City Castle Jing'an Shanghai

Topping the list of Shanghai's best compounds is City Castle. Located in the central district of Jing'an and designed by a team of Taiwanese developers, City Castle was created with a Western-aesthetic in mind. A small collection of gorgeous white villas sit near the entrance, but the apartment buildings that make up the bulk of the compound are equally luxurious and well-maintained.

Lush greenery, small ponds, and well-manicured bushes saturate every inch of outdoor space. City Castle's greenery rate is, in fact, over 40%, giving residents the sense that it's a natural oasis in the heart of a cosmopolitan city. The five -star club house is beautiful and well-run, with an indoor pool, gym, meeting areas billiards room, yoga room, an indoor kids' play area, and more. The staff is professional, polite, and always willing to go that extra step.
