The Oriental Pearl Tower is an iconic TV and radio tower situated in the Pudong district of Shanghai, China. Completed in 1995, it stands at an impressive height of 468 meters, making it one of the tallest structures in China. The tower features a unique architectural design with two large spheres and several smaller ones, resembling pearls glittering on the Lujiazui skyline along the Huangpu River. It includes observation decks, a revolving restaurant, exhibition facilities, and a shopping mall. The highest observation deck offers breathtaking panoramic views of Shanghai, particularly stunning at night when the city is lit up. It also has a glass-bottomed walkway for those brave enough at 259 meters above ground. The Oriental Pearl Tower is not only a tourist attraction but also an emblem of China's rapid economic growth and technological advancement. Its distinct silhouette has become a symbol of modern Shanghai and its integration of culture, commerce, and tourism.
