Miss World travels sky-high in Shanghai!

The contestants pose for pictures before ascending the famous tower

Today the excitement levels were elevated to new heights as the contestants visited the famous Shanghai Oriental Pearl TV Tower.
The tallest building in Asia is renowned for its unusual appearance (it represents pearls and rubies falling down a strand towards the ground and houses a ‘science fiction city’ in its base) and for its viewing platform in the uppermost globe which affords spectacular views over the city.

Inflatable models of the tower were handed out to some of the contestants

After posing for photos at the base of the building the contestants ascended to the dizzy heights of the tower. Undeterred by the glass floor that circled the building they were in their element – taking photos, pointing out the striking buildings and parks and posing for pictures.

The contestants showed no fear of heights and posed happily on the glass viewing platform

When the time came to go, it was a reluctant crowd who descended in the lifts. Another wonderful trip where the contestants were, quite literally, on top of the world.
