Shanghai nightly stroll

Certainly an alternative program to my usual night walks at home in Bäd Mergentheim - Shanghai by night.
And certainly one of the most famous nightly pamoramas worldwide.

Oriental Pearl tower (468m), Shanghai World Financial Center (492m) & Jin-Mao Tower (420,5m)
Three of the tallest buildings in the world in immidiate vicinity to each other at Pudong, Shanghai's district east of Huangpu River.

Really amazing to stand between all these skyscrapers - and have a look at them, they really scrape the sky - or at least the clouds...

Did you know Shanghai has more than 600 skyscapers???

Not the worst place to take your dinner in Shanghai... ;-)

Geneva by night

14 days ago we were in search of a notion of spring...
...and we found it at Lake Geneva.

But not only the daylight conditions were great, also the night scenes at Geneva were worth taking some photos. Especially the lakeside scenery with its many-coloured lights reflecting on the water surface was really beautiful.

The famous "jet d'eau" (water jet), the large fountain and landmark of Geneva.
500 litres (132 gallons) of water per second are jetted to an altitude of 140 metres (459 feet) by two 500 kW pumps. The water leaves the nozzle at a speed of 200 km/h (124 mph). When it is in operation, at any given moment there are approx. more than 7000 litres (1849 gallons) of water in the air.

Bruges by night

Oder - für alle Freunde der deutschen Sprache -
