Huangpu River & the Bund

 

Huangpu river is the most important waterway of Shanghai, handling a majority of its shipping needs.

The river rolls itself, originating from the river Yangtze, Wusong, to the East Chinese sea. The river is yellow and free of ice, and about 71 miles in length (approximately 114 km), a quarter mile in width (around 400 meters), with a general depth of 9 meters ( around thirty feet). Huangpu divides Shanghai in to two main parts, east and west.

 

There is plenty to do at the river with all the cruises that are at the travelers’ disposal. These are scheduled almost everyday travelers can choose between short, as well as long, cruises. These cruises go around the prime waterfront sections of Shanghai; the Yangpu and Nanpu bridges respectively. The complete cruises are much longer, typically 60 kms, and go along the whole golden waterway. Cruising during the day and nighttime is very enchanting and travelers have the opportunity to silently witness the beauty of Shanghai, through its modern architecture.

 

The Bund, commonly called as Zhongshan Road, is a famous waterfront, and is considered as the symbol that stands for the greatness of the city of Shanghai. The Baidu bridge is the point that connects the Suzhou creek to the Huangpu river. This is where the bund starts, extending to the East Jinling Road, traversing an arc of 1500 meters( just under one mile). The Bund is at the western shore of the Huangpu, and the Oriental TV Tower is located just on the opposite side, along with the Jin Mao Tower. This is one of the most popular tourist attractions in Shanghai. The recently constructed Flood Control bank is an architectural attraction that protects the city from flooding. The Marshal Chen Yi statue is an open air podium giving exceptional viewing of the Shanghai Plaza Culture.

 

Another famous area is the western side of the bund, including around 52 different types of buildings. All of these have varying styles of architectural make, like the Gothic, Romanesque, Baroque, Classic, and the Renaissance. The Bund has a vast historical significance. It has stood as the heart of Shanghai’s politics, culture and economy for over several centuries.

 

In the city of Shanghai, accommodation is abundant. Most of the prominent Shanghai serviced apartments provide guests with luxury comfort and modern amenities. The Ascott Shanghai Pudong is a quiet and relaxed serviced residence in Shanghai, providing excellent luxury accommodation facilities for their guests, and is highly recommended by fellow tourists.
