Today we are back with another contribution from the popular series "BBC ship in front of a familiar landscape or skyline"... Last weekend, our BBC GENOA left Shanghai after loading operations. Our photographer let his drone fly to capture the vessel when it passed by the Oriental Pearl Tower, the famous landmark in Pudong, Shanghai. The tower is 468m high and was opened to the public on 1 January 1995. It has three observation platforms at the heights of 90m, 263m and 342m respectively and is being visited by about three million tourists every year. #bbcchartering #bbcgenoa #lakermax #breakbulk #projectcargo #heavylift #maritime #shipping #multipurpose
