Find an ancient town to spend two days of leisure. It takes less than an hour to drive west from Chengdu and a suitable distance for a short distance. Anren Ancient Town is a special existence. When many ancient towns have been completely surrounded by businesses entering from the outside, Anren is still maintaining it in its own way.
Anren is old, but it has new, unique, comfortable vitality and a distinctive temperament.
"Benevolent people are benevolent, and knowledgeable people benefit benevolence." An Ren's name is very wonderful. As soon as you step in, the unique tranquility and simplicity in the air of Anren instantly dispels people's physical and mental fatigue. You can live in a hotel transformed from a former residence and pray for a good dream.
Anren Mansion Hotel Group is currently the only high-end boutique hotel in the ancient town. It is located at the corner of Republic Style Street and has an excellent location. It was transformed from a century-old mansion to form a hotel community with "Jinyuan","Jinshe" and "Jintang" as the core of the mansion. At the same time, it also supports leisure spaces such as specialty restaurants, Moon Mu Bar, Star Gallery, and Qingfeng Tea Garden.
Jinshe is located on the old street of Anren Ancient Town. It focuses on art collection and the style of the Republic of China. It uses contemporary fashion and simple design techniques to blend the low-key and luxurious decoration style with the architectural characteristics of the Republic of China in western Sichuan. The main entrance of Jinshe is also the main entrance of Anren Mansion Hotel Group.
There are two old yellow jue trees on both sides of the main entrance. After a century of wind and rain, they are still full of vitality. On both sides of the tree are open-air leisure areas. Under the lush branches and leaves of two old yellow jue trees, you hold an umbrella and face the old street of the ancient town. You can watch pedestrians stroll by, then make a pot of tea and chat with friends and family. Very comfortable.
Entering the first gate is like entering a quiet place from the hustle and bustle of the city. On both sides are the rap figurines of Shushan Kiln, with exaggerated expressions on their faces. As soon as you enter the hotel, you feel a sense of humor and humor! The screen in the middle is the hotel's masterpiece-Sichuan embroidery, one of the four famous embroideries in China."Anrenqing" is a rare double-sided Sichuan embroidery treasure with the theme of architectural communities. It is based on the 1945 "Aerial View of Anren" The painting has been recreated to express the cultural customs of Anren Ancient Town during the Republic of China.
Through the door on the right is the check-in lobby. Looking around the lobby, the front desk only occupies a corner on the right. It is more like a housekeeper in a big house, low-key and simple. The hotel's displays have unique local characteristics. Every article and every detail reveal its lavish generosity and master-level aesthetic appeal. It is simply an art treasure house in the country of Sichuan.
Hanging on the wall on the left side is one of the precious collections that the hotel has an exclusive collection certificate. The "male kuo" in the Sichuan opera costumes is the general uniform of generals-brocade armor and rong clothes, which are divided into upper and lower clothes.
This man's shoe is 4.6 feet long and the sleeves are 2.7 feet long. It takes 28 embroiderers to embroider purely by hand for 90 days. It is accompanied by 5 garment workers. It consists of 31 embroidered pieces. It is the heaviest hand-embroidered garment, almost full of embroidery. The meaning is also the beauty of "complete victory"!
Walking through the lobby, as the automatic door slowly opens, you enter a quiet new space-the hotel atrium lounge area.
The atrium is named the Star Corridor, meaning "a place where you can visualize the stars." What makes it outstanding is that the 200㎡ space is covered by the canopy, and the entire canopy can automatically open and close according to needs or weather conditions, realizing free conversion of indoor and outdoor scenes. The landscape trees planted in the atrium have the artistic conception of "there is wood inside the door for leisure", which is calm and comfortable.
Looking around, you will find a series of bowls from Master Li Qing of Shushan Kiln on display. The Shushan Road Ceramic Cover Bowl Tea Series has strong cultural connotations. It is the tea set that best displays Sichuan tea culture, integrating Sichuan people's joy of drinking tea and the unique charm of Taoist culture.
On both sides of the Star Corridor are courtyard queen rooms. Each courtyard queen room is equipped with a patio and a terrace. The rooms are high and transparent. Through the glass curtain wall of the room, you can view the courtyard green bamboos. As the four gentlemen among flowers, the green bamboos are also a major feature of Sichuan. The green bamboos in the mansion add a unique cultural atmosphere to the hotel.
If Jinshe is a traditional style that "follows the legend of Anren for thousands of years", Jinyuan is a "fashion style that continues the customs of a century-old residence"; on the first floor is Mu Bar, which is named Moon Bar because of the moonlight, shares one place with the front desk reception! The fashionable wine bar is exquisitely designed. The space uses sculpture to combine it with the bar. The sculpted human body divides it into inner and outer parts, giving a vision that travels through time and space.
