In addition, in the afternoon of June 24th before the game, alumni of the two places visited the "Guangfu Lin Forest Site Cultural Park" in Songjiang, Shanghai "." Guangfu Lin Forest Site Cultural Park “is praised as "the root of Shanghai cultural history", is the seventh batch of national key cultural relic Protection Units approved by the State Council. Through the excavation, clearance and research of the archaeologists in the past 50 years, it is concluded that the "FU" area has already had the existence and production activities of human beings 4,000 years ago, thus greatly advancing the history of Shanghai's cultural development. After “Guangfu Lin Forest Site Cultural Park” is completed, it will become a new cultural and historical Landmark in Shanghai. By visiting, the history of Shanghai has made a better understanding of the historical development of Shanghai and at the same time, the initial taste of the “future Guangfu Lin Forest Site Cultural Park" after the completion of the cultural atmosphere and momentum, left a deep impression.

Through the Shanghai- Jiangsu Tsinghua alumni friendship activities, participating in the activities of the alumni not only through sports competitions, visits and other forms of communication to achieve the purpose of physical and mental pleasure but also to increase the historical and cultural knowledge for the future to be able to work more healthily, life added a new impetus. Under the meticulous organization and arrangement of Shanghai Alumni Associations, the two alumni fellowship activities have been successful! I am also very grateful to Sun Pengfei and Cheil alumni for their strong support for the event and all volunteers.
