 View from the Jinmao
Building by jono84
On the other side you'll be surprised by the number of shiny new high-rise office blocks towering above; quite a comparison to the ageing Bund.
Here, you'll no doubt be greeted by fleets of small children begging, but however tempting it may seem, the worst thing you can do is give them money......... as i found to my expense!! Once the word gets around, before you know it you'll be surrounded with hoards of them expecting the same!! So unless you're feeling extremely generous or have money to burn, then do the same as everybody else and just say no!!
Anyway, the Oriental Pearl Tower.
Expect for Y50 of your money, to have to queue for a LONG time, but be thrilled with the view from the top. There are great views here at sunset, of the lighting up Bund and Nanjing Lu. The museum below is also well worth a look, but allow some time because it is large!!
However, for the same price, i found the view from the 88th floor of the Jinmao Building better, without having to wait in a queue. (There is also a rather nice cafe on one of the basement floors). It also has a hollow section on the top 30-or-so floors where you can peer down from the top. Leave a Comment Directions: Lujiazui Station (Metro Line 2)

 View from PuDong Waterfront by MaosRedArmy
While it is only my preference, I would encourge first time visitors to Shanghai to see both views of the Shanghai waterfront - from PuDong and PuXi.
The view from PuDong is a look back at Shanghai's past at the various architectures visible on the other side of the Huangpo River.
Also, there is a Starbucks on the PuDong side, which allows you to sip a Latte with probably one of the best views in the world. Leave a Comment Address: PuDong WaterfrontDirections: Near Lujiazui Station (Metro Line 2) and TV Pearl Tower

The base of the tower consists of a lobby, a shopping mall and science "fantasy city." Various public and physical plant facilities occupy the two-level basement. The five spheres are designed as a "space hotel" and arranged like a cluster of beads. The observation deck is on the first upper level, at a height of 250-295 meters and a diameter of 45 meters. The so-called space module is even higher at 350 meters and 16 meters in diameter. This observation floor and entertainment area is reserved for special parties and distinguished guests. The antenna extends yet another 118 meters above the building. It transmits TV programs from nine different channels and radio programs from ten FM stations. The tower is equipped with spectacular external lighting, which makes the entire structure colorful and bright.
At the ground floor, the Pearl Tower boasts a magnificent lobby, a sleek elevator zone and an extensive shopping mall. The lower sphere, at 50 meters in diameter, is a self-contained amusement park, with attractions and rides such as a trip through the universe, a tour through space, a time tunnel and an observation corridor.
The Oriental Pearl Tower is a multi-functional establishment satisfying virtually every need of visitors and patrons, including tourism, dining, shopping, entertainment, boarding and Audio & Video Broadcasting. It has already become one of the symbolic buildings and tourism resorts in Shanghai. It is also honored as one of the ten best views in Shanghai Leave a Comment Address: Lujiazui, Pudong, ShanghaiDirections: Lujiazui Station (Metro Line 2)

1. Avoid weekends and holidays - otherwise you will spend a whole day standing in the queue.
2. There are quite a few kinds of tickets. I would suggest you buy the ticket with buffet inside the 2nd top ball (also includes visit to the top). It isn't much more expensive than the visiting tickets, however, you can get to sit at the spinning restaurant and have more time to enjoy the wonderful view of the city. The food is not too bad.
3. Go when the weather is clear and sky is blue. Otherwise u may not see much when u get up there. Leave a Comment Directions: Lujiazui Station (Metro Line 2)

Visitors travel up and down the tower in double-decker elevators. Once you reach your destination, you will be amazed at the variety of activities available as the various spheres and columns actually house places of interest, commerce, and recreation. The inner tower is a recreational palace, while the Shanghai Municipal History Museum is located in the tower's pedestal. The large lower sphere has a futuristic space city and a fabulous sightseeing hall. From here, on a clear day a visitor can see all the way to the Yangtze River. The base of the tower is home to a science fantasy city. The five smaller spheres are a hotel that contains twenty-five elegant rooms and lounges. The pearl at the very top of the tower contains shops, restaurants, (including a rotating restaurant) and a sightseeing floor. The view of Shanghai from this height fills you with wonder at the beauty that surrounds you. When viewed from the Bund at night, the tower's three-dimensional lighting makes it a delight of brilliant color.
Admission Fee: CNY 50
Opening Hours: 08:00 to 21:00
Recommended Time for a Visit: Four and a half hours Address: Pudong Park in Lujiazui, Shanghai.Directions: Lujiazui Station (Metro Line 2)

 Pearl Radio Tower, viewed
from Jin Mao Tower by Icemaiden02
Jin Mao Building is the third tallest in the world. Take the Jin Mao Tower up to the 88th Floor (observatory deck with floor space of 1,500+ square meters), where you'll be able to see this spectacular view of Pu Xi for RMB 50 (US$6). The tower has the best elevators available. Two direct elevators operate at the speed of 9.1 meters (nearly 30 feet) per second that can send visitors from the ground floor to the 88th floor for only 45 seconds. There are also five to six elevators every 10 floors, which reduce waiting-time to 35 seconds even during rush hours.
However, few recommendations: (1) Dont go on weekends and (2) Dont go if it's even mildly cloudy or hazy (the view is hard in bad weather). Leave a Comment Directions: Lujiazui Station (Metro Line 2)
