Zhuang Jian, chairman of Jinshan Urban Investment Group, said leveraging the insights of tourism market and rich international hospitality management expertise, the Canopy by Hilton Shanghai Binfenli will mix the cross-cultural elements into designing and development.

The resort will elevate the immersive experience by combining resort, business streets and hotels to build a new landmark in the Yangtze River Delta.

The Jinshan District, where the hotel is located, is the southwest gateway of Shanghai, with rich traditional folk culture and ancient town charm. Using modern deconstruction and restructuring techniques, local elements such as red bricks, water networks, granaries, are reinterpreted through modern design and environmentally friendly materials, leading guests to deeply experience the culture and style of Jinshan district in Shanghai.
