▶The Bund
The Bund is a historic waterfront district located along the Huangpu River in Shanghai and is one of the city’s most iconic landmarks. In the late 19th and early 20th centuries, many Westernstyle buildings were constructed here, especially those housing European and American banks and trading companies. At the time, Shanghai was flourishing as a global trading hub, and The Bund symbolized this commercial prosperity. Today, the buildings of The Bund have been wellpreserved and are home to financial institutions, luxury hotels, and major tourist attractions. A walk along The Bund offers visitors a striking contrast between the historic architecture and the modern skyscrapers that dominate the skyline across the river, allowing one to experience both Shanghai’s past and future in a single place. The Bund is particularly captivating at night when it is illuminated, attracting large numbers of visitors and making it one of the most popular tourist destinations in Shanghai.
