In September, it is good to take a cruise to explore the buildings along the Huangpu River, especially at night.

At night, the old buildings at the Bund and modern buildings at the east bank of the river in the colorful lights present their beauty to the fullest.
The Bund is home to one of the Old Shanghai landmarks – Garden Bridge of Shanghai, an all-steel structure and Shanghai Fairmont Peach Hotel and other old historical and cultural European buildings for more than 100 years.
