Bocom Financial Towers

The Bocom Financial Towers are twin skyscrapers located in the Pudong district of Shanghai. They serve as the headquarters for the Bank of Communications. Travelers visit this site to view the architecture and observe the surrounding city skyline from a height of 230 meters.

Getting There

The towers are located in the Lujiazui financial hub. From the city center, the most common method of transport is the Shanghai Metro. Depending on your starting point, the journey typically takes 20 to 40 minutes. Once you exit the station, the towers are accessible via the pedestrian walkways of the district.

Time Allocation

Allow approximately 1 to 2 hours for a visit. This provides enough time to view the exterior architecture and spend time at the observation points.

When to Visit

Visiting during the late afternoon or early evening allows you to see the city in both daylight and with the skyline illuminated. The area is a major business and tourist hub, so it gets crowded during weekdays during lunch hours and on weekends.
