Pudong

Pudong

Pudong (Chinese: 浦东, pinyin: pǔdōng) is an area of Shanghai, China located along the east side of the Huangpu River.

Originally a little-developed agricultural area linked only by ferries, Pudong has rapidly grown since the 1990s and emerged as China's financial and commercial hub. It is home to many of Shanghai's best-known buildings such as the Oriental Pearl Tower, the Jin Mao Tower and the Shanghai World Financial Center.
