This image was taken of the Shanghai Tower during its annual light show. I stood at The Bund waterfront area (west side of Huangpo River) and faced towards the Shanghai Tower (east of the Huangpu river). The easiest way to get there is by taking the metro, then walking.
By Metro:
- Closest Station: Nanjing East Rd (Lines 2 & 10)
- Take ‘Exit 1’
- Head northeast on Nanjing E Rd toward the waterfront until you reach the GPS coordinates
