One of the world's great food cities — right outside the door.

Shanghai is one of the great food cities of the world, and the area around the hospital reflects it. The streets nearby include snack-food lanes and restaurants spanning many cuisines, so familiar options are never far — which matters more than it sounds when you're traveling during treatment.

The city itself

And when you look up — Shanghai.

The hospital sits in the middle of it. The Bund, Yu Garden and the old shopping streets are a short walk or a few minutes by taxi — there when you want them, easy to leave when you don't.
