Oriental Pearl Tower (Dongfang Mingzhu) - Shanghai Oriental Pearl Tower is located in Pudong Park in Lujiazui, Shanghai. This 468 meters high tower is the world’s sixth and China’s second tallest TV and radio tower. However, even more alluring than its height is the unique architectural design that makes Oriental Pearl Tower one of the most attractive places anywhere. You will visit the Municipal History Museum which is located in the tower’s pedestal.
The Oriental Pearl TV Tower consists of three main full-scope sightseeing spheres. Each of these spheres offers an observation deck. Visitors can enjoy the breathtaking view of Shanghai at different heights. We will take an elevator up to glass-bottomed sightseeing floor at 259 meters and the main sightseeing floor at 263 meters. -
The Bund (Wai Tan) - Your guide will take you to the Bund Sightseeing Tunnel which is a tourist attraction consisting of slow-moving underground vehicles moving between the Bund and Lujiazui accompanied by light and sound effects in the tunnel.
Coming out of the tunnel, you will be just at the Bund which is called Waitan in Chinese and is a waterfront area located at the west bank of the Huangpu Rive in central Shanghai. The Bund houses 52 buildings of various architectural styles, generally Eclecticist, but with some buildings displaying predominantly Romanesque Revival, Gothic Revival, Renaissance Revival, Baroque Revival, Neo-Classical or Beaux-Arts styles, and a number in Art Deco style. - Shanghai Museum (Shanghai Bowuguan) - Though Shanghai is known to most visitors as a modern metropolis, it possesses a profound history and culture. Shanghai Museum is for you to take in this point. Bronze wares, ceramics, coins, jade articles, sculptures, seals, and calligraphy and paintings from different dynasties are gathered here. Among all collections, the most treasured one is the Dake Bronze Tripod dating back to the Western Zhou Dynasty
