Shanghai. This area is across the river, so went via the Bund Sightseeing
Tunnel and was entertained with a "groovy" light show while traveling
beneath the Huangpu River.
Walked over to the Shanghai World Financial Center Observatory and got
tickets for all three observation decks. Although this is not the worlds'
tallest building, it has the highest observatory. The building is shaped
like a bottle opener at the top. The first skywalk was on the 100th floor,
located 474 meters above ground. At the top of the "bottle opener" you walk
on a transparent glass floor walkway. Amazing views in every direction.
After taking way too many pictures, I headed down to the 97th floor, where
when weather permits, the glass roof opens. The last stop was to the 94th
floor for more views.
Had originally planned on making it an observation tower marathon, and
visiting many of these fabulous buildings in Shanghai, but as the famous
Chinese pollution was finally catching up with us, decided to take another
psychedelic journey through the tunnel and walk along the Bund, take in the
scenery and do some people watching before heading back to the ship.
After some long days touring, I am looking forward to a couple of sea days
before arriving in Hong Kong. Fingers crossed, that the situation there will
not prevent us from docking in Hong Kong.
