Pearl Tower |
When visiting Shanghai, usually the 1st pace to visit is the Bund. The vista on the other side of the river is spectacular with the iconic Pearl Tower some of the tallest buildings in the world here. Therefore 2nd off the list would be a visit to the Pearl Tower. It looks like a rocket and have fantastic 360 deg viewing galleries. Ticket is RMB 120 per person. Try not to visit on a public holidays for even on non, the glaring loudhailers used by the tour group leader is really annoying. The best view would be the outdoor platform with see through glass floor. Warning: Acrophobic are not welcome!!
Standing on Air!
Hold on tight!
Fantastic Views
