[2025 Shanghai Attraction] Travel Guide for Shanghai World Financial Center (Updated May)

#timetotravel As an architect, I am really fascinated discovering and looking at buildings closely especially the ones that I have seen on TV and read about it for quite awhile. Having been in here and having been on its observatory deck was nothing but just a surreal feeling for me. There are 101 floors in this building and the observatory is on the 100th floor. It is just amazing to see the panoramic view of Shanghai. The weather wasn't that great when we were there but it didn't take the excitement feeling from me. If you are in Shaghai and you want to be in one of the tallest buildings in the world then spare some time to come here. Ticket Price: 180 RMB. Enjoy! #tripblazers #mytripvlog #chinatravel #shanghai #attraction

Attraction name: Shanghai World Financial Centre Location: Lujiazui in Shanghai Pudong The observation deck of the Shanghai World Financial Centre is one of four observatories in this part of Shanghai. For me, the view here is worth the ticket price and the queues are a lot less of those at the Shanghai Tower. Advantages of this view is that you can see the Jin Mao tower and the Oriental Pearl Tower in the same shot (you can’t do that in Shanghai Tower). Also, you can get really close up to the glass window and floor…enjoying superb views on the 100th floor. A must when visiting Shanghai! #visitshanghai #worldfinancialcentre

The Shanghai World Financial Center is a supertall skyscraper located in the Pudong district of Shanghai. It was designed by Kohn Pedersen Fox and developed by the Mori Building Company, with Leslie E. Robertson Associates as its structural engineer and China State Construction Engineering Corp and Shanghai Construction General Co. as its main contractor. It is a mixed-use skyscraper, consisting of offices, hotels, conference rooms, observation decks, and ground-floor shopping malls.

#tripaway I love modern architecture! and the CBD of Shanghai is like a paradise to me! I visited the top of the Shanghai Wolrd Financial Center: simply stunning! The SWFC has been lauded for its design, and in 2008 it was named by architects as the year's best-completed skyscraper. Shanghai World Financial Center is an incredible feat of modern architecture. The observation deck is well worth the trip! It's 100th floor skydeck is certainly impressive to look at: you're surrounded by glass and mirrors #tripaway

The Sea Space Exhibition is a multimedia light and film exhibition created by the Japanese Naked team. It is a dreamy underwater world that is immersed in virtual reality. The exhibition is on the 94th and 4th floors respectively, and you can experience the high-speed elevators of the World Financial Center. Although the exhibition starts at 10 o'clock, it may be because the weather is hot, and FITs like me who are arriving early can enter early. The 94th floor is a hall, and you can enjoy the super invincible night scene of Lujiazui at night! The content of the 4th floor exhibition hall is more and more interactive. It is also very interesting to be sold here. Let's experience it yourself! The key point is not to miss the sardines, show, deep sea and other projects, but also feel the immersive feeling brought by the light and shadow art. Finally, I would like to remind my friends who are self-driving. If you have confidence in the three-dimensional garage, you can stop at the world. Otherwise, it will be convenient to stop at the opposite Shanghai center. Summer, come to Shanghai World Financial Center to experience the cool underwater world!

Working in Lujiazui, my expectations for lunchtime aren't just about a good meal, but also about recharging myself during a short break. I often visit the restaurants in the Shanghai World Financial Center (SWFC), and with the beautiful spring weather, I've recently fallen in love with the terrace restaurants, which perfectly fulfill all my fantasies of a pleasant lunch break~ 🌳The terrace dining atmosphere is absolutely amazing! Here, you're surrounded by carefully arranged greenery and flowers, romantic cherry blossoms in full bloom, blue skies and white clouds overhead, and a gentle breeze. Sitting at the outdoor tables, your body and mind instantly relax. Today, at Fuguy Fugu Restaurant (Pudong SWFC Branch), I enjoyed fugu cuisine on the terrace. The paper-thin fugu sashimi is refreshing and not greasy, perfect for a meal with colleagues. 🎡There's also a limited-time SWFC spring event, which is super interesting! From March 24 to April 6, the spring market is bustling with activity. You can taste local delicacies and specialties, participate in limited-time sales of special-priced goods, and enjoy free courses and new product trials. It's full of surprises to stroll around during your lunch break. The lucky draw for spending a certain amount is also very attractive. You can get one lucky draw entry for every CNY 200 spent in a single day at any SWFC store. If you book a terrace seat at designated restaurants, such as Xingshufu or Fuguy, you can get an extra lucky draw entry, for a total of two chances. The prizes are super generous, all sponsored by various shops in the building~ 📸Don't miss the photo sharing gift event. Come here for lunch during your break, take some photos, and share them. You might just get a surprise~ Enjoying a springtime work lunch here, recharging yourself with delicious food and beautiful scenery, is truly healing!

