Privy 5 Overview
If your idea of fun doesn't include getting stuck watching movies or in a museum, then Lupu Bridge is right up your alley. Boasting some of the best views of Shanghai, Lupu Bridge is the world's longest arched bridge and is worth checking out as one of Shanghai's premier architectural elements. Plus, just traversing this behemoth is an adventure in itself and provides the perfect vantage point to take in an uninterrupted bird's eye view of the entire site of the 2010 World Expo. For only RMB 80 (about $14 US) you can get a short tour that includes a number of facts about the bridge and provides an opportunity to get away from the chaos of the Expo but also to ask anything question you might have of Shanghai at this happening time. If that's not enough, take the 367 steps up to the viewing platform at the arch of the bridge where you'll catch one of the most spectacular views of Shanghai.
