Amanyangyun, Shanghai - Aman's fourth resort in China | Aman

Amanyangyun, Shanghai (https://www.aman.com/amanyangyun) is Aman’s fourth resort in China. This luxury destination is set just outside downtown Shanghai in an ancient camphor forest.

Amanyangyun 养云安缦. Meaning ‘nourishing cloud’, yangyun is a reference to expanding the ‘cloud’ of the mind with knowledge – a philosophy borne by the story of the ancient trees and dwellings at Amanyangyun's heart.

This introspective retreat belies a remarkable tale of a forest transported, and a history preserved. Saved from demolition, these Ming- and Qing-dynasty dwellings have been reassembled, brick by ancient brick, to create peaceful, refined spaces. Light-filled with forest views, interiors are finished in wood, stone and bamboo. Amanyangyun's camphor forest – parts of which date back a millennium – has a remarkable history.

Rescued, then relocated 700km from Jiangxi to Shanghai, thousands of sacred trees, famed for their calming scent, now flourish in their new home. Set amid trees and lakes, Amanyangyun is a seminal Shanghai destination – ideal for city escapes, wellness retreats or Aman Journeys exploring the best of China.

Peaceful and serene, it lies close to Shanghai culture, shopping and sights. Calling on Chinese tradition, the expansive Aman Spa is devoted to holistic health, fitness and wellbeing. From formal to cafe-style and alfresco, each of the six dining venues at Amanyangyun plays to its unique setting and ambience.
