People and buildings in the Lujiazui business district of Pudong, in Shanghai, China.

---

Pudong is the modern hub of Shanghai's booming business district, and since the early 1990s has been transformed from marshy farmland into a mass of glittering tower blocks, filled with the hustle and bustle of busy commuters, as in this image. The main centre of Pudong is the area called Lujiazui, which is where this outdoor escalator is located.
