G+Park is the first original theme park in the country that attaches to “museum”, the urban eye, using art and culture as media to transmit sense of happiness to urban residents and guiding a new fashion featured with museum lifestyle. “G” stands for “glass”. Through diversified interpretation of this theme, it continues to share the infinite possibilities of glass, to fulfil the beautiful dream. The “+” sign does not only mean adding up in the physical sense, but to have active chemical reaction between the various architecture unit with different features in the Park and the magical element of “glass”, thus bursting out refreshing charm. The Park proudly owns the splendid Shanghai Museum of Glass, artist studio, allowing the public to merge into the rich artistic atmosphere. It also has the Kids Museum of Glass characterized with “cool play cool dazzling cool fun”, allowing both adults and children to discover the infinite fun brought by glass, and to enjoy the relaxed family leisure time. There is also elegant KILN club, the Italian-style Murano restaurant, cozy and delightful museum café shop, factory store and fine gift shop that have world-known brands, to contribute flavor and glamour to beautiful life. To integrate art into life, to make happier life, this is the concept that the whole Park expects to pas to the urban residents.

They took the chance appreciating the splendid sights of different spaces of the new wings of Phase II during the four-hour colorful experience, presenting the brand new image of “new park new hope, glassy heart happy heart”.

No matter it’s to organize a personalized romantic wedding ceremony, to participate in a high-level artistic culture activity or to strive for personal career, we expect that these three brand new dreams can bring strong sense of happiness to the city residents, enabling the museum lifestyle to fully extend. Here it will give birth to a brand new dream about glass, expecting everyone with dream in heart will share wonderful life with G+ Park. This is both a mission and a common vision for G+ Park people.
