Built in 2010, this double-decker, cable-style bridge not only spans across the Huangpu River, but it also connects the two districts of Minghang and Pudong. (drone)

How to get there

This image was taken with a drone from the Shanghai Ferry Duhang Pier. I recommend taking a taxi to the ferry and then walking to the GPS coordinates to arrive at the exact spot I launched the drone. Once at the stop, the Minpu Bridge will be south of the pier. Address: Shanghai Ferry Duhang Pier, Shendu Hwy, Minhang Qu, Shanghai Shi, Trung Quốc, 201108

Tips

When to go

Best season

All months

Best time

Morning, Mid-day, Late afternoon
This view of the Minpu Bridge from Shanghai Ferry Duhang Pier can be enjoyed all year round!
You can find similar conditions during the day, but I recommend visiting this spot in the morning. There will be some fog in your frame and the sun will shine directly onto the bridge.

Field tips

Before flying a drone, check and follow local drone regulations and permit requirements.
Experiment with the height and proximity of your drone to the bridge. This bridge's architecture is intricate, so there are many different perspecrives for you to capture.
To create a sense of symmetry, position your drone in the exact center of the bridge.
