Bund Night Views

Walk to the Bund. From the viewing platform, you can see skyscrapers across the Huangpu River — including the Oriental Pearl Tower, Shanghai Tower, and Shanghai World Financial Center — shining brightly in the night sky. The light show and architectural lighting complement each other, forming the highlight of the Bund’s night scenery.

Continue walking to Yuyuan Bazaar. At night, the Huxinting Tea House is delicately highlighted by lights. Follow your guide to the Nine-Turn Zigzag Bridge, where the pond reflects colorful lanterns in a dreamlike scene. Lantern festivals may be held during the Spring Festival or special periods, which are well worth seeing.
