Dongfang Green Boat is located adjacent to Dianshan Lake, featuring vast lake waves and lush vegetation, making it a large-scale park. Visitors typically come here to enjoy a leisurely stroll, fly kites, and have barbecues. Families enjoy picnics on the lawn, ride tandem bicycles, and children can play on the amusement facilities or learn at educational spots such as a replica aircraft carrier. Many companies also choose Dongfang Green Boat for employee team-building training.
Importantly, most schools in Shanghai organize student military training and spring outings here. Upon entering through Gate 4 of Dongfang Green Boat, visitors’ attention is drawn to the massive replica aircraft carrier, especially children who find the full-scale model very cool. Climbing aboard the aircraft carrier offers a panoramic view of Dongfang Green Boat and a distant view of Dianshan Lake. Inside, there are various entertainment facilities and an aviation museum, making it an excellent place for educational entertainment. The park also features over 160 statues of famous figures along the Wisdom Avenue for children to learn about their stories, a Global Village with different architectural styles from around the world (for accommodation), and sports and vacation facilities such as tennis courts, beach volleyball, and swimming pools.
