"Sleepless Nights on the Bund | Capturing Shanghai's 24-Hour Spotlight"

How can you visit Shanghai without going to the Bund? Today, we bring you an ultra-practical one-day itinerary for the Bund, where you can soak in centuries of history while capturing stunning photos 🤳 🚶 One-Day Itinerary 📍 10:00 AM - The Bund Historic Buildings: Start at Waibaidu Bridge and stroll southward slowly. The Customs House, Peace Hotel, and No. 18 The Bund—each building has a century-old story. This is also the perfect spot to snap photos of the "Bund Trinity"! 【Pro Tip】Avoid weekend crowds—mornings are quieter for better photos! 📍 12:00 PM - The Bund Origin: Hungry after exploring? Head to The Bund Origin for food. Recommended spots: ① Xinghualou (The Bund Branch): Time-honored Cantonese dim sum Address: No. 1 Zhongshan East Road, Huangpu District ② Dahuchun (The Bund Branch): Shanghai-style pan-fried buns Address: No. 22 Zhongshan East 2nd Road, Huangpu District 📍 2:00 PM - The Bund Viewing Platform: Walk north from The Bund Origin to the viewing platform for a close-up panorama of the Huangpu River and Lujiazui. Bring a telephoto lens for epic shots! 【Real Talk】The blue hour at dusk is the most beautiful but also the most crowded—arrive by 4:00 PM to secure a spot. 📍 4:00 PM - Jinling East Road Ferry Pier: Spend ¥2 for a ferry ride across the river. Take the Dongjin Line, and you’ll arrive right in Lujiazui. 📍 5:00 PM - Shanghai Tower/Shanghai World Financial Center: Head up to the 118th-floor observatory of Shanghai Tower (ticket: ¥180) for a breathtaking sunset view over the city! 🍜 Food Recs ✅ Dahuchun Pan-Fried Buns: Crispy outside, tender inside, bursting with broth ✅ Lao Zheng Xing Shanghainese Cuisine: Authentic braised pork and eel in hot oil ✅ Butterfly Pastry: Signature treat from the Park Hotel ⚠️ Handy Tips 1. Wear comfortable shoes—you’ll walk a lot along the Bund. 2. Bring a jacket—it’s windy by the river. 3. The last ferry departs at 8:00 PM—mind the time!
