Wave-Like Roof of the Passenger Terminal
It was my last day in Shanghai and yet I still have something I haven’t done. I needed hang around the Bund area until nightfall to get some shots if I can. There was still some time before dark so I was just walking about waiting for that. The Gucheng Park conveniently leads back to the Bund promenade area, so I was pleasantly surprised since I needed to go there in the first place. I guess following buildings really does work. Fortunately, Shanghai has a lot of tall buildings so it was easy to get my bearings.
Huangpu River Cruise Passenger Terminal
The Huangpu River Cruise Passenger Terminal was where I decided to wait. I don’t really know the official name for this place but it is a place where tourists get on the tourist boat to admire the nightscape of Shanghai. It was a bit early for that though it was still plenty bright outside. I don’t know how good the photos will be from the boat I can’t imagine taking nightshots on an unsteady boat. Anyway, the passenger terminal is a pleasant place to wait since it has a modern design, it doesn’t however really protect passengers from the elements except probably for rain. The temperature was dropping fast and there was nowhere to hide.
