Jin Mao Tower

金茂大厦

One of the three landmark towers of Lujiazui, with an 88th-floor observatory overlooking the Bund and an outdoor high-altitude walkway.

Jin Mao Tower stands about 420 meters tall and was completed in 1999. Its stepped form draws on the design of Chinese pagodas, and it was the first of Lujiazui's three landmark towers to be completed. The 88th-floor observatory sits at about 340 meters and offers views of the Bund's historic buildings, the bend of the Huangpu River and the Oriental Pearl Tower. Looking down, you can see the circular atrium of the Grand Hyatt Shanghai. The Walk in the Clouds outdoor high-altitude walkway is a separately ticketed activity that requires safety gear. Observatory admission starts at about RMB 120, and it is open roughly 08:30–21:30. Take Metro Line 2 to Lujiazui Station, about a 10-minute walk.
