A place worth knowing

Jin Mao Tower combines the stepped silhouette of a pagoda with the structure of a modern skyscraper. Its observation deck on the 88th floor offers a high viewpoint over Lujiazui and the Huangpu River.

Choose it when architecture is part of the attraction as well as the view. Leave time to look at the building from the streets below, then compare that perspective with the surrounding towers from above.
