Peppa went to People’s Square.  When she was there she visited a magnificent building. This building is so important! It is the Shanghai Municipal People’s Government. She saw five-star bright red flag, fluttering in the wind, in front of the beautiful building.

Peppa’s family entered the Oriental Pearl TV Tower. It is the most famous building in all of Shanghai. She had a view of the whole of Shanghai at 263 meters above the city. She took a lot of pictures and climbed the 259-meter-high tower with glass transparent spheres. Peppa, excited and nervous, grabbed her mother’s hand and walked at a fearful pace.
