The Bund: Where Past Meets Its Future

#chinatravel Walking along The Bund at sunset is like stepping into a postcard. On one side, you’ve got these grand colonial buildings that whisper stories of old Shanghai, and on the other, the futuristic skyline of Pudong lights up like a sci-fi movie. I loved grabbing bubble tea and just people-watching—locals doing tai chi, tourists snapping pics, and couples taking wedding photos. It’s this perfect blend of history and modernity that makes Shanghai so unique. If you’re here, don’t miss the night view when the buildings light up—it’s pure magic. #shanghaivibes #thebund #eastmeetswest

Hi Terii
The Bund

Shanghai’s Iconic Riverside Gem—The Bund 🌃🏙️ Get ready to soak in the dramatic cityscape of Shanghai, where the glamour of The Bund lights up the Huangpu riverside with dazzling modern towers right beside elegant heritage buildings. It’s a day-to-night must for snap-happy explorers and architecture lovers! 🧭 Highlights & Route: Stroll along Zhongshan East Road, hugging the river for postcard views of both historic Western-style facades and futuristic skyscrapers across the water. Don’t miss the view from the promenade—mornings show off the architecture in crisp daylight, while the evenings set the scene ablaze with neon and shimmering reflections on the river. 📸 Insta-worthy spots: Stand along the railing by Huangpu River for sweeping panoramas of Pudong’s skyline, especially the glittering towers at night. Close-up shots of classic stone buildings shine brightest with moody clouds or rainy reflections—don’t fear a little drizzle, it just adds to the drama! 🌧️ Tips & Precautions: The Bund feels magical both day and night, so arrive before sunset and linger for the transformation. Crowds build fast in the evening (especially on weekends), so stake out your photo spot early. When rain clouds roll in, a waterproof jacket is smarter than an umbrella—wind can whip up quick and send umbrellas flying! Most of the Bund is outdoors, so watch out for slippery pavements if it’s wet. #Shanghai #TheBund #Cityscape #NightView #ArchitectureLover
