The Bund

Shanghai · Selected attraction

The Bund

The Bund lines the west bank of the Huangpu River, pairing landmark historic buildings with sweeping views of Pudong's skyline.

Why it matters

The Bund

The Bund is more than a skyline viewpoint. Its riverfront buildings trace Shanghai's development after the opening of the port. Facades from different periods and architectural styles form a walkable corridor through the city's modern architectural history. Across the river, Lujiazui shows in one view how Shanghai evolved from a port city into an international metropolis.
