Shanghai’s best-known attraction is impressive any time of the day. Still, it’s at its most glam in the evening when floodlighting illuminates the colonial piles and the neon across the river, where Pudong gaudily glitters. Take a stroll along the waterfront walkway and watch the world go by.

Bund Tourist Tunnel
