About Shanghai

Shanghai er Kinas blændende finansby ved Huangpu-floden, hvor en kolonitidens havnefront møder en futuristisk skyline, og gamle stræder gemmer tehuse.

Bund, en floddomenade kantet af statelige banker og hoteller fra begyndelsen af 1900-tallet, vender mod Pudongs tårne over vandet, blandt dem Oriental Pearl Tower, Jin Mao Tower og det snoede Shanghai Tower. Udsigten er mest dramatisk efter mørkets frembrud, når begge bredder lyser op, og flodbåde glider imellem dem.

Top-ranked sights in Shanghai: The Bund (Waitan), Yu Garden (Yuyuan), Shanghai French Concession.
