Overview

Take a 45-minute boat ride on the Huangpu River. On one side, the skyscrapers of Lujiazui; on the other, the century-old buildings of the Bund. Only from the middle of the river can you see both sides at once – a night view you simply won't find on land. If it's your first time in Shanghai, this cruise is a must.
Unique waterfront perspective – seeing a city from the water offers a completely different angle. Skyscrapers and landmarks transform into a living canvas – a visual thrill that no street-level view can replicate.
Romantic and relaxing escape – leave the crowded streets behind. Enjoy a gentle breeze, the soft lapping of waves, and quiet moments with friends or loved ones. It's a peaceful interlude that slows down time – a perfect breather in any busy itinerary.
Perfect photo opportunities – from panoramic skyline shots to stunning reflections on the water, every frame is worth capturing. These images will become some of the most treasured souvenirs of your journey.

What to expect

  1. Admission ticket included
    Step aboard this 45‑min Huangpu River night cruise and prepare to see Shanghai like never before. If this is your first time here, we recommend it – it's worth the price and not to be missed.

    At the very center of the river, you can enjoy an unobstructed panoramic view of both waterfronts simultaneously. On one side is the futuristic Lujiazui skyline, with landmarks like the Oriental Pearl Tower and Shanghai Tower shining brilliantly and glittering with dazzling lights; on the other side is the historic Bund, its century‑old buildings glowing warmly under golden lights, quietly telling the profound story of Shanghai's heritage. This is the only place where you can take in both old and new Shanghai at a single glance – something simply impossible from the shore.

    What you take away is not just a collection of stunning photographs, but also a genuine feeling of "I am truly in Shanghai." Many travelers say this hour is the most memorable part of their entire journey.
