#postandearn #localguides #postandearn North Bund Green Land is a revitalized riverside area located in Shanghai’s Hongkou District. Once an industrial waterfront, it has transformed into a vibrant urban space blending green parks, cultural heritage, and sustainable development. This project is part of Shanghai’s broader plan to create a new urban hub that combines business, culture, and community along the Huangpu River. One of the highlights of North Bund Green Land is the Maritime Park, which opened in July 2023. It features the impressive “Dream Boat” sculpture and a 77-meter illuminated scroll that tells the story of global shipping history. Visitors can enjoy green spaces and scenic river views, making it a perfect spot for relaxation and cultural appreciation. By 2030, the area will have a 4.5-kilometer network of elevated skywalks connecting important buildings and public spaces. This design promotes pedestrian-friendly urban living and enhances connectivity within the district. Additionally, historic buildings like the Shanghai Jewish Refugees Museum and the China Securities Museum have been preserved and integrated into the modern landscape, preserving the area’s rich history. North Bund Green Land is also a pioneer in green development. The North Bund International Shipping Green Development Community, established in early 2024, focuses on promoting sustainable maritime practices through global cooperation. This makes the area a key player in combining urban growth with environmental responsibility. The park is easily accessible via Shanghai Metro Line 12 at the International Cruise Terminal station, with additional bus connections available. Its pedestrian pathways along the river provide a pleasant and scenic walking experience. Whether you’re interested in history, sustainability, or just want to enjoy a beautiful riverside park, North Bund Green Land in Shanghai offers a unique and enriching experience. #NorthBundGreenLand #Shanghai #UrbanDevelopment #MaritimePark #SustainableCity #GreenSpaces #CulturalHeritage #RiverfrontPark #ShanghaiTravel #CityParks #GreenDevelopment

#chillandthrill Rike Park in Tbilisi is the perfect escape from the hustle and bustle of the city. Located right by the river, this park is a tranquil green space where you can relax and enjoy the fresh air. The park itself is beautifully landscaped with paths to stroll along, and there’s plenty of room to sit and people-watch, surrounded by flowers and trees. What makes Rike Park even more special is its modern twist—it’s home to the futuristic-looking Rike Concert Hall, and the cable car station that takes you up to the Narikala Fortress. I spent a peaceful afternoon here, enjoying a picnic by the river and taking in the view of the bridge connecting the park to Old Tbilisi.

A very nice outdoor green space to relax and walk around. It's basically a collection of gardens at the base of Namsan mountain, which has nice and paved paths. There are many benches along the way, drinking fountains and toilets. It's easy to get to as there are many paths leading to the gardens along the road. You can even hike up to N Seoul Tower, though that is a bit more difficult. Overall a great oasis in the city and a great place to view the cherry blossoms in spring! #park #greenspaces

#springwander Spring in Hangzhou feels like stepping into a gentle daydream. The city, already known for its poetic beauty, becomes even more magical when the season turns. One of the best ways to soak it all in? A slow, peaceful day at one of Hangzhou’s many parks. Today, I wandered into a local park just as the morning sun filtered through the trees. The air was crisp with the scent of fresh grass and soft petals — everything felt alive. Cherry blossoms swayed above, their pink petals fluttering like confetti in the wind. Families picnicked under trees, couples strolled hand-in-hand, and children chased bubbles across the lawn. It was the kind of warmth that wraps around you like a favorite sweater. The pathways were lined with blooming flowers — tulips, camellias, and even early-blooming hydrangeas. I found a quiet bench near a small lake, where the reflections of willow branches danced on the water’s surface. A tea thermos in hand and a book on my lap, it was the perfect pause from the busy world. As the day went on, golden sunlight painted everything in a soft glow. I stayed to watch the sun begin its descent, casting long shadows and turning the sky into pastel hues. There’s something special about Hangzhou’s parks in spring — peaceful, poetic, and perfect for finding a bit of calm. #HangzhouSpring #SpringInThePark #HangzhouVibes #NatureInHangzhou #SpringEscape #BloomSeason #PicnicDays #CherryBlossomMagic #PeacefulPlaces #HangzhouWander #FreshAirFeels #PetalsAndSunshine #SpringDreams #GreenSpaces #GoldenHourVibes #ChinaTravelMoments
