Residents enjoy the lovely autumn view in a sea of pink hariawn muhly grass at Caihongwan Park in Shanghai's Hongkou District.

Shanghai will enjoy nice weather, with sunshine and crystal clear sky, from this weekend.

There will not be any dramatic changes in the temperatures, which will range between 16 and 24 degrees Celsius.

Also, the next couple of days will be dry with good air quality, featuring the crisp fall views although drizzles may drench the city on Sunday.

This is also the best season for enjoying the sweet smell of osmanthus, with the flowers now in full bloom across Shanghai.

While the COVID-19 pandemic situation remains serious in many places in China, including Shanghai, local health authorities are reminding residents to maintain good health habits if they are planning to go on an autumn tour, including properly wearing face masks in public places, washing hands frequently, avoiding gathering and taking polymerase chain reaction (PCR) tests regularly.

The sweet smell of osmanthus lingers in the air at Zhabei Park in Jing'an District.
