THE BUND SIGHTSEEING TUNNEL

After taking photos at the Bund, we headed down to an underground tunnel called the "Bund Sightseeing Tunnel", connecting between the Bund and Pudong. It has a total length of 646.7 meter and is China's first cross-river artificial sightseeing tunnel.


Our guide gave each one of us a one-way ticket trip; we entered into a cute silver cable car on rail that looks like a transparent glass capsule.



Modern technologies are applied in the decoration of the interior walls of the tunnel; we saw various pictures about history, culture, natural scenery with digital audio and background music, waving puppets and colorful laser lights.


The Bund Sightseeing Tunnel maybe a little touristy, but it's a fun place to experience and a must-see for visitors.

As soon as we arrived at the Pudong area, we walked and we passed through a hallway filled with small shops selling various Chinese art handcrafted fans, carved pictures, grass art, autograph design and trinkets etc.



There's also another ticket counter for the Bund Sightseeing Tunnel ...


Aside from that, they also posted and sell tickets for the "China Sex Culture and Sex Health Exhibition" (20 Yuan per person). In case, you're wondering what it is all about? Well, this is an ancient China Sex Culture Museum, where a collection of sex-themed antiques exhibited. You can also buy a ticket for the "Exhibition of the Rare Aquatic Animals (30 Yuan). But sorry to say, we bypassed these two shows.
