Chapter 8: First Experience on the Bund

The place where Wang Jun and Li Mengshan arrived was the Lover's Wall on the Bund, which was about 1,700 meters in length. The two of them slowly browsed along the Lover's Wall from left to right, and then walked onto the sightseeing platform. Wang Jun observed it and sightseeed.
The platform is built on an empty box-type flood control wall extending towards the Huangpu River, and the floor is paved with floor tiles and granite.
On the side facing the river, there are thirty-two viewing balconies with floral iron railings, sixty-four pillar-style square lamps, and twenty-one pavilions of different shapes. There are marble seats of different shapes that tourists can use at any time.
Come and have a rest. On the west side of the sightseeing platform, there is an evergreen green belt all year round. Even though the green fence provides a breathtaking scenery, it is also a safe protection zone for tourists.
After that, the two people boarded the sightseeing tunnel. The Bund Pedestrian Sightseeing Tunnel is a passage connecting the two business and tourist areas of Puxi The Bund and Pudong Lujiazui. Tourists ride in a closed sightseeing car and complete the high-speed "traveling through the earth" in just a few minutes.
A technological dream journey, witnessing the mysterious starry sky and vast ocean, driving through the mantle and core of the earth in the boiling magma, and listening to the majestic sound that interacts with the landscape.
After admiring the spectacular scenery of the Huangpu River, we took the sightseeing tunnel to Lujiazui, where Shanghai's iconic Oriental Pearl Tower stood in front of us. The Oriental Pearl Tower stands in Pudong, facing the Bund [World Architecture Expo] in Puxi across the river. The two queued up to buy tickets.
, 90 yuan per person, boarded the 350-meter-high space capsule. It was the first time for both of them to board such a high-altitude glass capsule, and they were a little worried and very excited.
The two of them were lying on the fence of the Guangguang River, looking at both sides of the Pujiang River. Buildings were rising from the ground. The prosperity of Shanghai was in front of their eyes. Walking around the Guangguang Corridor, the two of them greedily admired the Shanghai-style style of the international metropolis of Shanghai, as if they were under construction.
The ambition and pride of New Shanghai are reflected in this tower.
The two took photos with their mobile phones and captured no less than 20 wonderful moments here. After taking the sightseeing tunnel back, Wang Jun and Li Mengshan decided to go shopping on Nanjing Road. Nanjing Road Pedestrian Street is not what it used to be and has changed.
Very big.
The sun has just emerged from the gaps between the buildings in Pudong. Behind us, the Bund tourist embankment is quiet and tidy. Cleaners, water trucks, and salvage boats are working hard, and many tourists are welcome on both sides of the Pujiang River.
The two walked west from Nanjing Road on the Bund and entered the pedestrian street. Wang Kai Photography, Taikang Food, Yanyun Tower, Hong Changxing, No. 1 Food Store, No. 1 Medical Store, Maochang Optical Company, Shibaiyi Store and other famous stores are still there.
exist.
There are many street scenes, leisure facilities, green squares, People's Park, and the 24-story International Hotel still standing on Nanjing West Road.
The HSBC Bank Building and the Customs House are in Greek classical style. The clock tower is made in the style of the clock of the British Parliament Building. It is the largest bell in Asia. The Sino-Russian Bank and the Bank of China Building. The underground vault of the building was the most advanced insurance facility at that time.
Library. The British Consulate, in the colonial verandah style, is now the Shanghai Municipal Government Administration Bureau.
The two visited the Old Town God's Temple and Yuyuan Garden one after another. There were crowds of people everywhere, including adults, children, men, women, locals, outsiders, Chinese, foreigners, tourists, and vendors. They were looking for a place to rest and catch their breath.
The place is extremely difficult. People say that when you go to Nanjing Road in Shanghai, you only look at the head count, and Wang Jun feels it is true at all.
Tired from walking, Wang Jun and Li Mengshan decided to find a place to eat and rest. They stopped in front of a small snack department and saw that there was an empty seat in the hall. Wang Jun quickly asked Li Mengshan to sit over and occupy the seat.
Son, he himself began to look at the snack list.
Wang Jun ordered a portion of fried tofu and vermicelli soup, two pot stickers, two small bowls of Sanxian Xiaohuan, a tray of Nanxiang steamed buns, two crab roe soup buns, and two pan-fried buns. "Brother Wang, what do you want?
Do you want everything in the shop? You can’t eat it!”
"These things look like a lot, but actually there isn't much. This is an appetizer. I'll order a few more dishes later and let's drink some!"
"Brother, I never drink. You can drink a beer by yourself!"
"It's boring for me to drink too much by myself, one bottle for each person!"
Chapter completed!
