The sunset in the Magic City is always enchanting, especially during dusk at Yangpu Riverside.

Starting from the Xiepu Road Ferry Terminal, winter brings sunset times around 5 PM. While this timing might mean missing the perfect shots of Lujiazui's iconic "Four Pieces" skyline or the suspended sun, the sea breeze and golden hues painting the Huangpu River into an orange ocean create a magical scene. Ferries glide through the water as city lights gradually illuminate, and the harbor nightscape beneath Yangpu Bridge is particularly captivating. 🌇 Best Shooting Times & Spots: - 🕑 Arrive at Minsheng Road Ferry Terminal before 16:00, head to the second-level riverside walkway, and stroll leisurely toward Xiepu Road Ferry Terminal. - 🕑 At 16:30, watch the sunset from the "Yangjing Port" pedestrian bridge for stunning golden-hour silhouettes. - 🕑 17:00-17:30: Sunset glow begins, with Lujiazui bathed in dreamy pink-blue tones. - 🕑 Around 17:30: Bridge lights turn on, making Xiepu Road Ferry Terminal ideal for shooting the rotating bridge and portraits. - 🕑 By 18:00: Night lights illuminate Lujiazui and Yangpu Bridge—capture the bridge's night view from the pedestrian bridge or second-floor terrace. - 🕑 At 18:30: Take a 2-yuan ferry ride from Xiepu Road Terminal to Puxi. 📍 Recommended Location: Minsheng Road Ferry Terminal 🚇 Transport: Take Metro Line 14 to Changyi Road Station, then walk 6-8 minutes. 📷 Walking Route: The 1.2 km stretch from Minsheng Road to Xiepu Road Ferry Terminal is perfect for strolling or cycling. Whether you're seeking peaceful city moments or capturing Shanghai's iconic scenery, this area offers a uniquely memorable experience.
