Lujiazui, the financial center in Shanghai, forms a perfect backdrop to the Bund area.
Shanghai saw its first-quarter GDP, or gross domestic product, gain 3 percent to 1.05 trillion yuan, according to official sources.
The city's key indicators improved, market vitality continuously enhanced, prices and employment remained stable and market expectation and confidence is increasing, an unidentified official from the Shanghai Municipal Statistics Bureau was quoted as saying by Jiefang Daily on Saturday.

In the first quarter, the city's industrial added value of designated size enterprises — those with annual revenue of 20 million yuan or above — edged down 0.4 percent year-on-year, narrowing the index for 2022 by 0.2 percentage points. Total industrial output of strategic emerging industries came to 399.23 billion yuan in the January to March period, accounting for 43.5 percent of the city's total gross industrial output value for designated enterprises.
