Shanghai
A 647m voyage with entertainment from budget effects, garish lighting and dreadful props, the Bund Sightseeing Tunnel links Pudong with the Bund and guarantees to get you to either side in an altered state. Stepping from the trains at the terminus, visitors are visibly nonplussed, their disbelief surpassed only by those with return tickets.
For those not wanting to endure such kitsch, take the public ferry which costs a fraction of the price and you can enjoy the views.
