Show More ReviewsThe Oriental Pearl Tower is a landmark in Shanghai's Lujiazui district and a must-see for visitors. The park includes observation decks of varying sizes. From the observation deck, you can enjoy panoramic views of skyscrapers like the Shanghai Tower and the Shanghai World Financial Center, with city streets, buildings, and lush greenery below. The vertically suspended glass walkway offers a thrilling experience. During the day, photograph the tower against a backdrop of blooming flowers. The blue sky and white clouds against the backdrop of the purple and red flowers create a fresh and grand effect. It's recommended to enter the park in the afternoon, first exploring the indoor exhibition halls, and then ascend the tower in the evening to witness the sunset, taking in both the daytime city views and the dazzling nighttime cityscape. Purchase tickets online in advance to avoid queues and combine your visit with the Lujiazui Riverside Promenade for a one-stop experience of Shanghai's vibrant urban landscape.
