The Bund Highlights: Must-See Features and Attractions
Some information may have been translated by Google Translate
Arguably Shanghai's most-famous tourist attraction, the Bund is a waterfront promenade and famous business district in central Shanghai. Historically, the Bund was the city’s main financial and trading center, and was located within the Shanghai International Settlement, an area under nominal British control between 1843 and 1941. The walking areas extend roughly 1.6 km along the west bank of the Huangpu River. Owing to its historic status and zoning restrictions, the Bund contains fantastic examples of classic Shanghai architecture. For this reason, it is a popular spot for photography. No visit to Shanghai would be complete without a visit to the Bund.

When in Shanghai, you must go to the night view sightseeing route of the Bund in Magic CityWhen in Shanghai, you must go to the night view sightseeing route of the Bund in Magic City. Recently, some friends from other places asked me if they want to come to Shanghai to play, are there many people? I can only say that there are not a little bit of people, especially in places like Disneyland and the Bund, which are iconic check-in spots. (The last three pictures show the flow of people on the Bund) Friends who have never been to Shanghai are really worth coming to see and feel the atmosphere of Magic City. But recently, Shanghai is either stuffy or rainy, either sunny or humid, and many friends from the north may not be able to adapt to the climate here. I have organized a classic night view sightseeing route, classic three-piece set, four-piece set, Oriental Pearl, Waibaidu Bridge, People's Heroes Monument, Chen Yi Square, Customs Building, many internet celebrity check-in points can be covered, the whole process is free of charge, 360 degrees unobstructed view of the river. Route: Zhapu Road Bridge→Waibaidu Bridge Shanghai People's Memorial Tower Bund Sightseeing Avenue Photo shooting route Taken on Zhapu Road Bridge, the famous Master Bridge P3-8 Bund Sightseeing Avenue can be taken at will Post Office Building, can be photographed on Zhapu Road Bridge The building that looks like a monk's hat is the Westin Hotel in the Bund Center of Shanghai, which is now also an internet celebrity check-in pointGlobeTrotterPro77775
I thought Shanghai was beautiful enough, until I came to Pudong🌅 Shanghai, the romantic sunset of the city of love and music Shanghai, this bustling metropolis, not only boasts the prosperity of the Bund, but also the romance of 'the city of love and music'. If you think the sunset at the Bund is already enchanting, then Pudong, this newly popular beautiful sunset spot, is definitely worth exploring. 🚢 Xiepu Road Ferry Terminal, an excellent spot for sunset - Location: Xiepu Road Ferry Terminal, get off at Xiepu Road Station on Metro Line 14, exit from Exit 4, and a 10-minute walk will get you there. - Transportation: Convenient subway transportation allows you to easily reach this beautiful riverside. 🚢 City walk route recommendation - Pingliang Road Ferry Terminal: Take the ferry to experience a different Shanghai style. - Qichang Wharf: Stroll along the river and feel the pulse of the city. 📸 Photography tips - Bridge overpass: Stand on the bridge and use a telephoto lens to capture the distant sunset and the beauty of the Huangpu River. - Check the weather forecast in advance to ensure the appearance of the afterglow. - After sunset: Wait for the moment when the city lights come on, as if you are in a scene from 'La La Land'. - Best shooting time: Sunset time (around 17:30) and blue hour (around 18:30-19:00). - Weekdays: Choose to come on weekdays when there are fewer people, which is more suitable for photography.Olivia.Simmons^37
The Bund is one of the most popular places to visit in Shanghai, and is regarded as the symbol of the city.Jord Hammond74
Comparing with the Bund in Shanghai, I feel sorry for GuangzhouComparing with the Bund in Shanghai, I feel sorry for Guangzhou!|||I recently went to Shanghai, and visited the Bund again. I have to say, the cultural and historical heritage, the modern architecture, and the bustling business, all contribute to the unique charm of the Bund. Many buildings actually feel similar to those on Yanjiang West Road in Guangzhou. But the scale and volume are far from Shanghai. - Historically speaking, Guangzhou, the millennium business capital, was the earliest commercial port. The history of opening to the outside world is clearly the longest, but it was quickly replaced by Shanghai who came from behind. The conservation efforts of Guangzhou for the west bank of Yanjiang West Road are far from Shanghai. Now it has become various wholesale markets and warehouses. I really feel it's a pity.enigma_738636
DeliciousThe only downside: it's only available in Shanghai! For the May Day holiday, the first thing to do in Shanghai is definitely to try the Bund-exclusive ice cream, a check-in must-have! The landmark-shaped ice cream is so photogenic, and all three flavors are delicious! My favorite is the matcha flavor, it's incredibly refreshing and perfect for summer. I roamed the Bund just for these ice creams! When you're tired from walking, head next door to try the Bund's must-visit queue king, even celebrities like Cook, Zheng Kai, and Wu Zun can't stop praising it, so of course, I had to follow the trend and try it! The crab roe noodles and Jiangnan sweet soup are so tasty! There's also the flower-carved drunken crab with super plump crab roe, right at the filming location of 'Blossoms' at Bund 27, where Miss Wang works. It really has the atmosphere of old Shanghai.WorldExplorerDiaries_99

