Guangfulin Cultural Relics Park in Songjiang District, which will open in the spring, will put the booming city of Shanghai in touch with its past.

Visitors will be able to discover for themselves the roots of the city’s culture, tourism authorities in Songjiang said yesterday.

Built on the Guangfulin archaeological site — where Shanghai’s earliest known residents lived some 4,000 years ago — the relics park will comprise museums, a pagoda, temples, exhibition areas and farmland.
