The time period last year was better. I took my children to see the Oriental Pearl Tower and feel the bustling metropolis. Standing on the second ball, I watched the scenery on both sides of the Huangpu River, felt the culture of Shanghai, and watched the dinner at night. It was a good trip.

We traveled from Taipei to Shanghai and took our children to the Oriental Pearl Tower. The weather was fine. We took the elevator to the main sphere of three big balls. We can stand at different heights to enjoy the beautiful city scenery on both sides of the Huangpu River, especially walking on the fully transparent sightseeing gallery. Feeling the feeling of "air walk" is great! Standing on a high place overlooking the panoramic view of the Devil City... It is a memorable and beautiful enjoyment and it is very regrettable! 🙂

In the morning, the Oriental Pearl Tower, which departed from Huangpu District, suddenly got foggy, and everything was unclear, white, and the fog was scattered in the afternoon, and the night view was seen. I am very satisfied with the tower height and view. In addition to the wind, it is a little cold. The glass ring viewing platform is really cold. I am really worried that my luggage and I will be overweight.
How can you not go to Shanghai to see the Oriental Pearl Tower? Standing on the transparent glass plank road, I found out how small humans can be. On the tower, see the cars flying below as small as ants, and standing on the Oriental Pearl Tower, how great we humans are! We also punched in the famous "three-piece suit" observation deck. Go next time
Overlooking Shanghai from the Oriental Pearl TV Tower, the scenery is beautiful, and the dining in the revolving cafeteria, watching the sunset and night view, is superb. The historical development exhibition hall has restored the social development situation of each period through a large number of simulation models, concise and clear, and the figure wax figure is realistic, it is worth seeing
