How did engineers manage to build an entire luxury hotel inside a giant abandoned quarry? 😱
Hidden in the mountains of Shanghai, China, stands one of the most unusual engineering projects in the world: the InterContinental Shanghai Wonderland, also known as the Shanghai Wonderland Hotel.
The incredible part?
The hotel wasn’t simply built on the ground.
Much of the structure was built deep inside a massive former quarry, turning an enormous excavation left behind by mining into a spectacular vertical hotel.
In this video, you’ll discover how engineers and architects transformed a seemingly impossible construction site into one of the most unique hotels on Earth.

🇨🇳 The incredible engineering behind Shanghai Wonderland
Instead of filling in the massive excavation or abandoning the site, engineers turned the quarry itself into part of the architecture.
The result is an extraordinary vertical hotel surrounded by towering rock walls, with rooms, restaurants, entertainment spaces and other facilities built at different levels deep inside the former quarry.
It is a fascinating combination of civil engineering, architecture, construction, structural design, mining and innovative reuse of a damaged landscape.
If you love engineering, architecture, construction, megaprojects, incredible buildings, luxury hotels, infrastructure and engineering projects that seem impossible, this video is for you.

yes
You are the only one talking about such bullshits… I would believe it if you go there n stay n experience n upload a video. We are living in AI generation n you can't fool us with your stupid videos😡
Amazing!
Visiting not, but on the other hand, make mine.
Beautiful….Nice….😅❤

Yes love to visit it. I have never heard of this hotel in Shanghai.
Garbage channel. Always pushing failed projects as if they were completed using Ai video.
COOL
I wonder how the plumbing is done
Not that I am negative about this incredible/remarkable work done, truly, they have done something great and fantastic but scary though as one said, Mother nature. Men could do impossible structures whatever you may call it with their intelligent minds and human ingenuity but there is someone greater, The Creator or Mother Nature itself, who may not agree at all, yes, temporary, a challenge for those with money, but it will not hold forever. My apology but we have seen so much already happening around the world, it is messy, dangerous and life threatening. Thank you for this mind-blowing achievement.
The first thing that should come to proves that 1 country is all about war while Eroupean countries and China advance there countries financial strategies to make things better while we The U S poison it's own people population control especially the blacks
Ai
This is a wonderful structure I would like to see this fantastic building
❤❤❤🎉❤❤❤🎉❤❤❤❤LOVED IT SHALL VISIT MANY TIMES❤❤❤🎉❤❤❤❤🎉❤❤❤❤
chinese people doesn't care about mother nature they tend to strengthen businesses
My my… Isn't AI wonderful?!
I would really love to visit this great hotel, it would be so much to take in on just "one breath"❤🎉❤
Just fantastic 😊
I hate AI
All ai BS 😢😢😢
If this was built in China, why are all of the AI workers Europeans?
The Chinese are technically extraordinary. I think being an American we have to face the fact we've been complacent and left behind as a society.
Well done and congratulations ❤❤❤❤❤❤❤❤
I would love to visit and stay at Intercontinental Shanghai.
Will make it happen 🙏 🙌 ✨️ 👌 ❤
If it was built by the Chinese I wonder how long it'll take to fail
China is great in building construction, machineries but USA is much great they can built a WAR they can invade countries, they can stole president and they can sacrifice killed their people like soldiers
Would love to visit someday
Impressive for sure.
The day that mountain decides to shift a little
Majestic marvel edifices that only the Chinese can build!!!!😮😮😮😊😊😊😊
Why if they have so many wonders and Woderfull Country, they steal coming to USA????
This is NOT a cheap place to stay. The cheapest room is circa USD $400 a night. All high end stuff. If you got the money, yeah, why not?!?
Long live the Chinese people
Absolutely incredible…
❤️if there's a will, there's a way.🎉
This is exactly the kind of situation the AI Act was designed to address, because here, an AI-generated video is being used to deceive the viewer. In reality, the quarry is only half as deep and the hotel is only half as tall.
You could live in this kind of utopia too if you lived in a communist country. WTF and why? Do you think any of its citizens get to stay in this place? I don't think so. They steal their people's money and build these wonderland for the ultra rich. This is what the communist Democrats want for this country. You can't afford anything while they build these super structures and playgrounds for the ultra wealthy.
Yahushua the messiah son of Yahweh the universe creator and earth rightful ruler is the only hope of salvation
I love China's ability in engineering but I respect mother nature
Amazing structure. How I love to visit that astonishing Wonderland.
I wonder no public world news about that. Is it a dream or bullshit again?
Hatsoff
