Hotel Shuttle
These generally run from the five-star hotels across the river. They're a good free way to cross provided you look like you belong at the hotel. Being a foreigner is sufficient.

Commuter Boat
These run up and down the river continuously, stopping at each pier for a very brief while (ten seconds or less) to exchange passengers. There are also express versions. Cost varies.

Building
This is one of many buildings going up during a building boom in the early to mid 1990s. In 1997 the boom turned to bust and the buildings just sit. This partially-completed building has sat empty for over ten years.