Jinyuan has 26 rooms, with a high-level duplex room type and simple European fashion as the main theme! There are skylights on the roof of the house to visualize the galaxy. The spatial layout is rigorous. A net-type trampoline is installed between the floors of the room to satisfy children's desire to pursue surprises and be active.
In addition, the hotel also has a business district-Jintang Conference Center. As the business district of the hotel, Jintang has a characteristic multi-function hall and 4 conference rooms of various types, namely the center hall, Shengping hall, Welcome hall and Shuren hall.
In order to ensure smooth meetings, each conference room is equipped with meeting-dedicated infrared conference speeches, audio reinforcement, LED screen display, meeting information release, LCD lift display, wireless projection display system and other facilities. Professional stage, sound effects, lighting, automatic recording and other auxiliary facilities can also be provided to meet the needs of more meetings.
Jintang·Center Hall, which originates from the old street of Anren Ancient Town, is named "Center Street". It is the largest conference center with a pillar-free space with a floor height of 7 meters. At the same time, the panoramic skylight can be changed as needed, whether it is for conference training or banquet activities. Very suitable!
This time I stayed in the courtyard suite of Jinshe. After checking in, you will go to your room. When you walk through the starry gallery and open the door, the first feeling is "Wow"! What comes into view is not the ornate and pompous imagined, but just to see the green bamboo forests outside the window for the first time, and the shadows and the cherries move with the wind. Such an elegant small scene design is really fascinating.
I looked back and looked around the entire room. The room was a courtyard suite with a new Chinese style as the main theme. With the raw wood color as the main theme, the layout is simple and low-key, but it exudes warmth everywhere. There is almost no decoration in the room. Plain white curtains, bedding, warm yellow walls, and simple and elegant bedding make the entire environment soft and warm.
The floor is paved with solid wood floors, and you feel comfortable walking anywhere in the room barefoot. And in order to ensure that the room is dry and comfortable, all rooms are equipped with floor heating facilities to ensure that the room is free of humidity and coldness.
In the Mini Bar area in the foyer, the small refrigerator is filled with all kinds of drinks. It is also equipped with a capsule coffee maker, tea bags, fruit platters and nut snacks on the coffee table. It is very comprehensive and meets various needs, just like you are at home.
Bed in the center, but you don't realize anything wrong with it. On the contrary, you have a leisurely charm. The rooms are equipped with international standard Jinkeer mattresses. In order to sleep better, each room is equipped with four different pillows.
There are sliding doors leading to the bathing area on both sides of the bed. There are phones, sockets, and switches on the bedside table. All of them are designed for the most practical functions. One button to turn off the light and one button to turn off the night light, which is considerate and practical. The elegance of these small details is very rare.
The mattress and pillows are moderately soft and soft. For someone like me with an old waist, it is simply heaven! The sheets feel very natural. It is not as smooth as silk, nor is it as thick as linen. Just the right amount of comfort, relieve all stress and fatigue in one second. "Just right" means the best.
The biggest highlight is that this suite is equipped with Thonet No. 14 curved wooden chair with a brand history of more than 150 years. It was designed and produced by the top German furniture manufacturer Thonet in 1859 and awarded a gold medal at the 1867 Paris World Expo. Thonet14 is called "the chair of all chairs" because of its beautiful, smooth and lightweight shape and is favored by many famous people such as Picasso, Einstein, and Corbusier. At present, this chair is still an intangible cultural heritage protection product in Germany!
It is worth mentioning that the hotel's soundproofing effect is good, and you will not hear the sound of the next room or the corridor at all. It is a blessing for patients with light sleepers.
Walking into the bathroom, there are more surprises. Toothpaste, toothbrush, body wash, shampoo, and conditioner are displayed one by one. The overall interior of the bathroom area is made of white marble and is equipped with two sets of sinks. The bathtub is located near the wall in the middle. You can take a bath at night to wash off your fatigue.
After taking a break, go to Jinxiu Anren Flower Park to find beautiful scenery and time. It takes a five-minute drive to Jinxiu Flower Park, like a fairyland on earth swaying in the sea of flowers.
Castles, flower carvings, plank roads, river water, sea of flowers... embark on a fairy tale journey!
The entire park is divided into nine theme areas with "Fantasy Adventures" as the main line, combining characteristic flower carvings such as the Castle in the Mirror, the Magic Bean Town, the King's Birthday, the Goddess's Gift, and the Grandpa of the Tree. The vast sea of flowers in the park, and the exquisite flower paths are made up of more than 100 kinds of flower categories. The four seasons change and open. No matter whether the cold and heat overlap, the flowers bloom brightly. The colorful flowers are in the spring of March, the sun and the wind, and the golden sky. Autumn and mid-winter seasons are unique and beautiful.
The vast sea of flowers in the park is open all year round, which is pleasing to the eye; it also holds two Guinness World Records.
For romantic couples who want to spend an unforgettable night, South Bank Rural Garden Hotel is the best choice.
