The Bund
The Shanghai skyline, also known as "The Bund," is a must-see at night. Follow East Nanjing Road to a raised promenade overlooking The Bund. Bright lights from the Oriental Pearl Tower, the Shanghai World Financial Center and other skyscrapers are reflected in the Huangpu River as equally brilliantly lit boats pass by. Walk far enough along The Bund and you will find a few restaurants and bars, so take in the sights over a drink or some dumplings.
Catching a photo of the Shanghai skyline might be difficult with the summer crowds, but the view is breathtaking. [Daniel Byrnes/China.org.cn] |
