Located in the Songjiang district of East China's Shanghai, the Guangfulin Cultural Relics Park in the Shanghai Sheshan National Tourist Resort has organized various activities to celebrate the Chinese New Year.

Visitors can play with spinning tops, watch opera performances and admire intangible cultural heritage items and the park's idyllic scenery during these activities.

Located 30 kilometers from downtown Shanghai, the Guangfulin Cultural Relics Park has been dubbed the "Root of Shanghai" as it encapsulates the city's ancient way of life and showcases artifacts from 5,000 years ago.
