Amanyangyun

Located an hour from central Shanghai in China, Amanyangyun is a peaceful sanctuary surrounded by a sacred forest of 1,000-year-old trees. Originally located 700 kilometers away in Fuzhou, the forest and heritage Ming and Qing villas were rescued from demolition and relocated to form this stylish Aman resort.

There are 24 Ming courtyard suites and 13 antique villas. The spacious, light-filled rooms fuse Aman minimalism with earthy neutral tones, natural materials, and spacious en suites. The antique villas surround ancient stone courtyards and have access to the private pool.

Lazhu restaurant puts a creative spin on Cantonese and Shanghainese cuisine, while Arva offers an Italian menu and Nama serves Japanese meals. There’s also a cigar lounge, and bar serving afternoon tea and cocktails.

Nanshufang is a cultural center dedicated to Chinese arts and crafts such as calligraphy, brush painting, and tea, and incense ceremonies. Amanyangyun also boasts a wellness center with indoor and outdoor pools and a spa.
