JINMAO TOWER
Exit the aquarium and head southwest on Yin Cheng Road, then southwards down Century
Avenue. A sky walkway allows you to avoid the wide streets as you travel between Pudong's
tower blocks - it also affords great photo ops. Head past Super Brand Mall (Zhen Da
Guangchang) at 168 Lujiazui Road, filled with a lively mix of mid-range bars, restaurants,
shops and cinemas. Beyond the glittering IFC mall with its upscale brand names and excel-
lent basement supermarket, enter the Jinmao Tower 3 [map] (Jin Mao Dasha; 88 Century
Avenue; daily 8.30am-9.30pm; charge), designed by architect Adrian Smith, who wanted to
evoke a pagoda with influences of Art Deco. The Grand Hyatt Shanghai's 56th-floor atrium
affords a breathtaking view of the building's core, rising in a concentric spiral to the 88th floor.