The city’s rhythm is hypnotic, a perfect blend of motion and illumination. Whether on foot or in a car, this futuristic scene is a must-see in Shanghai! #travelinginchina

#chinatrip Shanghai offers several beautiful spots to view plum and cherry blossoms, typically in late February to early April. Here are some popular places I visited around the city area or not too far from the city centre: 1.Shanghai Botanical Garden in Xuhui distrit, Known for its extensive plum garden, featuring various plum blossom varieties. Big and huge garden to explore with beautiful ponds and lake, its worth destination to visit 2.Jing'an Sculpture Park is a unique and artistic urban park in Shanghai that also offers opportunities to enjoy seasonal flowers, including cherry blossoms. While it's primarily known for its modern sculptures, the park has a Cherry Blossom Avenue: a pathway lined with cherry trees that bloom beautifully in late March to early April, making it a great spot for a relaxed stroll during spring without venturing too far from the city center! 🌸 3. Oriental Pearl Tower in Shanghai's Pudong District, This area is more famous for its iconic skyline and modern architecture, but there are still some lovely places to experience the beauty of spring blossoms. Visitors can enjoy views of the Oriental Pearl Tower and strolling under the blossoms. 4.Shanghai World Financial Center (SWFC) Plaza ;The area around the Shanghai World Financial Center (the "Bottle Opener" building) has some green spaces and ornamental trees, including cherry blossoms, while not a large display, it’s a convenient spot to enjoy blossoms if you’re in the area for business or sightseeing. . #shanghai #spring #cherrybloosom

#travelinginchina Its unique twisting design not only enhances its aesthetic appeal but also helps to reduce wind loads on the structure. The use of sustainable technologies, such as rainwater collection and energy-efficient systems, highlights a commitment to environmentally friendly design. I was impressed by its innovative architecture and the sense of awe it inspires. A visit to this iconic landmark is highly recommended.

#上海樱花 When I passed by today, I just took a casual glance and was stunned! There are actually quite a few large cherry trees planted in the green belt by the road🌸 and large patches of tulips🌷 The pink and white cherry blossom petals sway gently in the breeze, as if competing with the gorgeous tulips next to them. In the past, I only thought that the flowers and plants in the park were beautiful, but I didn’t expect that Shanghai would be so willing to spend so much money on green belts. There are spring surprises hidden in every corner, which is simply beautiful to a new level 🤭 This is not a green belt, it is clearly a secret garden hidden in the city streets. Walking on such a road, my mood becomes unconsciously very good, and it feels like every breath is filled with the sweetness of spring. You don’t have to go to scenic spots specifically, just walking in the streets and alleys, you can enjoy the sight of blooming flowers. This is the charm of Shanghai in spring. Any shot you take will turn out to be a spring blockbuster. Whether you are taking a walk or commuting, you can be healed by this beauty.

