Шанхайская башня \ Shanghai Tower
dedmaxopka — 12.02.2014===
Hello all from the world's biggest city – Shanghai. For about a month Raskalov Vitaliy and I are in China. I already have quite a bit stories to tell about where we have been and what we have seen, but you will read about it in my next post.
I dreamed to visit Shanghai for a while. One of the main sights for us was Shanghai tower, a huge skyscraper in the city center, which currently is under construction. The height of it will be 632 meters. When the construction will be completed, the tower will become the highest building in China and world’s second high building after Burj Khalifa (if not to mention TV tower in Tokyo, which is only 2 meters higher).
Ten days ago, during the celebration of Chinese New Year, the entire country was resting – all the people had vacations, so as the builders. Everybody was squibbing in their neighborhoods and enjoying the holidays. For us, it was perfect time to climb the tower and a crane jib above it (the highest point is about 650 meters). To see how it was, watch the video:
В здании 120 этажей, подъём занял около двух часов. Когда мы взобрались на верхние этажи, стало видно, что город утопает в низкой облачности. Мы были над облаками в прямом смысле этого слова.
The building has 120 floors. It took us two hours to climb there. When we got on top floor, we saw how the city is floating in low cloud cover. And we were there, above the clouds.

2. Поначалу это радовало, так как снимки получались очень красивыми.
At first we really enjoyed it – pictures came up really beautiful.
3. Но к утру облачность не прошла. С одной стороны вид красивый, как из иллюминатора самолёта, с другой стороны, не видно города совсем и не чувствуется высоты. Мы решили ждать до победного, пока не разойдутся облака.
But in the morning clouds were still there. From one side, the view was amazing, like from the airplane window, but from the other side, we couldn’t see the city and there was no sense of height at all. So we decided to wait until the clouds will be gone.
4. Вид на стройку. Справа из облаков торчат высоченные небоскрёбы Цзинь Мао (421м) и Шанхайский всемирный финансовый центр (492м).
Construction view. On the right hand side you can see two really high skyscrapers (Jin Mao – 421 meters, and Shanghai World Financial Center – 492 meters), sticking out from the clouds.

6. Только к 3-м часам облачность стала рассеиваться. Мы сразу стали подниматься наверх.
Clouds disappeared only by 3PM and we immediately headed to the top.

9. На самом верху. На удивление ветра не было совсем и температура воздуха была около 20 градусов тепла, это не типично для Шанхая зимой.
On the very top. Surprisingly, it wasn’t windy and the temperature was about 20 C, which is not typical for winter in Shanghai.

14. На спуске облачность снова стала обволакивать город.
While we were getting down, clouds were covering the city again.
15. Когда мы спустились вниз, уже стемнело и мы без труда ушли домой. Суммарно мы провели в здании 18 часов.
When we got down, it was already dark again and we had no problems getting out. In general, we spent there 18 hours.
На этом всё. В скором времени ждите много фотографий из Китая.
That’s all. Soon you will see a lot of pictures from China.
