One end is connected to the Bund and the other end is connected to the commercial and office buildings located in the core area of Dongjiadu. At the same time, it crosses two roads, Outer Road and Zhongshan South Road. Above the bridge deck is a large garden, and the "Dongjiadu Flower Bridge" is unveiled on the South Bund in Huangpu District.

Looking down from a high altitude at Dongjiadu Flower Bridge, from the hinterland towards the river, the bridge deck gradually narrows and widens, presenting a trumpet shape, like a "flower" blooming towards the river.

"Returning to the riverside" is the design theme of this pedestrian overpass: in a smooth and open form, it naturally transitions the urban texture of the hinterland to a smooth waterfront shape, allowing people from all directions to leisurely walk to the riverside through the flower bridge, and connect naturally with the connected South Bund waterfront.

This is also a new "observation balcony". With clever design, even standing in the middle of the Flower Bridge, one can still see the river and the opposite Pudong.

Flowers can also be seen on the bridge deck. The bridge deck of Dongjiadu Flower Bridge is an "aerial garden", using an astonishing amount of flowers and plants, surpassing any pedestrian overpass in Shanghai. On both sides of the two main roads facing east and west on the bridge deck, mixed flower paths and colorful ground covers such as azaleas and golden leaf stone calamus are planted. On the inner side, cherry blossoms are used as the theme tree species, dotted with middle layer plants such as red maple and chicken claw maple, forming a dynamic and colorful continuous landscape. The clever combination of greenery and landscape allows us to see flowers in every season. It is said that in order to improve the survival rate of greening, the construction party overcame difficulties and dug a tree pit down to 2 meters.

Zhongshan South Road is a main road along the Bund in Huangpu District, with a high traffic volume and a unique scenery of a bustling city. Dongjiadu Flower Bridge is the best tourist attraction. At the center of the Flower Bridge, the designer innovatively designed a "flower eye" - with walkways on both sides and a hollow center, overlooking like an "eye". This design allows for transparency on the ground, allowing people to drive through the ground without feeling oppressed. On the other hand, it creates an interesting perspective for observing traffic flow.

People can see the scenery on the bridge, and you can see the scenery on the riverbank. The Flower Bridge is a brand new iconic landscape on the South Bund, which not only allows for daytime and nighttime views, but also a beautiful scenery. At night, the water light flows through, and the photoelectric glass and ground paving outside the flower bridge railing are like scattered stars, adding luster to the night by the Huangpu River.

Dongjiadu Flower Bridge is an important part of slow traffic from the riverside to the hinterland of Dongjiadu. People no longer need to cross two roads to reach the riverside. Under the Huaqiao Bridge, new underground spaces are being constructed, including a large parking lot, which will greatly alleviate the parking difficulties in the Dongjiadu area after completion. In the future, the Dongjiadu regional plan will create a "5 up and 5 down" three-dimensional pedestrian corridor, including 5 pedestrian aerial corridors and 5 pedestrian underground passages. Through aerial bridges, building platforms, and underground passages, an integrated, humanized, and diversified three-dimensional layered pedestrian transportation system will be constructed, forming a modern "three-dimensional city".

Gorgeous turn, the new Dongjiadu has just begun to take shape

Along the Dongjiadu Flower Bridge and extending towards the hinterland, it is the newly emerging CBD "Green Bund Center", which is also the core plot of Dongjiadu.

The entire "Green Bund Center" plot is infused with modern elements and historical culture, creating a scenic block that can be strolled and enjoyed. Greenland Group introduced that in terms of spatial planning, in the east-west direction, it forms a landscape axis that runs through the east and west through a 300 meter high core tower, pocket park, garden style centralized commercial area along the line, riverside boardwalk commercial area, and riverside nodes, echoing from beginning to end; In the north-south direction, based on the green landscape axis, historical and cultural elements such as the Catholic Church and the Merchant Shipping Hall are connected, forming a landscape axis that runs through the north and south.

The space for scraps within the plot is maximized, with six pocket parks interspersed among them. For example, the guild garden surrounding the merchant shipping guild combines the ancient and beautiful style of Chinese gardens; The church garden located on one side of Dongjiadu Catholic Church is small yet exquisite; The various grass gardens and health gardens interspersed between office buildings incorporate different landscape elements, each with its own unique features. These pocket parks are now the favorite leisure places for nearby residents and office white-collar workers in buildings.
