About this experience
Brave the dizzying heights of the Shanghai Tower for an unbeatable 360-degree view of Shanghai, where you’ll get to admire the city’s skyline and the neighboring Huangpu river. Standing at 632 meters tall, Shanghai Tower is the tallest skyscraper in China and the second highest in the entire world, making it the perfect place in the city to observe the picturesque sunset and the vibrant city life. Despite the height, going up and down the tower is no problem, as you’ll be taking elevators that reach maximum speeds of 65 kilometers per hour! You’ll also discover why the tower was built in a twisting design through multimedia interaction in the exhibition hall, where you can learn about the tower’s design and architecture. Don’t forget to stop by the tower’s post office, the highest in the world, where sending a postcard becomes a totally different experience!
