See World Financial Center Shanghai in Best Shanghai Tours

There is a mall at ground level with fine China tours restaurants, and you'll find bars and restaurants in the Hyatt Regency between floors 79 to 93. There are three observation decks on floors 94, 97, and 100. The 100th floor has a viewing gallery that is 55 meters long. It is the second highest observation deck in China. It is higher than the viewing platforms on the Canadian TV Tower (447 meters) and the Dubai Tower (440 meter).

Riding the elevators might be a small thrill. They move people from the first floor to 95th floor in a minute with a speed of 10 meters per second. The night lights and dusk sunset scenes are amazing, but in rainy and foggy Yangtze River cruises weather you can see little. There may be an hour wait for the 100th floor observation deck, but you can see the view from the windows of the 91st floor for free in a relaxed fashion from the 100 Century Avenue Restaurant and Bar. Drinks are comparatively inexpensive (about 8 USD).

The 101-floor tower of the Shanghai World Financial Center, SWFC , symbol of commerce and culture and of the Chinese city’s emergence as a world capital, is today the world’s tallest Shanghai travel guide building (492 metres, 1614 feet) and holds the record for the highest occupied floor (474 metres, 1555 feet). Its observation deck is the highest one ever built. In its structure there are 10,000 tonnes of the special Histar? steel grade supplied by ArcelorMittal.

Standing in Shanghai’s Pudong district, a special enclave designated in the early 1990’s as the city’s business centre, the SWFC mixed-use building is truly a vertical city containing, looking at the building from top to bottom: a foyer with shopping malls and restaurants, offices and conference facilities, and the world’s highest hotel (the Park Hyatt Shanghai, Shanghai tour package between the 79th and 93rd floors).
