The Bund - Shanghai

A typical lazy hazy morning strolling along the Bund, boats ply the river and tourists take photos. The Bund is a famous waterfront regarded as the symbol of Shanghai for hundreds of years. It runs on the west bank of Huangpu River from the Waibaidu Bridge to Nanpu Bridge and winds 1500 meters in length. It's also called Zhongshan Dong Yi Lu (East Zhongshan 1st Road),

The west side of the Bund is the famous for 26 various buildings of different architectural styles including Gothic, Baroque, Romanesque, and neo-Classicism, it's also the perfect spot to view the evolving skyline of crammed with skyscrapers, including the new Shanghai Tower in Pudong.

The 1,700-meters long flood-control wall, known as 'the lovers' wall', located on the side of Huangpu River from Huangpu Park to Xinkai River, once was the most romantic corner in Shanghai in the last century.
