Breathtaking Views and an Unforgettable Experience! - Visiting the Shanghai Tower was the highlight of my trip to Shanghai! As the tallest building in China and the second tallest in the world, this architectural marvel truly lives up to its reputation. The observation deck on the 118th floor offers panoramic views of the city that are absolutely jaw-dropping. On a clear day, you can see for miles—skyscrapers, the Huangpu River, and even the distant horizon. It’s like being on top of the world!
The elevator ride itself is an experience. It’s one of the fastest in the world, and you’ll reach the top in just under a minute—smooth and thrilling! Once you step out, the floor-to-ceiling glass windows provide unobstructed views that are perfect for photos. I visited during sunset, and watching the city transition from day to night was magical. The lights of Shanghai slowly coming to life is a sight I’ll never forget.
The staff were incredibly friendly and professional, ensuring everyone had a great experience. The observation deck is spacious, clean, and well-organized, with plenty of seating areas to relax and take in the views. There’s also a small café where you can grab a drink or snack while enjoying the scenery.
Whether you’re a tourist or a local, the Shanghai Tower is a must-visit. It’s not just about the height; it’s about the feeling of awe and wonder you get when you see the world from such a incredible vantage point. Don’t miss this iconic experience—it’s worth every penny!

A must for every Shanghai visitor - I was able to enter the tower without any problems with the QR code sent to me. The wait was very short.
In the evening, there was a great view of the surrounding neighborhood, Bund and Oriental Pearl Tower.
Likewise, you could take pictures very well in the dark!

Marvellous view at the top of Shanghai - It was the second time I went up on Shanghai Tower — first time was July 2023. But this time we had the chance to visit the Pendular as well.
Shanghai Tower is the highest tower in Shanghai with the highest floor open to the public in the world and the world fastest high speed lift.
The view is marvellous (with good weather). You can see most of Shanghai's most famous buildings in one sitting.
We hadn't booked tickets beforehand but went to the ticket office at the tower itself and didn't have any problems.
The Pendular and the story behind it was very interesting and worth a visit.

Shanghai Tower: Must see! - Simply put: a MUST do! Brilliant in every way. So much to take in: we went mid- morning before the tourists, which was great. Excellent views of Shanghai. You should do the full tour, as the top part about the buildings ‘damper’ system and the internal light show with the Jade ornament is to be seen to be believed! A truly amazing morning seeing this building internally & externally. This can only be rated as 10/10.

Amazing - Astonishing, amazing, no words.
This visit was the icing on the cake of our family trip to Shanghai.
Booking by Travel China Guide was easy and clear. Very good service.

Great views but not much... - Great views but not much else (unless you like machines dispensing candy floss). The tower wasn't very busy when I went, so I was free to roam. But there wasn't a great deal to do - comparable buildings provide more information about what you can see in each direction. This would be a great addition.

Scam charge me doble for nothing - This is a SCAM do not buy.
Is half of the price once you get here and you don’t even have to do a Line or stick to the hours this “tour” gives you

Bad service - No chance to access the observation deck with the tickets provided. Very unclear message how to exchange a bar code to QR code. Finally managed to enter but it was after contacting the support center.
