Amanyangyun

Among centuries-old camphor trees and meticulously restored heritage buildings on the outskirts of Shanghai, Amanyangyun represents one of the most remarkable preservation projects in modern hospitality. Created from ancient Ming- and Qing-dynasty residences carefully relocated from rural Jiangxi Province, the resort offers a rare dialogue between history, culture, and contemporary life. Expansive gardens, tranquil courtyards, and elegant architecture create an atmosphere of profound calm, providing a striking contrast to the energy of nearby Shanghai while preserving a meaningful connection to China’s architectural and cultural heritage.

Suites, villas, and historic courtyard homes combine refined contemporary design with traditional craftsmanship, offering generous living spaces immersed in nature and history. Experiences centre around cultural discovery, from calligraphy, tea ceremonies, and traditional crafts to exploration of Shanghai’s dynamic urban landscape. Wellness is an integral part of the journey, supported by one of Aman’s most extensive spa and wellness facilities, while dining celebrates both regional Chinese cuisine and international influences through thoughtfully curated culinary experiences.

At the heart of Amanyangyun lies a commitment to preservation, education, and cultural continuity. Through the safeguarding of historic architecture, conservation of thousands of ancient trees, and programmes that celebrate traditional Chinese arts and craftsmanship, the resort reflects a deep respect for the past while creating meaningful connections between heritage, community, and contemporary hospitality.
