Dubbed a "living fossil", the dawn redwood forest in the Qingxi Suburban Park in Shanghai covers an area of 5.53 hectares (83 acres). Decorated with birds and flashes of light from the lake, this overwater dawn redwood forest in Shanghai looks magnificent. In late autumn and early winter, the green leaves of the dawn redwood gradually turn bronze and red, which look glamorous in the sunlight and seem to demand that tourists take their picture.
