Pudong

Eastern Asia

Pudong is a district of Shanghai, located east of the Huangpu River, which flows through central Shanghai. The name Pudong originally applied to the Huangpu's east bank, directly across from the west bank, or Puxi, the historic city center. It now refers to the broader Pudong New Area, a state-level new area that extends all the way to the East China Sea.
