Shanghai ~ The Bund






The bund. It's a DAMM famous and popular place, for both the locals and tourists.

We were there at about 3pm..and there were thousands of people there. All taking photo and enjoying the beautiful view from the Bund.

The Bund is basically like our Marina Bay, just much longer, and much much much much more beautiful then what we have. From the bund, you get to see the TV tower and many commercial buildings that make the whole coast so amazing...it's really beautiful.

The night scene was equally amazing. But unfortunately, I did not bring my tripod along, and the weather is going to about 4 degrees at night, thus, my hand is shaking and numb. Totally not able to produce a decent night shoot photo. No chance for a long exposure at all. Still managed to pull off a couple of shots...

Right next to the bund is the ever famous "Peace Hotel". Beautiful building. More so than Raffles Hotel and Fullerton Hotel combined.

Something weird happened at the bund...someone was selling "Smelly Tofu" in the middle of the bund..the wind carries the smell as far as it can and "killed" alot of people.. I mean.."Smelly Tofu??? In Shanghai???" hmmm....

I simply love the Bund. Amazing.
