在被誉为「东方曼哈顿」的陆家嘴金融城，尽管近年来每年平均有近60万平方米商务办公楼宇宣告竣工，但这种建设进度仍远跟不上新增企业的需求。上海14日召开陆家嘴金融城十大重点工程推进会，宣告将在5年内新建350万平方米的商办楼宇，并表示要加速推进其中的十大重点项目，总投资约520亿元人民币。

备受海内外瞩目的陆家嘴金融城扩容战略不断提速，「十二五」期间计划投资数百亿元人民币建设商办楼宇，规模相当于再造一个「小陆家嘴」。浦东新区14日举行「陆家嘴金融城十大重点工程建设推进会」，介绍「扩城」规划。为加快各类功能性机构集聚，5年内陆家嘴计划再建设商务办公楼宇45幢，地上建筑面积合计达350万平方米。

Lying on the east bank of Huangpu River and facing the Bund, Lujiazui Finance and Trade Zone occupies 28 square kilometers (10.8 square miles) and is studded with around 100 high-rise buildings. Many are landmark buildings of Shanghai, making the area a great place to experience the modern flavor of this metropolis.

Often called the 'Wall Street of China', Lujiazui is the largest financial zone in mainland China, with more than 400 banks and financial institutions from both home and abroad, including HSBC, Citibank, and Standard Chartered Bank. In addition, it is home to the headquarters of over 70 international giants and about 5,000 companies engaged in trade, investment, and intermediary services. The sum of transactions in the Shanghai stock market ranks it the 2nd in the world only behind the New York Stock Exchange.

Since the reform and opening-up policy carried out in 1978, Shanghai has enjoyed a great economic boom, and Lujiazui is gradually becoming more widely known. However, few know the origin of the name (Lu Jia Zui in Chinese), which literally means Lu family dwelling on a mouth-shaped alluvial beach. In fact, the name is associated with Lu Shen, a noted scholar of Imperial Academy in the Ming Dynasty (1368 - 1644). After Lu retired, he lived on this land until his death. Today, you can still find Lu Shen's calligraphy in Shanghai Museum. His former residence and family cemetery are located in this area.

In Lujiazui, the charm of the city as an international metropolis is unfolded to the largest degree. One can admire the modern skyscrapers along Binjiang Avenue as well as various buildings of different architectural styles across the Huangpu River. The four tallest landmarks of the city - the Oriental Pearl Tower, Jin Mao Tower, Shanghai World Financial Center, and Shanghai Tower are constructed next to each other. When night comes, all the buildings are decorated with shining colorful lights, presenting a gorgeous scene before your eyes. The Bund, facing this financial zone across the river, is the most wonderful place to enjoy the night view.
