Shanghai Bund's 'Old Money Style' Roadmap: Waldorf Astoria - Timeless Luxury

Among the architectural gems of the Shanghai Bund, the Waldorf Astoria Hotel holds a special place in my heart. 🏨

Once the glorious 'Shanghai Club' building, it later became Asia's first Waldorf Astoria, and it carries nostalgic memories of the 'East Wind Restaurant.'

The brick exterior bears the marks of time, the gold-toned decor of the lobby, and the expansive ballroom—all exude the serene luxury of 'old money style,' making you forget the hustle and bustle of the Bund.

From the windows, you can enjoy breathtaking views of the Huangpu River, while indoors, you can feel the weight of history. I was completely captivated by this atmosphere where Shanghai's past and present intertwine. 💫
