A cache in a nice park in Shanghai. You can get there easily by metro (line 2). Get off the station "Shanghai Science & Technology Museum".
Ok... you got off the metro, so let's start at the square between the two exits! The coordinates for the startposition are:
N 31°13.309 / E 121°32.320
If you have a look around, you'll see it is the most
beautiful metrostation in Shanghai ;-)
For a long time this was the metrostation near my home before I moved to Lujiazui.
Make sure you have the "8 poles" in your back and face to the "broad footpath" in ESE-direction. Follow the way to the entrance of the park.
At the gate of the park -unfortunately- you have to pay the charge of 10 kuai to get in.
If you paid the fee and are still interested in finding the cache, go to the following coordinates, so you can start the hunt:
STAGE 1:
N 31°13.128 / E 121°32.692
There you'll see some pillars. The quantity of the poles is A. Now, you can calculate the next coordinates with the given formula:
B=A+4
C=B-1
D=C-1
The new coordinates are:
N 31°13.0BC / E 121°33.0DD
STAGE 2:
At the next position you'll find a small pavilion-like building, which has two cupolas underneath the roof. Have a closer look above your head while standing inside the building and you'll see a big circle with many small dots at the border. Count the the dots, the number of them is E.
(You can chose each of both cupolas, the result will be the same!)
The coordinates for the last intermediate point are:
N 31°13.0(C*E+C) / E 121°32.9(E-(B+C+2*D))
STAGE 3:
At this point you will see an information board. On the map there are some landmarks, each of them has a different number. Use the numbers to complete the coordinates for the cacheposition:
F: landmark no. Bright Lake
G: landmark no. Potted Landscape Garden
H: landmark no. Green World (Embrossment)
N 31°12.F(2*E-C) / E 121°32.FGH
CACHE PLACE:
At the cacheplace be careful with the sharp-edged stones!
The cache is a small box (chinese kind of tupperware, probably lower quality - I hope the cache won't get wet) wrapped in a plastic bag.
Make sure, that you put back the cache in the same position and it is not seen by bare eyes... thank you!
