanghai! Yu Garden is a beautiful showcase of classic Chinese architecture, rich in history and charm. Beyond its scenic views, it’s a fantastic spot to shop for unique souvenirs and sample local snacks from the many food stalls. It does get very busy, especially in the evenings, so be prepared for crowds—but the lively atmosphere is all part of the experience.

Yu Garden is definitely worth a visit to see a classic Ming Dynasty garden. It's beautiful and has some stunning architecture, especially the zigzag bridge. But be ready for the crowds, it can get packed, which takes a little away from the peaceful vibes. Overall it’s a great taste of historical Shanghai.

You can pretty much walk in and purchase your ticket at the time of entry. Very easy and convenient to walk in on a Saturday. Though there may be a lot of tourists, you’ll notice many of them are Chinese nationals which is incredible to see. It’s certainly a historic place and one must check it out when visiting Shanghai.

Definitely have to come to these markets if you are in shanghai, and walk through Yu garden. Definitely come at sunset and watch the buildings light up and enjoy some local food and haggle over some shopping. A must see spot in shanghai.

Nice garden with some small pavillons with furniture, but more than that. Lots of trees and rocks, plus some artificial water ponds. Interesting to notice that there are 2 alleys - one for men and the other one for women, smaller in width.

I was not able to get into the garden as I thought it will still be opened in the night. But fortunately the buildings outside the garden were awesome. It lighted up with great figurines on the water. It is indeed an amazing sight😀😀😀😀😀😀