The south bank of the Xiejiang River is integrated with Jinxiu Anren Flower Park and Lavender Pastoral. As a representative of the regional wild luxury resort hotel, the unique 42 courtyard room types and beehive tree houses are scattered around the lavender garden covering an area of 30000 square meters, providing a brand new experience.
Living in a beehive hotel like this, the fresh air comes to your face, the fragrance of flower fields is on the tip of your nose, lying in bed in a daze and chatting, and you can no longer play with your mobile phone that you regard as life ~
Xiangyuan guest rooms range in size from 32㎡ to 76 ㎡, each equipped with an independent leisure space, either a viewing balcony, a top-floor terrace, or a courtyard behind the house. The rooms are full of design and complete supporting facilities.
The room has all-round views, and the bathroom is divided into dry and wet areas; especially the transparent floor-to-ceiling windows. When lavender is in full bloom outside the room, the romantic scenery can be seen, or when the sea of flowers is on the roof balcony, the flower garden is dotted with various flower carvings. It seems to be in a fairy tale world in a childhood dream...
If you want to return to nature, advocate simplicity, take a walk in the forest during the day, occasionally listen to a few quiet and melodious bird calls, and return to an original ecological lifestyle, I think the cottage is probably what you want!
Linpan Rural House Hotel, adjacent to Liu's Manor and Jianchuan Museum, lists 35 forest houses in a landscape park covering an area of about 20000 square meters. The park is surrounded by tall trees and green bamboos, bamboo fences are used as walls, and Xiaolong River passes by, showing the charm of western Sichuan countryside.
Whether you want a Mansion Cultural Hotel, an Internet celebrity Huahai Hotel, or a rural outdoor hotel, you can satisfy it here!
I don't know if anyone like me stays in a hotel. In addition to looking forward to a quiet environment, perfect service, and a nice bed, they also look forward to a good dining experience.
An Kee Restaurant is located on the right side of the lobby on the first floor of Jinyuan. It adopts the traditional Cantonese naming method. The restaurant is based on new Sichuan cuisine and incorporates authentic Cantonese specialty morning tea. The overall decoration of the restaurant is very elegant, and the dishes produced are very delicious, just enough to comfort the stomach for a day.
The new Dengying beef has crispy bamboo shoots in double-flavored sauce, fish wrapped in crispy paper, and fresh matsutake chicken soup. It is exquisitely presented and tastes very good.
After dinner, the night grew darker, red lanterns on both sides of Shuren Street lit up, the shadows of the mansion buildings blurred, and the cars were closed, making the town more peaceful. But another feast in Anren Ancient Street is quietly beginning and certainly cannot be missed.
"Today's Anren" is a unique immersive experiential drama performance in Anren. It uses four century-old mansions as performance venues. Through the four themes of Simei, Juyi, Marriage and Fate, it tells a story about "choice" and "faith" that happened in Anren in the 1930s.
One second ago, while still experiencing the prosperity and excitement of the Bund in the southwest of the Republic of China, the sudden appearance of the heroine brought another slow and static time experience. In this new time, reality and memories, imagination, instant and eternal, The present and the past are integrated into one.
After watching the performance of "Today's Today", go to the Whisky Museum hidden in Chen Yuesheng's residence for a drink. Is it more special to enjoy whiskey in the old residence in the ancient town?
This is the most complete single malt whisky collection and tasting space in China, including more than 600 different single malt whiskies in 180 distilleries in Scotland, more than 100 malt whiskies in other producing areas around the world, 50 antique auction-grade single malt whiskies, etc. Display here!
Chengdu needs a glass of whiskey in winter. Swallow it with your head raised and it seems that the cold air accumulated in your chest throughout autumn and winter can be instantly melted away. It's strong, charming, but it can return to peace.
When I wake up in the morning, there is a buffet breakfast that combines Chinese and Western medicine in Anren Mansion. Delicious bread is added with fresh fruits, eggs and steamed buns. Each of these are common ingredients that can be seen everywhere, but they are all so delicious.
While I was still immersed in my thoughts, the sound of "Dang ~" slowly came from afar. The bluestone slabs that have just been soaked by the winter rain are lazy and scattered, quiet and stretching, with a gentle breeze and mottled tree shadows. This story extended from the stone roads, this tranquil scene, is not the feeling of a town that has been sought for a long time?
The beauty of the cheongsam and the pictorial posted on the blue bricks make the customs of the past more clearly appear in front of your eyes. Between the alleys and small streets, the sound of hooves in the past seemed to be clearly ringing in my ears. Various exquisite and compact stores do not feel inconsistent among them. Clothing stores, handmade cultural creations, and each family is also properly opened. The careful design style attracts people to go in and have a look.
The gray sculpted lines on the door outline the elegant charm of the Republic of China. They unconsciously abandon the inner hustle and bustle and sink down to experience the heritage of this ancient town. A combination of Chinese and Western, and a smooth combination of new and old, few ancient towns are as comfortable as Anren ~
