Fountain
In the center of the square is a 320 sq. meter fountain，named the “Light of the Huangpu River”. It is the first giant music-synchronized "dancing" fountain in the country. Red, blue and yellow sculptures in the fountain portray a beautiful, glowing display, creating a grand sight for those who visit the area.
There are two small squares beside the central square. The east square is called the Rising Sun Square; the west is called the Bright Moon Square.
Transportation:
Under the Square is a large central Metro station where the No.1 and 2 metro lines meet.
Within the station itself are two modern marketplaces: one features popular stores from the Hong Kong, and the other is the Dimei underground market.
Pigeons
Southwest of the square is a beautiful blue and white home for pigeons! Thousands of pigeons fly from their house to the Square's lawn to meet tourists each day. Their coming promotes a feeling of peace and serenity to all that visit the area.
