Yu Garden is the most prestigious classical Chinese garden in Shanghai. The whole garden can be divided into six relatively independent areas: Sansui Hall, Wanhua Chamber, Dianchun Hall, Huijing Hall, Yuhua Hall and the Inner garden. There are also special landscapes inside and outside the garden, such as Exquisite Jade Rock, Dragon Walls, Mid-Lake Pavilion and the Zigzag Bridge.
Yuyuan Tourist Mart is located in the southwest side of Yu Garden, with the famous Zigzag Bridge and Mid-Lake Pavilion as the center. Most of the buildings around the pavilion are antique architecture, and there is always a feeling of traveling through the centuries when walking on the old streets outside Yu Garden. There is a collection of snack shops, teahouses, jewelry shops, pharmacies and other stores, including Nanxiang Steamed Bun Shop, Green Wave Gallery Restaurant, and Old Shanghai Restaurant.
