Bank of Taiwan Building, Financial heritage building on the Bund, Shanghai, China.

The Bank of Taiwan Building rises 18 floors at number 23 on the Bund, displaying a combination of Western and Eastern architectural elements.

The structure, completed in 1937, replaced the former German Club which was confiscated during World War I due to enemy asset declarations.

The building incorporates traditional Chinese architectural elements throughout its 50,000 square meters of floor space among European-style structures.

The edifice currently operates as a branch of the Bank of China and remains accessible to visitors interested in the Bund's architecture.

The initial design called for 34 floors but was reduced to 18 due to height restrictions imposed by Victor Sassoon.
