There's only one place to truly appreciate the sweeping views of the Bund, Pudong's neon-lit, futuristic skyline, and the traditional Chinese architecture of Yu Yuan gardens, and that's from the large outdoor terrace at the CHAR bar on the 30th floor. Combined with the indoor lounge area, with a resident DJ on weekend nights, plenty of artworks by local artists and bartenders who know how to mix up a smart martini or a mean pitcher of Pimms, the bar is destined to become the summer's hottest destination for those in the know in Shanghai.
