✨ Mandarin Oriental Wangfujing, Beijing – A Sanctuary in the Heart of the City

Stopped by Mandarin Oriental Wangfujing while in Beijing, and wow—it did not disappoint. I didn’t stay at the hotel (though now I kind of wish I had), but I did spend a late afternoon at MO Bar, and it was hands down one of the best spots I’ve found in the city for drinks with a view. The bar itself is sleek and quiet, with that classic Mandarin Oriental elegance—nothing flashy, just refined, calm, and cool. I grabbed a seat by the terrace and had a cocktail while watching the sun set behind the Forbidden City. Yes, that view. It’s unreal in person. The cocktails were crafted perfectly—balanced, not overly sweet, and beautifully presented. Prices were what you’d expect for a luxury hotel, but honestly? Totally worth it for the ambiance and that golden-hour glow over Beijing. If you’re looking for a classy spot to unwind, impress a date, or just treat yourself with a view, I highly recommend swinging by MO Bar—even just for one drink. One of those places that makes you pause and soak it all in.#nightout #localguides #nightout
