In Chinese, we usually call it Waitan. It is about 1500 meters long from north to south, running from Waibaidu Bridge to the Yan’an Road. There are 26 buildings stand together in a line, showing us a very fabulous city skyline. They were built mainly in the 1920s and the 1930s. These buildings are in many different kind of styles, ancient and modern, Chinese and foreign. No wonder the Bund is known as a “Gallery of World Architecture”.
