About this experience
Jin Mao Tower reimagines the ancient Buddhist Pagoda in steel and glass —beneath its 88th-floor vault, 28 gilded corridors spiral into a 152-meter "Abyss of Time," bathed in neon light like molten gold (extra fee). Race 340 meters skyward in just 45 seconds to tread the transparent Cloud Walkway, hovering above the Huangpu River’s cargo ballet and neon-spangled skyscraper forests (extra fee). Eight cosmic pillars hide Bagua-inspired feng shui wisdom, while the world’s highest hotel pool mirrors the Bund’s century-old glow (hotel guest access). When its crystalline crown ignites the night, this 420.5-meter totem sings a duet of tradition and tomorrow.
