Need an escape from the city? Sure, you could check out Moganshan. Yeah, yeah, I've been there, done that—but if you haven't been in a few years... prepare to beshook. The main town square has been totally transformed—lined with cafés, designy boutiques, and the kind of trendy shops you'd expect on Huaihai Lu or around Columbia Circle. Almost unrecognizable... in the best way. Peace, greenery, fresh air... plus all the city comforts still at your fingertips.

Bringing your dog? La Petronilla is the move. Run by the Senso Italian Restaurant crew, it's super dog-friendly, with an outdoor sauna, pool, good food, and English-speaking service. Oh, and we've got some sweet staycation deals there too.
