West Bund
徐汇滨江·西岸
A riverside cultural belt built on old docks and factories, home to the Long Museum, the West Bund Museum and Runway Park.
Xuhui Riverside (West Bund) stretches along the west bank of the Huangpu River between Longhua and Xupu Bridge. This former industrial area once included Longhua Airport, Beipiao Wharf and Nanpu Station. It has been transformed into a public riverside space. Along the waterfront are the Long Museum (West Bund branch), the West Bund Museum, the former site of the Yu Deyao Museum, the Oil Tank Art Center, Runway Park, a skate park and waterside walkways. The riverfront is free to enter. Museums charge admission and are often closed on Mondays. Take Metro Line 11 to Yunjin Road Station or Longyao Road Station.
