Yuyuan Garden

Another district that seems to have it all, Yuyuan Garden, simply called "Yu Garden," has a scenic lake, lush landscaping, souvenir shopping and signature dumplings that can be drank through a straw. This is a great place to find Shanghai's largest commodity – silk – for your friends at home, or a Haibo plush toy (the official mascot of the 2010 Expo) for any child awaiting a gift. Also, most of the stores in the recently opened Yu Fashion Garden do not close until 23:00. Keep multiple modes of transportation in mind because the area is located on Metro Line No. 10, which closes hours before the other lines.
