Modern Shanghai


We began our 2nd day in Shanghai on the famous promenade known as the Bund.  This is actually the old city wall but most visitors, including us, come here for the views across the river to the ever changing skyline of Púdōng. 
Our 2nd destination for the day was the building on the right that looks a bit like a bottle opener.  A speedy elevator took us 100 floors up to the viewing platform.  The views from here were simply amazing. 
Notice that there are parts of the floor that are glass.  You could look straight down 100 floors.  
Also notice where George's feet are....I am impressed that he got even this close to the edge! 
Have you ever used the bathroom with this kind of view???  A fancy toilet and wow what a view! 
Back outside we could look up at the Shanghai Tower, the world's tallest building!
Nighttime found us back down at the Bund for the fabulous light show.   Modern Shanghai didn't disappoint!
