Shanghai - Pearl Tower

The "Pearl of the Orient" TV tower and the surrounding skyscrapers in the Lujiazui financial district as seen from the Garden Bridge (外白渡桥).

 

As this was taken just past 10 PM most lights on the Pudong side are already switched off, this makes the Pearl Tower stand out even more.

 

The white "column" on the right behind the bridge truss is the "Shanghai Monument to the People's Heroes" (上海市人民英雄纪念塔) usually shortly called "Heroes Memorial". A concrete structure of three columns in the stylized form of three rifles leaned against each other. Here this monument is seen from below.
