Shanghai Sculpture Space

We just discovered recently this place called Shanghai Sculpture Space and were impressed at how big the place was and well-maintained it was. Above all, we were allowed on the grass!

When we arrived, the kids immediately were running around looking at each piece of sculpture scattered around the lawn. They kept asking: "What is this?" or "What is that?" As there was also a little hill (more like a mound), they decided to roll down the slope while at the same time singing the song from The Wiggles titled: "Rolling Down the Sandhill". They enjoyed themselves that they kept telling us not to go home yet.

We had lunch at a nice restaurant called BECA Cafe and with the clientele they had that day (Valentine's Day), it felt like we were in Europe. Just interesting to be in Shanghai but to be in a place that didn't feel like you are in Shanghai...

There are some sculptures inside the buildings, too, but some were a bit 'too scary' for Audrey that she kept wanting to find a way out. There were also some design studios inside the buildings around the park and it would be interesting to have an office there. Unfortunately, it is for us, a bit out of the way. We're more used to being in downtown.
