Oriental Peral TV Tower
Located within the Pudong Park in Lujiazui, in the Pudong New Area. The Oriental Pearl TV Tower is 468 meters high, and it is as much a symbol in Shanghai as it is a spectacular structure.
The base of the tower consists of a lobby, a shopping mall and science "fantasy city". The second level basement is occupied by various public and physical plant facilities. The five spheres are designed as a "space hotel" and arranged like a cluster of beads. The observation deck is on the first upper level, at a height of 250-295 meters and a diameter of 45 meters. This observation floor and entertainment area is reserved for special parties and distinguished guests. The antenna extends yet another 118 meters above the building. It transmits TV programs from nine different channels and radio programs from ten FM stations.
At the ground floor, the Pearl Tower boasts a magnificent lobby, a sleek elevator zone and an extensive shopping mall. The lower sphere, at 50 meters in diameter, is a self-contained amusement park, with attractions and rides such as a trip through the universe, a tour through space, a time tunnel, and an observation corridor.
The Oriental Pearl Tower has already become one of the symbolic buildings in Shanghai, which satisfies every need of visitors and patrons, including tourism, dining, shopping, entertainment, boarding and Audio & Video Broadcasting. It is also honored as one of the ten best views in Shanghai.
