Very nice

The garden was really beautiful and nice to do. We had a great time taking pictures and walking around even if it was crowded.

Beautiful, historic, but very busy

Title: Beautiful, historic, but very busy We came across Yuyuan Garden almost by chance and decided to go in, and we’re very glad we did. Entry wasn’t expensive, and it offered a fascinating glimpse into traditional Chinese gardens, architecture, and history right in the middle of Shanghai. The gardens themselves are beautifully designed, with water features, bridges, pavilions, and intricate details throughout. It’s a very busy area, and at times it can feel quite claustrophobic due to the narrow walkways and large crowds, but that’s very much part of the experience here. Allow around an hour to walk through the gardens and surrounding areas at a comfortable pace. It’s not huge, but there’s plenty to see and take in during that time. As with much of Shanghai, seating is very limited, so it’s not a place to rest for long, but as a cultural and visual experience it’s excellent. Despite the crowds, we really enjoyed it and would absolutely recommend it as a must-see stop when visiting the city.

I was fooled (it's a scam!!!)

The ticket is fake and is not accepted on site. Even more expensive than the official ticket sold at the entrance of the attraction. I lost my money and I do not recommend it to anyone.
