The infinity pool at Kimpton Shanghai Bund Hotel is insanely amazing

🌆 A private frame of the Magic City's skyline My heart stopped the moment I rushed up to the 29th-floor pool—60 meters of transparent edge riding right on the waist of the Huangpu River! The cranes on the Xuhui Riverside look like Lego toys across the river, while the neon lights of Qiantan Taikoo Li flow like a river beneath my feet. The water temperature is a constant 28°C, and during a dusk soak, the evening breeze sweeps over my neck, the mix of hot and cold tingling all the way to my scalp. 📸 The ultimate influencer photo moment 6:00 PM at sunset is the wildest! The pool’s reflection swallows the Lujiazui “bottle opener trio,” raising a glass of champagne for photos, half submerged in water and half suspended in air. This nine-grid Instagram shot instantly beats the crowded Bund check-in spots. But the truth is: you can only capture the ethereal mirror surface before 7 AM when it’s empty; after 9 AM, it turns into a family splash park 💦 🤯 The absurd side of luxury - 20-minute queue for the Dyson hairdryer in the changing room (ladies blow-drying hair like performing a ritual) - The complimentary “Kimpton special” surprisingly tastes like yellow wine Gin Tonic (a soul-stirring East-meets-West fusion) - Midnight hunger attack: the in-room minibar only has $98 purple sweet potato chips (ouch, wallet pain) > Holding onto the glass wall at the pool’s edge, watching the traffic flow like pulsating veins beneath my feet, I suddenly realized: this pool’s edge isn’t a boundary, it’s a floating throne with the entire Magic City beneath my feet!
