Global Harbor

Global Harbor, Shanghai

This is the Global Harbor mall in the Putuo district of Shanghai just after it first opened. It is the largest mall in Shanghai, covering 480,000 square meters, and It is part of a growing trend of opulent, luxury malls that are appearing all around China. It is full of western stores like Ralph Lauren, Calvin Klein, Starbucks, H&A, and Gucci. Apparently, it was designed to look like a ship, but except for the paintings of such I didn't get that impression.
