It is a must see place if you want to take a great look of many things in Shanghai. It has some observation levels, at 263 m you have a glass floor , really amazing to watch the city at your feet.

Dave Mc

The tickets are kind of expensive , but for ¥368 you get a lot. buffet Meal in the rotating restaurant , observatory , outdoor glass floor and the history museum .

Caroline Deng

This is a great place to get an awesome view of the Shanghai skyline. Go on their glass floors for an amazing view of Century Ave.

Dave Mc

SECRET: If you buy the ticket that includes the buffet at the revolving restaurant , you get to take the VIP elevator and skip the 1.5 hour line ! ????

Andrew BC 翁 ÔNG

Awesome views of Shanghai. Fee is not cheap if you take full tour of the tower but worth it

Lester Amara

Get atop of the world’s 3rd tallest TV and radio tower for a jaw dropping view of the city . Avoid weekends as it can get extremely crowded . Try walking on the glass deck for some adrenaline rush!

Dave Mc

Really much better than you’d think and a lot bigger inside than it appears.

First time i visited in 2006 price entry 100rmb/pax,located nearest Huangpu river for view ,this is a symbol of Shanghai,many photos take this tower from Puxi to Pudong,worthy to visit

Daniel da Rocha

Might not be the tallest climb but it is definitely the most fun. Get the cheaper ticket (B ticket - 160RMB), and enjoy the "Transparent Observatory " at the top with its amazing glass floor !

One of the touristic (and not only) spot to see the amazing city of Shanghai. Take a full tour of the Tower.

Dave Mc

Awesome glass elevator , but it only goes about a third of the way up, then you need to switch to another elevator .

Dave Mc

This place has airport-style security with x-ray and body scans at two places, so expect delays you need to go through twice, and don’t even think of bringing a cigarette lighter!

Lorne Brandt

Be prepared for lines . The entrance for the Upper Level (¥220) is about 45 min. & is only the beginning. Line to the next elevator , then more, then to get the heck down and out. Enjoy the view .

The exhibition on the 0 meter level is definitely one of my favorite places in Shanghai. Lujiazui area is also worth going.

Jernej

Buy the full ticket it's worth it but avoid weekends and national holidays it can get really crowded . Don't miss the outdoors floor on the lowest ball. Good for pictures, no glass.

Franco Marinari Acciani

Buy the tickets before entering the gate on gate 1 or 2. Elder people than 70 have discount but tickets can be purchased only at ticket office at Gate 1.

Nick K

View is amazing! Underground museum very good as well ! Don't suggest restaurant there - cool rotating system, but overpriced a lot.

A long queue forms under the tower everyday, but the waiting pays off. The view will leave you breathless and glass floors will turn your legs into a jelly . A must-see for all Shanghai visitors.

Navarro Parker

Lost my wallet near the ticket stand. And the next day I returned and someone had turned in!! Staff was very concerned and helpful (With the help of Google Translate). I'm incredibly grateful.

Paul 'DaddyBird' Castle

The Shanghai Municipal History Museum in the basement of the tower is my favorite in Shanghai.

Sergio Martinez-Montequin

Is not worth going all the way to the sky capsule. Just get the 120rmb ticket and enjoy the view from 285m and the glass floor

Norman

THE landmark of Shanghai, very unique design, which stands out from the skyline. I love its retro sci-fi vibe :) ????????

Nico Pitney

Skip the top floor, hit the observation deck and roller coaster , and municipal museum in basement . Avoid weekends etc, gets nuts .

MK Chan

Must visiting place when u come to Shanghai. It is extremely crowded on weekend.

Martin Lewison

Museum of Urban History is quite interesting, although I'd have liked more actual artifacts . Try to avoid groups of wilding Chinese schoolchildren, who will not hesitate to shove you aside.

Dave Mc

Very inefficient system with multiple queues. Even when there’s not much of a crowd, having to queue over and over again creates its own crowd.

Sonnypong

One of the 'must to do' in Shanghai. Visit the 3 Pearls during lunch time to avoid the big crowds

Mohammad Azad

if u are in shanghai u have to try glass floor & resturant of pearl tower

Jens S

Something to consider for maybe your 10th or 11th visit to Shanghai, possibly you live here. Or maybe just stay away. Views are good but you have to fight hordes of people and a poor layout.

Farokh

More beautiful than Tower itself is the inside, try glass floor ! It's awesome!

Mert Ymz

Şangay demek bura demektir. If you say I am in shanghai, you must see pearl tower. Cam bölmeye kesinlikle uğrayın

Joyce Lee

2.5 hour wait after ticket purchase around 6 pm. Come early to avoid long waits . 160 rmb for tower and 299 for tower and boat ride .

Magaly

Amazing! A must if you are in Shanghai!!

Diego Flores

The greatest attraction in Shanghai, very good view when lights are on. Great tourist view !

Lawyer Ink

The best view is on the second level) the third "space" level can be omitted)

Andrew Oktorizal

Take a picture on observation deck while stepping to the glass floor

Christopher Michael

Alright, the view is astonishing! However, the pushy rude people, insanely long lines , & the unsupervised brats ruin the whole experience. Prices are insane but worth it at least once if in Shanghai.

Mohammad الفيلكاوي

Check the forecast whether there are fog or no before try the on top experience

marcus H

Looks funky from afar. Take a closer look and you can see it is coming of age and the concrete looks dodgy.

Ferry WF

A must visit while in Shanghai, and walk on glass hundreds of meter of street

Rudy McDaniel

Nice shops for souvenirs at the top of the tower. Glass observation deck is not to be missed.

Ko, Ja?

Stunning views and nice atmosphere in the evening

Epicurean ????dventures

Had high expectation. Ended up disappointed. Views weren't great bcos of bad interior lighting creating reflections. Glasses had lots of scratches. Perhaps wouldn't hv prob during day time. Pricey ????

Jeremy Shih

Shanghai Museum of Urban History on the lobby floor is strongly recommended for everyone who was born or lives or interested in Shanghai.

Zoey Zhou

Probably the most popular sightseeing place in Shanghai.

Emily Lowe

Observation deck at the World Financial Center is a much more organized , enjoyable experience and view is better. Do not go here unless you love long waits , pushy tourists and confined spaces.

Kristian

Get tickets for lunch or dinner . Great food, and you get to skip the long lines .

Ladybug ????????????????

Fantastic! And do not forget to go to the restaurant

Gary 朱

Standing on air distracted me from the panoramic scenary which the height provided

Luis Jse Lopz Lora

Great view , both to the city down your steps and to the horizon
