Accommodation

Large high-rise apartments dominate, housing foreigners and locals. Some offer newish accommodation with modern kitchens and clubhouses, while others were built too quickly for quality. Rents are cheaper than in adjacent central Jing’an, ranging from ¥4,000 to ¥12,000 for a two-bedroom place. Only a few high-end serviced apartments are in this area, including the Regalia Serviced Residences on Lane 1161, Shanxi Bei Lu, with rents from ¥20,000. A precious few converted warehouses host dramatic but expensive studios overlooking the water. Densely populated local areas surround Everbright City on the north side
