The
Orient Pearl TV Tower is 468 meters high, the tallest in Asia and third
tallest in the world. It faces the Bund across the Huangpu River. When
viewed from the Bund, the tower and the Nanpu and Yangpu bridges create
a vivid imagery known as "two dragons playing with a pearl."
The sphere at the top has a diameter of 45 meters and is 263 meters
above ground. The observation deck in the sphere offers a sweeping view
of the city. The revolving restaurant is set at 267 meters above Pudong
New Area. The dance ball, piano bar and 20 karaoke rooms, at 271 meters,
are also opened to the public. The penthouse, which sits at 350 meters,
has an observation deck, meeting room, and coffee shop. The tower integrates
broadcasting technologies with sightseeing, catering, shopping, amusement,
and accommodations. It has become the symbol of the city and a major
tourist attraction in Shanghai.
