A Night Illuminated by Light: Encountering the Face of Shanghai at The Bund

Shanghai's night comes alive at The Bund. Walking along the Huangpu River, it feels as if the entire city breathes light, with the Oriental Pearl Tower's glow across the river shining exceptionally bright. During the day, the classical architectural beauty catches your eye, but at night, all the buildings transform into a dazzling spectacle, as if they come to life. Leaning against the riverside railing with a gentle breeze brushing past, the night view felt more intimate than any observation deck could offer. When a cruise ship slowly glides by and the light reflects off the rippling water, the beauty is so surreal it feels like a dream. Even the city's noise becomes a background melody, and the lights before your eyes convey the vibrant energy of Shanghai. The vivid atmosphere that no photo can capture, and me, standing still in the midst of it all. In the moment when the Oriental Pearl Tower sparkles, a wave of emotion hit me—'Ah, I’m truly in Shanghai.' 📍 Shanghai The Bund
