Week 21 - Jinmao Tower, Lujiazui

The Jinmao Tower is a landmark building on the Pudong skyline, and is home to the Grand Hyatt Hotel and a number of commercial offices.  It was built in the 1990s and was the tallest building in Shanghai for an impressive 9 years.

On the 88th floor is a cocktail lounge called Cloud 9. We have been meaning to go there for approximately 3 years, ok 2 and a half years, as we weren't going to go there when I was pregnant when we arrived!

Last Saturday, we finally arranged to meet a friend there for a drink, with plans for dinner out afterwards. Unfortunately, there was no view on this night as we actually were in the clouds in Cloud 9.

When we came out afterwards the wind was whipping and the rain was light, but the building looked spectacular disappearing into the clouds!
