Wonderful views on a sunny clear smog free day. I’d be reluctant to visit on those days where air quality is an issue - so be warned.

This was some sort of re-bottled water - who knows where it came from. It was horrible!

beautiful night view but too many people must line up where you want to go

Recommend to go up in nighttime. Night view is quite amazing. If you want higher observatory, It's better to visit shanghai tower next to SWFC. Always crowded.

One of the tallest buildings in the world. Brilliant view over the city. Very nicely illuminated at night
-
The contemporary and innovative heart of the city. During the night become an amazing show of lights.
