The Bund
Shanghai's iconic mile of colonial-era banks and trading houses facing the futuristic Pudong skyline across the Huangpu — one of the world's great urban panoramas. Extraordinary at night.

🌟 Hodophs insider tipWalk the Bund at sunset from south to north and watch the Pudong towers light up as darkness falls. Then cross the river on the tourist tunnel or ferry for the best view back toward the colonial facades.
