How exotic can a place be again ? Shimao Wonderland Intercontinental

.'
A perfect dream will be to find my self lost in shimao wonderland and just wonder away , please dont wake me. splendor at its peak
Adventure will meet luxury at the Shimao Wonderland Intercontinental, a five-star hotel currently being built into the side of an abandoned quarry Songjiang District of Shanghai.
The hotel, designed by the British firm Atkins, is set to have 19 stories and 380 rooms. Its facade will line one portion of a 100-meter-deep cave-like quarry at the
base of the Tianmenshan Mountain.
The quarry that will soon house the Shimao is partly flooded, meaning the lowest levels are set to be submerged under water, a rising trend in futuristic hotel design. The two underwater levels will feature an aquarium, an underwater restaurant and guest rooms.
Adrenaline junkies will be in close proximity to activities such as rock climbing, bungee jumping and watersports, while those looking for a more relaxing retreat can admire eco-friendly roof gardens, a swimming pool, a sports center and unparalleled scenery -- including a waterfall.
According to the Daily Mail, the hotel is set to open in 2015, with rooms starting around $300 a night.
