Century Park is great.
Jing'an Temple. On line 2 a few stops west of People's Square.
Xin Tian Di. One stop south of People's Square on line 1.
Another vote for the French Concession (Hengshan Rd exit on line 1, south of People's Square) and Yu Garden (take a taxi - tricky to find - have the concierge at the hotel write the request for the driver). I wouldn't take the River Cruise - takes too much time. Just go to the park on the Puxi side (where Nanjing Rd hits the Bund), then take the metro to the Pudong side and go to the park over there.
Warning: don't fall for the 'art school' or 'tea/coffee shop' scams - young people on Nanjing Rd and around People's Square approach you and talk you into going with them, where you and some of your money will be separated.
