Shanghai 2023 Night Walk, The Most Famous Night View City in China | Taikoo Li Qiantan, Yu Garden

It's been a long time since I took a night view video of Shanghai.
This video was shot in March 2023, when the weather was still cold. There were not many crowds at that time, and I had a very pleasant shooting night in Shanghai.
Shanghai, an international city, is located in the east of China.
With its world-famous landmarks such as Jin Mao Building, the Oriental Pearl TV Tower and Lujiazui financial centre, Shanghai has become most travellers' tourist destination.
If you enjoy shopping, you can go to Nanjing Road and Huaihai Road. They are called "Shopping Paradise " in Shanghai. You won't feel bored if you walk on these two roads and many goods and beautiful scenery will attract your eyes.
If you enjoy eating delicious food, I will take you to Yu Garden and a lot of local snacks will wait for you there.
-------------------⭐⭐
Taikoo Li Qiantan, The Amazing Mega-mall
-------------------⭐⭐
Taikoo Li Qiantan, the first “Taikoo Li” project in Shanghai, is tailor-made for the Qiantan International Business District and follows the successful landmarks of Taikoo Li Sanlitun in Beijing and Sino-Ocean Taikoo Li Chengdu.
Spanning a total floor area of approximately 120,000 square meters, Taikoo Li Qiantan maintains the essence of the “Taikoo Li” brand, renowned for its open-plan and lane-driven architectural design. The project features the “Double-open park concept”, a wide expanse of open green space and lanes across the ground level and rooftop, connected by an 80-metre-long Scenic Bridge overlooking the Huangpu River.
Taikoo Li Qiantan’s wellness-themed shopping concept is showcased with the south and north zones, also known as the “Stone Zone” and the “Wood Zone”, which feature a naturalistic design concept inspired by stone and wood across the façade and which are connected via an 8,000 square meters central park. The two zones offer a diverse mix of luxury and contemporary fashion labels, lifestyle brands and F&B concepts, with all of these elements coming together to create a unique ‘Wellness’ experience for visitors.
Taikoo Li Qiantan features a host of international luxury brands, including Audemars Piguet, Balenciaga, Bulgari, Cartier, Dior, Fendi, Giorgio Armani, Gucci, Hermès, Loewe, Louis Vuitton, Moncler, Prada, Saint Laurent, Tiffany & Co., and Zegna.
Alongside some 50 brands that are debuting their first stores in Pudong, over 20 tenant partners are showcasing unique “Garden-concepts” to echo the Wellness theme of Taikoo Li Qiantan: a temporary store by Louis Vuitton with a new design concept inspired by Louis Vuitton’s Monogram 4 petal flower pattern; the first Oasi Zegna Garden in the Chinese Mainland; Boucheron Jardin d’Hiver - a first in Shanghai presented by Boucheron; Starbucks’ Greener Store Lab, a global first; and AVENUE & SON’s first store in the Chinese Mainland with a skatepark.
With Lujiazui Group taking the lead in its development, Qiantan is fast emerging as an international Central Activity Zone (CAZ). Located at the heart of Shanghai along the Huangpu River, the district spans 2.83 square kilometer.
The Bund is the most popular but often the most expensive area to go clubbing. What makes it so pricey is that most clubs have an amazing view of Pudong and the Huangpu River. One of the most exclusive bars in Shanghai is Bar Rouge, a lounge with a French-Shanghai atmosphere. Another famous bar with a view is Mint, famous for its shark tank at the entrance.
Every type of night out is on offer in Shanghai. From low-key lounge bars to neon-lit roller discos.
-------------------⭐⭐
What is Shanghai’s nightlife scene like?
-------------------⭐⭐
As China’s second-most populous city with over 26 million citizens, it’s safe to say Shanghai caters to a varied crowd. With a huge number of migrants, businesspeople and travellers flocking to the city, life here is best lived in the fast lane. This is telling of its nightlife scene, with many new bars replacing old haunts or rebranding as an even bigger, even better experience. So, whether you want a gritty, underground affair or a high-end, opulent rendezvous, there are more than enough options to find something that ticks the bill.