Shanghai skyline at night is unbelievable! Staring at all the skyscrapers from the Bund made us feel inside a sci-fi movie.Blanca + Albert118
On the Bund in Shanghai! Spend a little money to pretend to be a big shot! Dazzling and extravagant~On the Bund in Shanghai! Spend a little money to pretend to be a big shot! Dazzling and extravagant~||Checked in at the popular photo spot on the Bund📸 Dazzling and extravagant~ It really has the taste of a wealthy daughter! Just at 👉2nd floor of No.6 Bund. Order a drink and cry😭 But for the sake of taking beautiful photos, I can only take photos for 5 minutes. The lights are off at 10 o'clock. Sisters, pay attention to the rhythm. You can search for poses in advance. It's also nice to take pictures of the Oriental Pearl Tower through the window hehe~Gabriel Thomas12

It stands out prominently along the Bund. 🌇Jin Mao Tower - Another significant skyscraper in the Pudong area, the Jin Mao Tower features a blend of traditional Chinese architectural elements with modern design. 🏙️Shanghai World Financial Center - With its trapezoidal aperture at the top, this building is not only an impressive part of the skyline but also an architectural marvel. #SpinTheWorld #wecreate #mytravelhacks #localguides #shanghaiSpinTheWorld19
I thought the Bund was beautiful enough! Until I went to Pudong lalaland!Hi~ I'm Heimao I've been to Shanghai more than 10 times, and only then did I discover Pudong This place seems like a replica of the movie 'La La Land' Sunset, evening glow, ferry Feeling the gentle autumn breeze by the river Watching the city lights flicker in the distance This is the correct way to enjoy the night view of Shanghai Location: Xiepu Road Ferry Terminal ■How to get there: Depart from Shanghai Hongqiao Railway Station, take Metro Line 2 to Jing'an Temple Station, transfer to Metro Line 14 to Exit 4 of Xiepu Road Station, and walk straight to the river for 10 minutes ■Time: The period from dusk to blue hour is the most beautiful, approximately 17:30-18:30 Photography spots Sunken runway: You can capture the city's night view in the distance There's a bicycle lane on the left, with the spectacular 'three-piece suit' as the backdrop The arc-shaped runway on the right is very design-oriented There's a red bridge at the back, which gives off a great atmosphere when paired with the yellow light Use a telephoto lens to capture the distant ships, it's like being in Hong Kong Note Avoid going on weekends, as it can get crowded ■Check the weather in advance, if there's a high chance of an evening glow, go for it .The Bund lights up around 7 o'clock, you can wait for it •The evening glow in the first picture is photoshopped, and the construction in the background has also been edited outcollins.the.volans70

The Bund Stealing the Show ❤️#cherryblossom2024 🌸 Amazing! Don't miss this perspective on the Bund!! The perspective of discovering the Bund for the first time is also wonderful! The "water curtains" spraying towards the Huangpu River on the Bund, illuminated by constantly changing neon lights, are like the changing "aurora" spraying wine into the river! Extra quiet stealing! Isn't this a great opportunity to shoot long exposures! Under the long exposure of the camera, these "waterfalls" appear too delicate and slippery! Surprisingly comfortable! Paired with modern architecture in the distance, crowded crowds, and extended street lights, it is indeed a great photography perspective! Everyone, go and give it a try! Looking forward to seeing everyone's works in the comments section!Sadia_N2

Night light in The Bund 💡🚨🔦#heritageplace Every evening from 6pm. to 10pm., The Bund that located at the end of the Nanjing Road Pedestrian Street will put on a light show that highlights the old buildings and the new sides of the city over the Hungpu river with the Oriental Pearl Tower and Shanghai tower. When you are in Shanghai, remember to visit here or you would like to immerse yourself in it, I would recommend you to take the Ferry across the river with only RMB 2 so that you can enjoy the view of both sides from the middle!! Rating: 🌟🌟🌟🌟🌟Seay Doer
No money to play in Shanghai? Come with me for a relaxing walk!Many people know but still want to share the route Places where few people know will soon become crowded through Ctrip... Share some places that are already very popular Take a city walk from afternoon to evening Shanghai Postal Museum - Zhapu Road Bridge - North Bund Riverside - Fair Road Ferry - Taitong Ferry - Pudong Art Museum - Tianshui Love - Dongchang Road Ferry - The Bund The whole journey is about 6km I used to like cycling along this route. I tried to measure it with my feet and found it was not bad~ Can't rush to the mountains and fields, the feeling of long-distance walking in the city is also goodsilas.atticus.winterbourne32

The Bund area looks so much more alive and mesmerising during the evening, once the light been lit up. Plenty of restaurants and shops around for shopping but it can gets too crowded especially when sun starting to set.
Very nice view with a mix culture of the old and modern Shanghai.
Take a boat night tour, plus the sky is beautiful, so the night view is beautiful and the experience is very good. It is a little expensive to add 100 to the card seat. Overall, I am very satisfied. Come back next time I bring my family to Shanghai to play.
Business Hours:The Bund, located in Shanghai, China, is a historic waterfront area along the western bank of the Huangpu River. Renowned for its stunning skyline views, the Bund is lined with iconic architectural landmarks that blend Western and Chinese styles. Strolling along the promenade, visitors are treated to a visual feast of grandiose buildings, including the neoclassical Customs House, the Gothic Revival-style Peace Hotel, and the futuristic skyscrapers of Pudong across the river. The area comes alive
nice view, stunning building, golden hour. a lot of people on the weekend, you may travel during weekday to avoid the crowd. a lot of shop lots to buy souvenir
A waterfront area that is quite famous and popular in Shanghai. The most interesting thing is that you can see the skyscrapers across the river and the most unique is the Shanghai Tower which is the icon of the area. You can also take a cruise ship while traveling around the river, but you will be faced with crowds of people if you come on a weekend or holiday. The best time to visit The Bund is at night because the skyscrapers across the river will be decorated with spectacular LED lights.
