佘山位于中國上海市松江區(qū)，分東佘山跟西佘山，是大上海的后花園。上海佘山國家森林公園位于中國上海西郊松江區(qū)境內(nèi)，距市中心30公里，是上海唯一的自然山林勝地。園內(nèi)十二座山峰猶如十二顆大小不等的翡翠從西南趨向東北，蜿蜒連綿13公里，使一馬平川的上海平原呈現(xiàn)出靈秀多姿的山林景觀。

東佘山園海撥74米，山地面積800余畝，山地鐘秀、林木蔥郁、景冠九峰。山上動(dòng)植物資源豐富。這里尤以山間所產(chǎn)竹筍有蘭花幽香而著名，當(dāng)年清康熙帝南巡至此，品賞后即御書“蘭筍山”三字，并賜名此筍為“蘭花筍”。

西佘山園景區(qū)是云間九峰中環(huán)境最好、面積最大的景區(qū)。園內(nèi)燦爛的人文景觀和秀麗的自然風(fēng)光吸引著眾多的中外游客。山頂濃蔭深處一幢氣勢非凡的赭紅色建筑，就是名聞遐邇的“遠(yuǎn)東第一大教堂”。與之毗鄰的那個(gè)穹廬形建筑，是中國最古老的天文觀測臺。

Around the lake is a park in which are found several attractions: Lotus Flower Pagoda, Small Gold Mountain (Xiao Jin Shan); and the Fishing Platform (Diaoyutai), a favorite retreat of the Qing emperor Qian Long. The emperor was so gratified by his luck in fishing at this spot that he ordered additional stipends for the town.
