Around The World In 72 Days - Shanghai Skyline

On the same day we went to Yu Gardens, we also headed to the downtown area of Shanghai specifically to photograph the cityscape/skyline during the later afternoon light.

It's an impressive skyline!

I wonder how many sky scrapers have been added in the last 10 years, or if things are slowing down?

the exact opposite! According to chat gtp

Between 2014 and 2024, Shanghai saw significant skyscraper development. In the last decade before 2024, starting from 2014, there were around 60 skyscrapers constructed. Comparatively, in the preceding decade (2004-2014), there were roughly 30 skyscrapers built. These figures showcase the rapid urbanization and vertical expansion of Shanghai's skyline over the years.

And Alexis, as I noted in my earlier post, more and more blocks of older housing are being bought up for further development.
