锦筵 JIN YAN, inside J Hotel, Shanghai Tower

The 5-star luxury J Hotel Shanghai, located in Shanghai, and on its 103rd floor,

you'll find this upscale Cantonese restaurant.

The dragon and red backdrop at the entrance are truly striking!

It's been continuously popping up on the Instagram feeds of international influencers lately,

making it Shanghai's newest hotspot.

And it's not just the entrance decor that's impressive; in fact,

reviews consistently praise the food's taste.

Located on the 103rd floor of the 5-star J Hotel Shanghai in Lujiazui,

this upscale Cantonese restaurant soars approximately 480m above ground.

Inside this Shanghai restaurant,

there's a crystal ‘祥龙戏珠

(Xiáng Lóng Xì Zhū, 'Auspicious Dragon Playing with a Pearl')’

installation artwork.

Even the floors and interiors feature traditional Chinese motifs like dragons and clouds,

meticulously decorated to exude luxury and Chinese flair from top to bottom.

It's a Chinese fine dining restaurant where you can enjoy exquisite Cantonese cuisine.

In a Shanghai skyscraper + incredibly grand and luxurious Chinese aesthetics + a stunning dragon sculpture + located within a 5-star hotel

+ If you're visiting Shanghai and want to experience a truly luxurious meal,

I highly recommend making a reservation and checking it out.

If you leave a comment, I'll share the reservation link

And at the same J Hotel Shanghai,

the Heavenly Jin (天之錦) on the 120th floor is a Western restaurant.

Here, within the same hotel building,

besides the JIN YAN Chinese restaurant,

there's also a Western restaurant where you can enjoy the skyline views

in a truly breathtaking way.

Below are photos of

the Japanese restaurant inside J Hotel Shanghai.

In fact, when traveling to Shanghai,

beyond these restaurants,

the hotel itself is a fantastic place to enjoy

the spectacular high-rise views of Shanghai.

With typically spacious and airy room sizes, unique to China,

and high ceilings, it gives an even grander and more expansive feel.

What's more, hotel costs here are generally more affordable compared to Korea,

and the hotel service is incredibly, incredibly friendly.

Located in Shanghai's Pudong New Area,

it's also conveniently close to everything, making it easy to get around during your Shanghai trip.

It's just 100m from Shanghai Tower and right next to the Oriental Pearl TV Tower.

From its high floors, you can enjoy panoramic views of Shanghai's cityscape and nightscape.

If you were to pick one of the best hotels in Shanghai, this would undoubtedly be among them.

However... rather than high-rise view hotels,

I personally prefer hotels unique to a country or region, or those where I can have a spacious private villa, so