I had the chance to visit the Lujiazui area on a cloudy afternoon (Shanghai Financial District) , and while the sky was overcast, the skyline of Shanghai still made for an impressive sight. 🏙️ The towering skyscrapers here, including the Shanghai Tower and Jin Mao Tower, are some of the most iconic in the world. Even on a grey day, the sheer scale and futuristic design of the buildings stand out. 🌥️ I spent a couple of hours walking around, taking in the modern architecture, before the city’s lights were switched on for the evening. While there were fewer tourists than I expected, the area felt vibrant and alive, especially as the skyline started to glow as dusk fell. ✨ Though the weather wasn't ideal, the view of the city from the streets below was still breathtaking, and it made for a memorable experience. If you’re in Shanghai, Lujiazui is a must-see — especially in the evening when the lights come on. It’s one of the city’s most dynamic areas, and even on a cloudy day, it doesn’t disappoint. 🏙️ #celebrateit

If you’ve visited the Bund before, you’ve likely seen the iconic view of Shanghai’s skyscrapers across the river. But have you ever explored the financial district on the other side? 🌉 I decided to check out this side of the Bund one evening, and I was pleasantly surprised! 😯 While it’s not the usual spot for tourists, walking under the towering skyscrapers at night felt truly special. The atmosphere is peaceful and almost magical, with far fewer people around than on the Bund itself. 🌙 The views of the district from the river are stunning, with the colorful lights giving the area a futuristic vibe. 🏙️ While it's not the classic Bund view, the towering buildings up close are still awe-inspiring. If you're looking for a quieter, less crowded experience in Shanghai, this is definitely a spot to check out. It’s free and offers a completely different yet equally impressive perspective of the city. 🌟 #chinatravelitinerary

#getgoing2025 Just visited the Shanghai World Financial Center, and it’s mind-blowing! 🏙 This iconic skyscraper, also known as the "Bottle Opener," is one of the tallest buildings in the world. Its distinctive shape and towering presence are a sight to behold. The highlight? The Sky Walk on the 100th floor. Walking on the glass floor with the city sprawling beneath you is an exhilarating experience. 🏗 The views from up there are simply breathtaking, especially at night when Shanghai is all lit up. 🌟 Visitor tips: 1. Buy tickets online to skip the long queues. 2. Visit in the evening for stunning city lights. 3. Bring a good camera**—the photo ops are endless. 📸 4. **Check out the exhibitions and shops inside the building for a complete experience. Trust me, the Shanghai World Financial Center is a must-visit if you're in Shanghai. The views, the architecture, and the overall experience are unforgettable. 🌆 #ShanghaiSkyline #WorldFinancialCenter #TravelAdventures You’ll leave with incredible memories and some amazing photos! 📸❤️

When I took Metro Line 2 from Pudong Airport to Lujiazui Exit, I saw the towering Oriental Pearl Tower at a glance. It was like seeing an old friend who had been waiting for me for a long time. It felt particularly cordial. I found the hotel, put down my luggage, and couldn't wait to see the charming scenery on both sides of the Huangpu River. Pudong is now full of high-rise buildings. The Shanghai Tower, Shanghai World Financial Center, Oriental Pearl Tower and Jinmao Tower in Lujiazui lead the height of Shanghai. The bright lights after nightfall illuminate the magnificent banks of the Huangpu River. The old Shanghainese’s saying in the early years, “I would rather have a bed in Puxi than a house in Pudong” is long gone. Whether I am strolling on Nanjing Road or leaning against the railing of the Bund, like the Chinese people around me who speak with different accents and many foreign tourists who are from unknown countries, my heart is filled with a deep love for this magical metropolis. It was already chilly in Shanghai in mid-December, but the cold could not stop people's enthusiasm for visiting Shanghai. The bustling Nanjing Road was still crowded, and the Bund was still bustling with people. Those who haven't been to Shanghai for many years are amazed at the tremendous changes in China, those who come frequently are impressed by the rapid changes in Shanghai, and I love every place I have set foot in. I love the young people on the Bund who check in and pose under the lights on both sides of the Huangpu River. I love the elderly who greedily bask in the sun in Jing'an Park, where the birds are singing and the flowers are blooming. I was intoxicated by the bustling crowds coming and going under the flashing neon lights on Nanjing Road, and from time to time I would explore the delicious food from street restaurants and food stores. I followed the navigation and found the ferry terminal on the Huangpu River. It reminded me of the helplessness of being separated by a river back then and made me sigh at the convenience of transportation on both sides of the Huangpu River today. I also like the tray of hot dumplings served to me by the waiter in the small restaurant opposite the twin towers in Nanxiang Ancient Town. I was even moved by the affordable price of 15 yuan for a haircut for men in a regular roadside barber shop. In the shop, I didn't even notice "Tony" whispering mysteriously into the headset. I know that my two-day stay in Shanghai made me feel that I had fallen under the spell of Shanghai, so much so that for many years I have always regarded it as my preferred port of entry and exit when returning to China. I believe Shanghai is the place where I can best feel the pulse of China's modernization process. Perhaps this is the real magic of this city. I love Shanghai, I love this magical city that is loved by Chinese people! ❤️

