The sunset in the Magic City is always enchanting, especially during dusk at Yangpu Riverside.

Starting from the Xiepu Road Ferry Terminal, winter brings sunset times around 5 PM. While this timing might mean missing the perfect shots of Lujiazui's iconic "Four Pieces" skyline or the suspended sun, the sea breeze and golden hues painting the Huangpu River into an orange ocean create a magical scene.
