City walks are a process of exploration and discovery. On September 30, Jiading District Tourism Public Service Center launched the Family Citywalk parent-child city fun activity. 20 groups of parent-child families shuttled between Fahua Pagoda, Zhouqiao Old Street, and Jiading Museum, deeply exploring the long history and culture of Jiading, and feeling the unique charm of this ancient town and new city.
Nanwei of the State Bridge and Lianqi River, the first stop of parent-child trekking came to Jiading Fahua Pagoda. "Children, please count how many floors there are in the Fahua Pagoda?" "Seven floors!" Looking up, the Fahua Pagoda, which has stood majestically for more than 800 years, has been restored to its ancient charm and glows under the decoration of red satin.
"Fahua Pagoda has been rebuilt and repaired many times in various dynasties, and in 1994, when the underground palace of Fahua Pagoda was cleaned and excavated, a batch of precious cultural relics such as Buddha statues, books, ancient coins, and jade were also found." After listening to the tour guide's explanation, the children carefully observed and recorded carefully. "It was very interesting for us to enjoy the beautiful scenery and listen to interesting historical stories." 9-year-old Zhang Yiyi said.
Li Lina's family came to Shanghai from Hunan in 2019 and settled in Jiading Xuxing. In her opinion, CityWalk is able to create a deep connection with the city. "We usually take our baby to visit the vicinity of Zhouqiao Old Street, but we are more observant. This time, a professional took us to an in-depth exploration, only to find that there are many hidden 'Easter eggs' behind these familiar landmarks, which also made us know and love Jiading city more. Li Lina said.
Walking into the Jiading Museum, rich historical materials such as marine life fossils and ancient coins come into view. From the sea to the land, from the rise to the development, the children learned about every change and development process of Jiading in the dialogue with the exhibits, and experienced the nourishment and continuity of the millennium cultural context. Student Zhao Chuanrui carefully traced the appearance of the coin "Jiading Tongbao" in the record book: "I am refreshed by the many rare treasures in the museum, some of them have unique shapes, and some of them are particularly delicate, and I want to record them all." ”
According to reports, Family Citywalk parent-child city fun activities are a series of special activities of Jiading District Tourism Public Service Center, which has been successfully launched for four phases since 2021.
"Through the form of parent-child walking, citizens can visit and deeply explore the representative attractions of Jiading. The last preservation project of the event, the 'Tourism Knowledge Challenge', allowed everyone to have a deeper memory and understanding of the history and humanities of Jiading. Xiang Yijun, a staff member of the Jiading District Tourism Service Center, said, "In the future, we will launch more routes with different themes to unlock other fun, interesting and knowledgeable places, so that more parent-child families can participate in our activities." ”
