Description: |
|
As the largest river in Shanghai, Huangpu River is one of the
earliest purpose-excavated and dredged rivers. It is 114
kilometers long, starting from Dingshan Lake in Qingpu County to
Yangtze River at Wusongkou. It is an average of 400 meters wide
and 9 meters deep, and is regarded as Shanghai’s "mother river"
since Shanghai gets most of its drinking water from it. The
river winds through the entire city, dividing Shanghai into two
regions: Pudong on the east bank and Puxi on the west.
Shanghai’s famous Bund can be found on the west side of the
river. A cruise is
perhaps the best way to fully view and appreciate Huangpu River.
Cruises are a daily event on the river, including shorter
cruises which cover the main waterfront area between the Yangpu
Bridge and Nanpu Bridges, as well as and full river cruises
which meander eastward along the golden waterway to Wusongkou.
Along the river you can enjoy not only the Bund and other
classic buildings in different architectural styles in Puxi, but
also the skyscrapers in Pudong. Views along the river are a joy
to behold at any time of the day or night. |
