The Guangfulin relics were first discovered in 1958. The four excavation projects over fifty years have resulted in a great many valuable prehistoric cultural relics being unearthed.


Guangfulin is witness to the prior civilization of Shanghai.


Lake Fulin covers an area of 240 acres and is 2-3 meters deep, with distinctive architecture scattered in and around it.


The 33-meter tall Fulin Tower is the major landmark of Guangfulin.