The whole restaurant had such a nice vibe—very cozy yet reminiscent of British style. The location is perfect near LuJiaZui. 🍳 Brunch Options: Smoked Salmon Omelette: The mushrooms inside were incredibly fragrant, the salmon had a slightly salty flavor, and the omelette itself was perfectly crispy. It’s light enough for a morning meal. 🍕 Black Truffle Pizza: The truffle aroma was absolutely divine! The pizza wasn’t super thin-crust, and the mushrooms were a great touch. 🥗 Fig & Prosciutto Salad: With buffalo mozzarella, it had a rich, creamy taste that wasn’t overwhelming. The sweetness of the figs paired perfectly with the salty prosciutto, achieving a great balance. 🍝 Bolognese Pasta: The addition of cherry tomatoes brought a slight hint of sweetness—highly recommended. ☕ Coffee lovers, you’ll find good options here too! 💵 Average Cost Per Person: 150 RMB 📍 COMMUNE RESERVE (Shanghai World Financial Center Branch) B1-109, Shanghai World Financial Center, 100 Century Avenue, Shanghai #chinatrip #shanghai

I came here with my best friend for dinner, and several dishes were amazing. 🍅Turkish-style Tomato Braised Beef Brisket I haven't had such tender beef brisket for a long time. It's very friendly to me, as I have bad teeth. The tomatoes are also tender, and the taste is just right. 🍖Silk Road Naan Pit Rack Meat This dish looks good in photos, and the burning flame creates a great atmosphere. The pineapple can relieve the greasiness, so you can eat the meat without feeling burdened. 🥤Pomegranate Milk Cap Cup This is a non-alcoholic cocktail.

According to the store manager, the chef also makes Western food, and the fusion dishes are suitable for friends with various tastes.

#magicalxmastrip Who would have thought that a bustling metropolis like Shanghai could capture the magic of Christmas? As a traveler, I was pleasantly surprised to discover the city’s festive spirit. A Winter Wonderland in the East Shanghai transforms into a winter wonderland during the Christmas season. The iconic Bund, illuminated with colorful lights, creates a stunning backdrop for the festivities. The city’s shopping malls, such as the Shanghai World Financial Center and the Super Brand Mall, are decked out in festive decorations, from towering Christmas trees to dazzling light displays. A Taste of Christmas For a taste of Christmas, head to one of Shanghai’s many international restaurants. They offer special Christmas menus featuring traditional dishes like roasted turkey and Christmas pudding. Even local restaurants get into the festive spirit, incorporating Christmas elements into their dishes. A Cultural Experience Beyond the festive decorations and culinary delights, Shanghai offers a unique cultural experience during Christmas. The city’s international churches host Christmas services, providing a spiritual retreat for expats and locals alike. Community groups and choirs organize carol singing events in parks and public spaces, spreading joy and cheer. Whether you’re seeking a festive shopping spree, a delicious Christmas feast, or a cultural experience, Shanghai offers something for everyone.

It's tall and the building's style is unique, so it catches the eye right away! It's located close to the Oriental Pearl Tower, so it's good to stop by when you go to the Oriental Pearl Tower. ㅎㅎ

#cityscape Shanghai's Pudong district is one of the world’s most recognizable skylines, featuring futuristic structures like the Oriental Pearl Tower, the Shanghai World Financial Center, and the Shanghai Tower.
