China: A view of the Bund across the Huangpu River in Shanghai, 1929

The Bund (Chinese: Wàitān) is an area of Huangpu District in central Shanghai. The area centres on a section of Zhongshan Road (East-1 Zhongshan Road) within the former Shanghai International Settlement, which runs along the western bank of the Huangpu River, facing Pudong, in the eastern part of Huangpu District.

The Bund usually refers to the buildings and wharves on this section of the road, as well as some adjacent areas.
