“I love taking walks in the park by myself, where no one can bother me, my mind can wander, and I can think about anything and everything that pops into my head.”
“It’s very important to take care of yourself. Everyone’s lives are so busy. Take at least an hour a day to recharge and do whatever makes you better. For grown-ups, whether it’s a spa, sitting in a park with a book, or coffee, take time for yourself.” – Ana Ivanovic
This summer my “recharge time” has been an hour spent each morning exploring one of the beautiful parks in Minhang, Shanghai. This beautiful park, Minhang Sports Part is right next to the apartment block where I now live and the perfect place for an early morning or even an evening walk. This was my first morning exploring this park and I fell in love with it.

Walking is such a wonderful way of relaxing … that’s why we’ve done two LONG Camino’s 😊. Your park looks like a real gem in the city – enjoy!

The cobblestone path is lovely. What a relaxing park. I can see why you fell in love with it immediately. So spacious and calming. So far from the mood of society.

It truly is. I am so grateful that I live next to this park and that now I get to walk through it after lunch for a daily walk. I am already starting to see how summer is ending and autumn is creeping in through the plants and how they are changing. It is a needed refuge from work!

It is fabulous! I have actually taken one of my classes into the park for a poetry in the park lesson where they had to compose nature inspired poems!
