InterContinental Shanghai Wonderland

[3] The hotel, which started operations on 20 November 2018, is managed by InterContinental and was built on the site of an abandoned quarry and, notably, features some rooms underwater.

The architects' vision is one of sequential hanging gardens that will produce the effect of a green hill extending down the face of the quarry.

Both the quarry's rock face and the wings of the blocks of guest rooms are projected to surround an atrium within the hotel.

The project would include facilities for extreme sports, a visitor centre and a five-star hotel with some underwater rooms.

[4] There are two underwater floors, the lower one of which will feature MEP installation and the upper one with guest rooms and a restaurant facing an aquarium with a depth of five metres.
