Is the egret in Shanghai Fuxing Island Park open? introduce

Today’s Fuxing Island Park Party and Mass Service Station is a renovation of the historical building Bailu in Fuxing Island Park. You can check in now. There are many attractions at the service station that are suitable for checking in, and it is also a good place to go on weekends. See below for details.

The origin of the Party and Mass Service Station in Fuxing Island Park

The Party and Mass Service Station in Fuxing Island Park is a renovation of the Egret, the fifth outstanding historical building in Shanghai. Founded in 1934, it was formerly known as the Pujun Bureau Foreign Crew Club. It was nationalized after the liberation of New China, but has not been opened to the outside world for various reasons. On June 27, 2021, Bailu made a gorgeous turn and became one of the Yangpu Binjiang Party and Mass Service Stations.

Renovate the old to look like the old

The renovation of Bailu follows the basic principle of “renovate the old to look like the old”. The building's facade style and structural form remain unchanged. During this renovation, the internal structure of the house was repaired and reinforced, and the problems of house damage and roof leakage were solved by refurbishing roof tiles, removing and replacing gutters, and increasing roof waterproofing. Improved the building's functionality and safety performance. As for the building's exterior facade, the exterior wall paint was painted in its original color, the original steel doors and windows were repaired with new ones of the same color, the damaged octagonal pavilion roof was renovated with the original roof tiles, and the old treatment made the facade image more harmonious and unified.

The indoor space is composed of four sections. Through the exhibition flow line of "history, present and future", it reflects the development process from "city park" to "park city".

The outdoor environment adheres to the design concept of green, open and enjoyable, and adopts modern and simple design techniques to effectively organize garden design elements to form two garden spaces in the east and west. The east garden retains the old vines and original large trees, one high and one low, with the same pitch; new maples, azaleas and other plants are planted, and a combined flower border is set up so that the garden has flowers in all seasons. In general, the West Garden creates the charm of a modern oriental garden. It uses hollow walls, borrows the scenery of the park, and adopts modern techniques in the garden layout, which conforms to the artistic conception of traditional oriental gardens, allowing people to feel freedom in a limited space. The broad landscape spirit effectively echoes the "park city" concept of the Party and Mass Service Station.

The identity of Bailu has changed several times

It was established in 1930. It was originally a sports meeting of Pujun Bureau.

During the Anti-Japanese War, Songhu was occupied by the Japanese army. As the military engineering headquarters at that time, the entire island was renamed Showa Island.

After the victory of the Anti-Japanese War, the entire island was returned to the Pu Army Bureau for use. To celebrate the victory of the Anti-Japanese War and national rejuvenation, the island was named Fuxing Island, and the "Fuxing Island Recovery Monument" was built in the park to commemorate it.

After the liberation of Shanghai, the Port Authority took over the park and handed it over to the Public Works Bureau in February 1951. After some repairs, it was opened to the public on May 28.

Fuxing Island Park has been repaired many times, and the historic sites were once destroyed. It was later rebuilt and named "Fuxing Stone", with the history of the park recorded on the back.

2. Pu Jun’s Memory Wall

There are three ship models here, namely Jianshe, Hailong and 4001, which are representative ships of construction ships that have made great contributions in the history of Shanghai Aviation Administration. "Jianshe" is a self-propelled rake-suction dredger purchased from Germany by the Pujun Engineering Administration in 1934. With a volume of 3,250 cubic meters, it was the most advanced 10,000-ton dredger at the time and was known as the "No. 1 in the Far East." It has always been the main ship on the Huangpu River. On the eve of the liberation of Shanghai, the then factory director Ding Guitang led the Pujun workers to carry out the movement to protect ships, protect production, and welcome liberation. In the end, "construction" was left in the hands of the people. It wasn't long before "Construction" proved its worth once again. In February 1950, the Nanjing Pukou Wharf embankment was washed away by the roaring Yangtze River. The Shanghai Pujun Bureau fully mobilized 44 dredging auxiliary ships represented by the "Jianshe" to successfully complete the rescue mission and protect Nanjing and Xinjiang.

Second stop: Dinghai Road Bridge

Dinghai Bridge is the first tied arch bridge in the urban section of the Huangpu River. It was built for the development of Fuxing Island. In order to make the best use of this "excellent place", the former Shanghai Pujun Bureau invested 70,000 silver cars in its construction, which was completed and opened to traffic on December 31, 1927. In order to build this bridge, the Pujun Bureau hired many Chinese and foreign engineers to carefully select the site and adopted a universal and standardized design plan that was in line with international standards at the time. The span of this bridge is approximately 90 meters. There are 11 circular iron hanging columns on both sides of the arch, and the bottom elevation of the beam is 7.40 meters. The piers and bridge decks, embankments and bridge decks were built using techniques unique to the time. For example, the Dinghai Road Bridge, which has a history of nearly a century, is responsible for the transportation between Fuxing Island and inland urban areas. In 2011, the Dinghai Road Bridge was listed as a "registered immovable cultural relic in Yangpu District" and a "readable building" in Yangpu District.

There is also a little-known red story on this bridge. One day in February 1932, Shanghai driver Hu Amao drove a truck carrying Japanese troops and arms into the Huangpu River, and fabricated a story about an anti-Japanese hero at Dinghai Bridge at his own expense.

Third stop: Fuxing Island

Fuxing Island is located in the northeast of the central city of Shanghai. It is crescent-shaped and covers an area of ??about 1.133 square kilometers. It is an artificial island in the middle of the Huangpu River. It was originally a shoal near Zhoujiazui Village on the Huangpu River, and its name was

There is also a red story about Pujun Bureau in Shanghai.

In 1949, the Pujun Bureau received an urgent notice that the Kuomintang's military and political officials in Shanghai fled to Taiwan Province on the dredger "Jianshe" and the survey ship "Lijiang". Director Ding Guitang resolutely conveyed his desire for an uprising to the Central Committee of the Communist Party of China. After receiving personal instructions from Zhou Enlai, Ding Guitang led the Shanghai waterway workers to launch a struggle campaign to protect ships, protect production, and protect liberation. In the end, the "Jianshe", "Lijiang" and other dredging vessels were returned to people intact. At 4:30 in the morning on May 25, 1949, a huge red slogan "Welcome the People's Liberation Army to liberate Greater Shanghai!" was hung in the customs building. A number of warships such as the Jianshe and Lijiang docked steadily at the home port, and the bells rang in unison. The story was adapted into the movie "The Raging River".

The temperament of Fuxing Island is different from that of tourist attractions. It is not a paradise. There are many old factories, old warehouses, old ferry terminals and an old park. Most of the residents on the island are factory workers and their families. There are no commercial houses, convenience stores, cinemas and cafes here. Time seems to stand still here, maintaining the most pristine appearance. It is also an island that many people will never forget and hold many memories in their hearts.
