Spectacular example of modern architecture 1000 Trees, 天安千树 (Tiān’ān Qiānshù)

Shanghai is home to some of the most striking examples of modern architecture. However, one city stands out for its creative blend of nature and architecture: 1000 Trees, located on the banks of the Suzhou River in Shanghai's Putuo district. Located very close to the city center, this structure is easily accessible by both metro and bus, and is just a few minutes' walk from Jiangning Road Metro Station. 1000 Trees was designed by the world-renowned British architecture firm Heatherwick Studio. The building rises tier by tier, as if built on the side of a mountain, with a real tree perched atop each column. -It features boutique stores by popular fashion brands and Chinese designers. -Design goods, souvenirs, and sustainable products are prominent. -Bookstores, lifestyle shops, and stalls selling handmade goods are also quite attractive. #travel #chinatravel

Modern Marvels & Timeless Views in Shanghai 🚶♂️🏙️ Get ready for an urban adventure through Shanghai’s must-see icons, blending sleek skyscrapers, buzzing cultural spots, and riverside romance—all in one unforgettable stroll! Start with Nanjing Road Pedestrian Street, the liveliest shopping boulevard in China (Henan Middle Road, Huangpu District, open all day). Dive into laidback morning walks or prime evening people-watching. Pro tip: Early arrival means fewer crowds and soft sunlight for your shots. Don’t miss snaps featuring modern storefronts framed by heritage buildings—super insta-worthy on a sunny day! Next, head to The Bund (Zhongshan East Road, right by the Huangpu River—open all day), Shanghai’s dreamy riverside promenade lined with colonial architecture and shimmering city skylines. For that epic photo, pose with the futuristic Pudong skyline behind you, especially as day turns to neon-lit night. Take a moment to soak up both the city buzz and gentle river breeze—my personal highlight! Finish by hopping onto the Jinling East Road Ferry (No.141 Bund, open 7:00 AM–9:00 PM) for a unique, budget-friendly way to cross the river. The Ferry offers front-row city views, especially on cloudy or rainy days—the contrast with gleaming glass towers is unreal. Pack a light raincoat just in case, as weather shifts quickly. Quick Tips: Wear comfy shoes, as you’ll be on your feet all day. Plan to visit in the early morning or late evening for magical light and fewer crowds. Always keep an eye out for changing weather! #Shanghai #UrbanAdventure #ModernArchitecture #TheBund #CityViews
