About The Entry

TASTE OF CHINA WEI – An Immersive Restaurant

Crafted with devotion by Trip.com Group, this high-end cultural-dining sanctuary invites guests from around the globe to savor China’s culi-nary heritage. Set within the historic heart of Shanghai—the Bund’s century-old “Old Municipal Building”—the restaurant curates the finest dishes from seven distinct Chinese regions, weaving them to-gether with immersive projections and narrative performances to create an epic, time-spanning Eastern feast. Here, every bite is a dialogue with history; every course, a journey through millennia of Chinese civilization.

Bamboo Slips & Canyons: A Dialogue Across Time

When the ancient grain of bamboo slips meets the rugged texture of canyon walls, solid rock becomes a canvas for nature’s script, and weathered slats transform into ribbons of light threading the fis-sures. Guided by the ethos of “deconstruction and reconstruction,” the design orchestrates the rhythmic alignment of bamboo slips to evoke towering cliffs, allowing guests to feel the twin sensations of “opening a scroll” and “unraveling a mystery” with every step.

The Immersive Space: Making Civilization Tangible, Sensible, Conver-sant, and Savorable

Rooted in the principle of “deconstructing traditional symbols to re-construct contemporary experience,” the space dissolves the bounda-ries between culture and environment. Spectators become participants; digital artistry draws them into living tableaux. Engaging all five senses, the experience fosters a profound resonance with China’s mil-lennia-old civilization—rendering history not only visible, but pal-pable, audible, and utterly unforgettable.
