The Bund in Shanghai is a famous scenic area along the Huangpu River. A stroll along the riverbank offers views of the modern skyscrapers of Lujiazui on the opposite bank, including landmarks such as the Oriental Pearl Tower and Jin Mao Tower. The Bund also features numerous classical European-style buildings, such as No. 1 to No. 33 on the Bund, many of which were formerly bank buildings. In the early morning, many locals exercise, and at night, the area is brightly lit with stunning river views. Nearby attractions include Nanjing Road Pedestrian Street and Yu Garden, both within walking distance. The area offers a variety of dining options, including Nanxiang steamed buns, pan-fried dumplings, and other local Shanghai cuisine. Transportation is convenient, with subway lines 2 and 10 providing easy access. It is recommended to visit in the late afternoon to enjoy both the sunset and the night view.
The river view is beautiful, but it's windy and a bit cold.

The view of the Bund is quite nice. I initially thought the damper demonstration was meant to use light and shadow to explain the working principle, but it turned out to be just a light show, which I personally felt was unnecessary. However, science and engineering enthusiasts might want to check it out in person.
Отличная обзорная площадка на 360 градусов, хороший вид на набережную Вайтань и Шанхайскую Жемчужину. Экскурсия стоит своих денег, однозначно рекомендую Один только минус - окна были грязноваты..

It was alright. Although it was crowded, I managed to do most of the rides. I set a record of 20,000 steps in a single day for the first time in my life. It was quite tiring for my legs. If you have kids, a stroller is really great. You can rent one at the entrance, and the price is reasonable.
I went on a sunny Sunday, and it was incredibly crowded. I booked the Express Pass in advance, which allowed me to enjoy all the popular attractions without any problems. I truly experienced the joy of unrestricted access! The overall experience was excellent!

The November anniversary sale combined with the birthday month ticket discounts resulted in an absolute explosion in crowds. Parking was severely limited; I had to circle around many times. For performances, you basically had to arrive 30 minutes early to queue, otherwise they wouldn't let anyone in once the seats were full. I went at 2 PM and left at 6 PM, so I only managed to see two shows.
It's changed so much compared to 2019! It's much more educational for kids now. They even have a permanent Ultraman exhibit – no boy can resist that! 🤣 The birthday month activities are really good; I saw the show I missed last time, and all the animals are doing great here.

Tickets are discounted for those celebrating their birthday in November, so I went with my mother. Overall, it was pretty good, except the lions, pandas, white tigers, and cheetahs all seemed listless and were sleeping. However, the zoo had some animal shows scheduled at different times, which were worth checking out.
There are many animals and many unique things to see. The raccoons are incredibly cute, and the bears are very intelligent. The animal shows are excellent. Watching the animals by boat is very pleasant, but watching the staff feed them from the sightseeing bus is just so-so. The signage is still unclear, and the amusement area seems quite far apart.

As expected of the world's second tallest building, the night view is absolutely unbeatable, incredibly beautiful. It offers a panoramic view of Shanghai, with the Bund and the old Shanghai Bund right below you – it feels so real.
Overall, it's a pretty good place, suitable for traveling with children. The elevator there is the fastest, reaching 18 meters per second, offering panoramic views of the Bund in Shanghai – the scenery is breathtaking.

10時ぐらいに向かい、列もなく非常に早く入場できました。中に入ると、映画で見るような中国の歴史的な建物があります。雨の日だったのか人はあまりおらず、非常に快適でした。間違いなく最高の観光地で、上海を訪れるならここは必ず入れるべきです。価格も非常に安く、本当におすすめです。
It seems ok, not the best that I have seen in China or in Shanghai. What I like the most was the market area which surrounds the temple: full of shops and really typical.

We were there from 12-5pm.5 hours and I think there's still places that we missed. The children love the place. The show is amazing. Many small rooms to explore. From vr rooms to haunted house to many performances. Worth it
There are many attractions, mostly performances. My favorite was the main show, "Eternal Love," the actors were very professional, and the park staff were very friendly. 👌🏻 I hope there will be more promotional activities; I'd love to come back again.

Nanjing Road Pedestrian Street stretches approximately 1,200 meters, lined with shops. Modern buildings interspersed with old European-style buildings, and the endless display of vertical shop signs creates a unique charm, especially at night when neon lights flicker. You can also take a ride on a "clang clang" (a miniature tram) to immerse yourself in the flavor of old Shanghai. The pedestrian street features an asymmetrical layout, with a 4.2-meter-wide "golden belt" running through the entire street. This belt is home to public amenities such as seating, shopping kiosks, information booths, billboards, sculptures, streetlights, waste bins, telephone booths, and 34 uniquely shaped flower beds. Century-old stores like Wing On Department Store and Hualian Department Store remain, interspersed with modern commercial buildings, creating a "worldwide architectural exposition." The street is also dotted with creative sculptures, vintage streetlights, and carved manhole covers, creating an artistic atmosphere.
Shanghai's Nanjing Road Pedestrian Street is one of the few pedestrian streets that perfectly blends classicism and prosperity. Strolling along Nanjing Road Pedestrian Street, you can feel both the weight of history and the prosperity of the present.

Definitely a must try if you’re first time in Shanghai! A nice view of Shanghai famous skyscrapers. The trip was roughly 45-60mins. You need to change to digital tickets at the machine before entering (can pick what hour you wanna board). Queue is smooth, we boarded less than 15mins)
Well worth the money, the skyline view is fantastic. We paid another 100 Yuan to get access to the front of the cruise ship with some snacks and drinks included. You also get a nice scarf as a gift.
