Shanghai Exhibition Centre

THIS SOVIET designed structure, with its star-topped spire, occupies a huge area opposite the Shanghai Centre on Nanjing Xi Lu. It was originally known as the Hall of Sino-Soviet Friendship and was built with Soviet help in the late 1950s to commemorate the 10th anniversary of the Chinese communist victory in 1949. At night, the spire is often lit up with garish pink and lime green lights. There's an excellent Cantonese restaurant on the fifth floor of the central structure, and there are other restaurants and two bowling alleys located in other parts of the complex.