About one and half years ago I watched your video of Shanghai and it inspired me to move back to China from the States. Now I work in Taikoo Li, the place you showed in this video I get to see it and experience it every day. It feels amazing, thank you!

[@WalkEast]

Wow, this was really unexpected! I love this Taikoo Li mall so much, and I also ate some Guizhou cuisine in it last time. So glad to know that you're working here, dear friend! Hope you have a great working experience in Taikoo Li and have a great time in Shanghai!

[@MrGoodbyedavid]

@@WalkEast I literally just had a Guizhou cuisine for lunch today at 晶耀前滩, small world man. Next time you visit, we could hang around together. 🤝

Lots of people in States wanna to go back to China but not everyone has the privilege😂

[@isaywhatiwant798]

Serious inquiry my friend. I live in Colorado currently but would love to visit/live in China but I don't speak the language. How would I go about getting over there? I hear it's very complicated as an American.

[@jng4880]

@@isaywhatiwant798 There are lots of western foreigners in China especially in big cities like Shanghai, Beijing, Shenzhen…. You can apply for a tourist visa and use your translation app to get around in China. In big cities you will find people who know decent English especially younger ones.

I’m visiting China in September and these videos are truly inspiring. What China has achieved in 40yrs is truly amazing. Wonderful to see!

[@WalkEast]

Welcome to China!

[@mathewvanostin7118]

I remember back in the 1990s 2000s china was a classic typical third world country. With old building, old infrastructure, old technology. If something was modern it was cheap quality Now since 2016, china looks like a mix of prime japan & prime usa on steroids lol. It looks very mega developed nation in advance for its time

[@jameswalker6864]

In the 1990s and the 2000s it wasn't a third world country in the big cities, don't exsggerate. Shanghai and Beijing already had bigger buildings than most cities in the Western world by the 1990s. At most, it may had looked like a quite advanced second world country, never a third world country in the 1990s and 2000s. Come on, even pretty small countries with quite modest buildings and structures such as Portugal are part of the first world. Ain't no way Lisboa or Porto looked more impressive than Beijing and Shanghai in the 1990s and 2000s.

[@mabel8179]

It really is amazing. China has made the biggest progress over the shortest space in time in all history.

[@mathewvanostin7118]

@@jameswalker6864 lol my friend china 1990s 2000s it was poverty. All chineese tried to immigrate to europe north america australia japan. Some went as far as hiding in boat shipping container to immigrate illegaly It was third world country. And when there was modern things it was cheap quality. This is why the old quote that dont make sense today of "if its made in china it will stop working proprely in some days or weeks" comes from Even when you look at old jet li or chineese movies from the 1990s 2000s china is portrayed as poor country cause it was the reality of the time

Merci pour la visite nocturne de Shanghai !🙂 D'après un article dans Wikipédia, Shanghai est remarquable par sa taille démesurée. Elle est la ville la plus peuplée de Chine avec 27 796 000 d'habitants, en 2021, sur l'étendue de la municipalité, ou municipalité au rang de province. Elle est également l'une des plus grandes mégapoles du monde. Certains géographes estiment même qu'il s'agit de la ville la plus peuplée du monde avec environ 80 millions d'habitants si, au lieu de tenir compte des limites administratives, est prise en compte l’agglomération humaine. La municipalité de Shanghai exerce sa juridiction sur dix-sept subdivisions de districts. Sa superficie est de 6340 km2 et sa densité est de 4 384 hab./km2. La population de l'agglomération est de 70 547 437 hab. (2017). Il y aurait actuellement 5 000 tours et 120 tours en plus par an. Il y a 20 000 chantiers permanents dans l'ensemble de la ville.
