　　Two highly-anticipated new attractions in downtown Shanghai – a pair of twin hills and stunning conservatories – have been unveiled, offering a fresh blend of natural beauty and architectural wonder.

　　Both are highlights of the Shanghai Expo Culture Park's southern section, which covers 65 hectares and is set to open to the public on September 20, nearly three years after the northern section's debut.

　　"Twin Hills"

　　Known as the "Twin Hills," these two artificial formations rise impressively against the city skyline on the southeastern edge of the park, spanning a sprawling 300,000 square meters.

　　This landscape features a 48-meter hill and a slightly shorter 37-meter companion, which are forested with over 7,000 trees, creating a natural landscape reminiscent of wild mountain forests with cascading streams and waterfalls.

　　The water for the waterfalls and streams is sourced from the Huangpu River and has been cleaned and purified.

　　Meandering trails offer a tranquil escape, drawing visitors to stroll and take in the views. Beneath the surface, the hills conceal an open-space structure housing an exhibition hall, a parking garage, and other facilities.

　　At the base of the hills is a children's playground.

　　An aerial view shows the vastness of the Shanghai Greenhouse.

　　Nestled in the heart of the park, adjacent to the tranquil central lake and flanked by the twin hills, is the Shanghai Greenhouse.

　　Covering approximately 22,000 square meters, this sprawling urban oasis features three distinct themed pavilions: Sand Mirage, Cloud Forest, and Cloud Canyon.

　　Each pavilion is designed to represent a unique plant habitat. Visitors can explore arid tropical environments, shaded tropical retreats, and sun-drenched tropical gardens.

　　Highlights include towering specimens such as the saguaro cactus, one of the tallest cacti in the world; the notoriously poisonous upas trees; and the baobab trees, often called the "tree of life."

　　The Shanghai Greenhouse is home to an urban oasis.

　　Adding to the allure, the greenhouse features an underwater forest with a 12-meter-long, 4-meter-deep aquarium teeming with vibrant tropical fish.

　　Throughout the space, artful sculptures, innovative installations, and dynamic projections create a sensory-rich environment that seamlessly blends nature with cultural artistry.

　　To mark its grand opening, the venue is offering a limited run of early-bird tickets at 59 yuan (US$8.28) each, valid until the end of the year.

　　Tickets can be secured via the Shanghai Expo Culture Park's mini-program or on platforms such as Meituan and Trip.com.

　　Future ticketing options, including combined passes for the greenhouse and other park attractions, will be released later this year.

　　A corner of the greenhouse is home to a desert plant display.

　　To celebrate the opening of the park's southern section, a series of events will be hosted, including a photo exhibition at the exhibition center of "Twin Hills," and a street performer festival on the park's grand lawn.

　　Additionally, several former Shanghai Expo venues have been renovated for new purposes.

　　The former French Pavilion will feature an exhibition of French sculptor Auguste Rodin. The former Italian Pavilion will host an exhibition showcasing Italian lifestyle and art. The former Russian Pavilion will reopen as a state-of-the-art entertainment hub called Red Rock, featuring popular music, fashion, and cutting-edge technology under one roof.

　　These exhibitions and performances will be introduced in late September.

　　The Shanghai Expo Culture Park began construction in September 2017. The northern section opened to the public in December 2021 and had already welcomed over 5.38 million guests as of the end of August.

　　包含双子山在内的上海世博文化公园南区将于9月20日正式开园！

　　上海世博文化公园于2017年9月22日开始建设，经过整整七年的建设，终于基本建成开放。

　　公园北区已于2021年12月31日率先向广大市民游客开放。如今，为了让市民群众有更多实实在在的获得感和幸福感，促使黄浦江两岸地区建设实现新突破，迈上新台阶，上海世博文化公园南区将于2024年9月20日开园。

　　上海世博文化公园南区占地总面积65公顷，重点景观项目有双子山、上海温室花园和世界花艺园等，其中，黄浦江畔的48米双子山最受关注。

　　双子山位于公园东南侧，占地达30万平方米，由48米高的主峰和37米高的次峰组成，山体种植7000多棵乔木。

　　山体内部采用空腔结构，设置展厅、停车库、变电站等功能设施，是国内第一座高度超过40米的空腔结构人工仿自然山林。

　　在双子山的山脚下，还有精心设计的主题儿童乐园——蘑力乐园，能更好地服务不同年龄的游客，让亲子家庭有更好的游玩体验。

　　上海温室花园位于上海世博文化公园中心位置，紧邻中心湖，背靠双子山，占地约2.2万平方米，是集观赏游览、休闲娱乐为一体的多功能生态综合体。

　　它由1个游客服务中心和1号馆海市沙洲、2号馆云上森林和3号馆云雾峡谷等三大主题场馆组成。

　　三大主题场馆是根据植物的生境进行分类设置，结合建筑的空间结构，择取世界生态系统中的典型生态片段，打造热带干旱、热带湿生耐荫、热带湿生喜阳三种环境类型，分别展示热带干旱植物、热带雨林植物与热带花卉植物。比如，大家可以看到世界上最高的仙人掌品种之一的巨人柱，著名的“生命之树”猴面包树，有植物界“活化石”之称的百岁兰，拥有剧毒的“见血封喉”等等。

　　同时，温室里还有各种雕塑、艺术装置、投影和环幕，力求表现植物到“博物＋文化”的延展，从而打造好看、好玩的沉浸式展览温室。

　　作为南区开园的重点项目，上海温室花园特别限量发售开园福利早鸟票，于9月10日下午2点开售，该通票售价59元/人，可以使用到年底。

　　今后还将推出温室和公园其它景点的联动票，大家可以到上海世博文化公园的小程序，或者是美团、携程等平台购买。

　　为配合南区开园，世博文化公园将举办一系列活动，比如，在双子山展厅举办“人民的镜界”摄影展，在金秋10月的音乐之林继续举办“公园好声音”街头艺人表演。狗Go乐园内也将举办“南区开园·狗Go狂欢”等丰富活动。申园将在中秋与国庆档期打造“花满申园，见山申市”系列主题活动。同时，满庭芳沉浸光影秀也会继续开放。

　　公园的世博会保留场馆也被赋予新的功能。原卢森堡馆内餐厅为游客们带来特色美食，原法国馆将展出“罗丹：现代雕塑的启承”大展，原意大利馆将举办“万花之境”意大利生活艺术大展，原俄罗斯馆经过全新改造，将成为集流行音乐、潮流时尚、前沿科技于一体的全新演艺中心RED ROCK（红石中心）。这些展览和演艺活动将在9月下旬陆续推出。
