No longer as it wasTicketed
The 'bottle opener' of 2008. Its famous three-level observatory on floors 94, 97 and 100 — the 100th-floor glass corridor at 474 m — is no longer a public observation deck: the owner's website lists floors 94-100 only as 'Sky Arena', an event venue for launches, galas and exhibitions, and the owner's website has no ticketing or visitor section. It gave up its 4A tourist-attraction rating in 2024 citing a 'functional adjustment'.

Beat the crowds
No everyday deck to queue for: the floors open to the public only during ticketed exhibitions, so do not count on it as a stand-in when Shanghai Tower's line is long.
