To unify the market image of its hotels, and distinguish the different hotels star grading, Jin Jiang Hotels consigned one of Asia�s leading professional brand agencies to develop the new identity over the past 12 months. The key element of the new logo is the double �J� mark which represents the first two letters of Jin Jiang and the roof line of a Chinese Imperial Palace. 

The key element of the Mark is the double 'J' which represent the first letters of Jin Jiang and the Roof of a Chinese Imperial Palace.

The Mark, the English letters 'JJ', relate to 'Jin Jiang' � a famous Chinese brand. It is also a part of our efforts to raise awareness of the Jin Jiang Hotels among overseas guests and is a statement of our ambition towards internationalization. It embodies our vision to serve the world.

The right hand, bottom corner of the Mark is the integrated graphic representation of the Roof of the Chinese Imperial Palace and 'J', offering rich symbolisms.
