There are many ports in Shanghai, such as Shanghai International Cruise Terminal, Shanghai Wusongkou Cruise Ship Terminal, Shanghai Waigaoqiao Port Cruise Terminal and so on. The following is detailed introduction to the main passenger ports in Shanghai.
Located in an ideal position opposite the Lujiazui financial centre and close to the Bund, Shanghai Port International Cruise Terminal is in the shape of a water drop. Three mid-sized cruise ships are able to berth at the same time and the annual capacity of the terminal is one million passengers. The terminal helps fulfill Shanghai's dream to become one of the premier cruise ports in Asia. Shanghai also has a backup facility for larger cruise vessels at the Waigaoqiao terminal, about 30km from downtown Shanghai. So ships larger than 87,000 tons will dock at the terminal in Waigaoqiao Port instead of Shanghai Port International Cruise Terminal. Actually, Waigaoqiao Port can handle four cruise ships at one time. The construction of Wusong Cruise Ship Terminal cost USD1.17 billion. Its advantages in depth and width allow it to accommodate three or four 60,000-ton, 300-meter cruise liners at the same time. Every year, Shanghai Port welcomes thousands of cruise tourists to enter or leave China from Shanghai Port terminal. Our Shanghai Port Tours will help all cruise passengers have a enjoyable time in Shanghai.
