It was open not only to local office workers but also to sports enthusiasts from across Shanghai.

Until December 1, visitors can continue enjoying a range of trendy urban sports at CITIC Square. Activities like rock climbing, parkour, yoga and Zumba are available to pre-book, giving sports lovers a chance to try new fitness skills in a lively atmosphere.
