Shanghai Pujiang (Huangpu Jiang) River Cruise and Tour
Huangpu River (Huang Pu Jiang in Chinese), a symbol of Shanghai, originates in Dianshan Lake and empties into the Yangtze River at Wusongkou (mouth of
Wusong River). It is 114 kilometers (71miles) long and 400 meters (0.25
miles) wide. Huangpu River is ice-free year round. The river divides
Shanghai into east and west. It is a silent eyewitness to Shanghai's
history and its development.

Scenery along the Huangpu River:
A spectacular sight is that the two suspension bridges, Nanpu Bridge and
Yangpu Bridge, appear to arch over the Oriental Pearl TV Tower,
resembling 'Two dragons playing with a ball'.
The west bank (Puxi) of the Huangpu River is the cultural, residential
and entertainment center of Shanghai. The Bund, Monument to the People's
Heroes, Waibaidu Bridge and the oldest park in Shanghai - Huangpu Park,
are located on the west bank. In addition, many historical buildings
left over from Shanghai's colonial days have been preserved. The east
bank of the river (Pudong) is the newer district of Shanghai and its
financial and commercial hub. Steel and glass structures are abundant
here. The Oriental Pearl TV Tower, Jin Mao Tower, skyscraper hotels,
offices and malls of the Lujiazui Financial Zone are located on this
side of the river.
Ships from all over the world dot the river. The busy wharfs and the
'three-layer waters' (or three-color waters) at Wusongkou are also
within sight. The 'three-layer waters' is formed by the convergence of
Huangpu River (gray white), Yangtze River (yellow) and the East Sea
(green) during high tide.
When the sun sets, Huangpu River (Huang Pu Jiang) is veiled in the glittery neon lights
on its banks. Cruising on Huangpu River in the evening, visitors can
experience its silence and beauty under the moonlight.
