The Pearl of the Orient
China's largest city and global financial hub, Shanghai dazzles with its iconic skyline and cosmopolitan energy. The Bund's colonial architecture faces the futuristic towers of Pudong across the Huangpu River. Explore French Concession's tree-lined streets, lose yourself in traditional Yu Garden, and experience world-class dining and nightlife in this city that never sleeps.

Standing 468 meters tall, this distinctive TV tower with its pink spheres has been Shanghai's most recognizable landmark since 1994. The tower features multiple observation decks including a transparent glass floor at 259m, a revolving restaurant, and the excellent Shanghai History Museum in its base. At night, it transforms into a spectacular LED light display.
