The night skyline across the 黄浦江Huangpu Jiang (Huangpu River). Nearest to the left is the very distinctive 东方明珠广播电视塔Dongfan Mingzhu Guangbo Di (Eastern Pearl Broadcasting Tower). It shapes like a 3-D molecular structure. Most western travel books just call it "Oriental Pearl Tower". To the right and not far from it is also the 金茂大厦Jinmao Building. There is no question that the aesthetic of this structure borrows much from pagodas.
