Shenzhen Bay's scenic ceiling

Babes, this time I checked in at the Shangri-La in Nanshan, Shenzhen, and it totally amazed me! Who would have thought a hotel could satisfy both vacation and photo needs at the same time? The environment is absolutely stunning, and even the stairs can create blockbuster shots—photo lovers will be over the moon✨

🏨 Photo hotspot: design aesthetics hit the mark
The overall style is a mix of Southeast Asian and Lingnan, with white walls and green plants creating a simple yet high-end look. The lighting at the spiral staircase is perfect! I recommend wearing a solid color long dress, which pairs perfectly with the geometric lines in the background. The floor-to-ceiling windows in the top-floor lobby face Shenzhen Bay, and from 4 to 6 pm when the light is soft, backlit silhouettes make for instant great shots!

📍 Prime location: lazy person’s blessing
• 3-minute walk from Bayxia Station on Metro Line 2; Shenzhen Bay Park and Window of the World are both a 10-minute drive
• Right next to Ruiyin Mall, super convenient for buying milk tea and snacks
• Recommend a night stroll at Shenzhen Bay Park, just a 15-minute walk from the hotel; watching the light show at night is super romantic

🛋️ Room with top-tier amenities
• Dyson hairdryer + L’Occitane toiletries are basic, but there’s also a wireless charger and smart toilet!
• Family rooms come with kids’ toiletry kits and plush toys, perfect for families with children
• High-floor bay view rooms overlook Window of the World, and the tower lights at night are breathtaking

📸 Hidden photo spots checklist
1. Lobby spiral staircase: shoot upwards to capture the dome crystal chandelier
2. 41st-floor executive lounge: at sunset, the whole Shenzhen Bay turns into an orange sea
3. Pool changing room: unexpected! Pure white arch design looks like an art gallery
4. Elevator lobby: mirrored ceiling + green plant wall, perfect for mirror selfies that make your legs look long

🍽️ Foodie guide
• Must-try breakfast: freshly cooked kway teow and shrimp dumplings, plus 8 kinds of fresh juices
• Lobby bar afternoon tea includes Hainan coconut, and the dessert stand is super photogenic
• The crispy chicken at the Chinese restaurant is praised by locals for authenticity; remember to book a window seat in advance

💡 Practical tips
• Recommend choosing the Deluxe Club room type, which includes afternoon tea and sunset cocktails
• Weekends are busy; for stair photos, go before 9 am
• For taxis, set the destination as "Shenwan Huiyun Center Phase 5" for direct drop-off at the hotel

If you want a staycation and great photos in Shenzhen, this place is definitely the one! From details to views, it exudes luxury, and my friends keep asking for the address on social media~ Summer rates even have early bird discounts now, hurry up!
