Bund Tourist Tunnel
Bund Tourist Tunnel Review
For a look at Shanghai kitsch at its worst, you can take a trip across—actually, under—the Huangpu in plastic, capsular cars. The accompanying light show is part Disney, part psychedelia, complete with flashing strobes, blowing tinsel, and swirling hallucinogenic images projected on the concrete walls. The five-minute ride will make your head spin; you'll wonder if the Chinese central government isn't giving Shanghai just a little too much money.

Fans of the 1960s sci-fi Tv show Time Tunnel might think they had stumbled onto the set of that program as they are propelled under the Huangpu River. Cool and tacky at the same time!
