Guangfulin Relic Park, located in the south of Sheshan Resort, showcases historic relics from the late Neolithic Age in China. The relics belong to Songze culture and Liangzhu culture, and are important representations of early urban civilization in ancient China.

A sea of light-emitting diodes and multiple groups of 3D projectors help the ancient park to retell its stories with a 3-minute light show. [Photo/WeChat account: sheshanlvyou]

Some 20 exhibitions display how people in Shanghai used to live, as well as their history and culture. Over 9,000 square meters of relics are underwater, which has become a highlight of the attraction. The parts beneath the water are historical objects not yet excavated.

Dancers wow audience with their elegant movements. The show is currently being staged near the front entrance of Fulin Tower. [Photo/WeChat account: sheshanlvyou]
