In the scorching summer, the weather was hot and dry, and I just wanted to find a place with pleasant scenery to relax. However, office workers had limited time and couldn't go far away. So Hangzhou became our only choice for weekend vacation. It has both historical heritage and beautiful scenery."Lotus leaves connecting the sky are infinitely green, and lotus flowers reflecting the sun are exceptionally red." It's like Hangzhou immersed in Tang and Song poems. There are really many reasons to fascinate people. For hotel owners, Hangzhou is also unique. There are too many hotels to choose from, with different styles. A hundred flowers bloom. Hangzhou Yuxiang Lake Health Resort Hotel, which I took my children to last weekend, is a good place for friends to gather and families to relax and vacation.

French romance, Chinese style

The hotel is located in Xianghu National Tourist Resort, with lakes and mountains on the doorstep. We drove there by car from Shanghai, which took about 3 hours.

The interior environment of the hotel is quite French romantic, with arches and columns, and some Chinese customs. The winding paths lead to the secluded scenery. Calligraphy and book decorations can be seen everywhere. For example, Hangzhou, a city that has a poetic and elegant charm.

In the transparent and open lobby, the sun shines in the afternoon, and a few goldfish are swimming around in the pool. Guests who come here, sitting on the sofa, seem to have a calm and leisurely feeling.

The hotel has a total of 228 rooms, which are divided into haze free rooms, meditation sleeping rooms, parent-child rooms, chess and card rooms, etc. according to different functions.

Each room is equipped with an air filtration system, which can effectively purify the air quality of the room. It is the first health and smart treatment hotel in Zhejiang Province.

While staying easily, guests can also enjoy the comfortable living feeling brought by the guest room circulation system. The room has elegant color matching, smart home, automatic curtains and smart slightly.

There are welcome fruits, not only sofas and beds, but also a large office area, with a clear layout.

The hotel has a small indoor and outdoor children's playground, which is a favorite for children. From morning to night, you can hear the laughter floating in it.

Adults who pay attention to body management seize the time to go to the gym not far from the children's playground to work out and sweat like rain.

Leisure, tongue time

As it was a leisure vacation with the children, we used three meals a day at the hotel.

The buffet breakfast is rich, and there are actually iced lychees, bayberry, dates, etc. among the fruits.

Chinese restaurants also follow the path of health preservation and provide ancient recipes and health dishes, which are light overall.

The seemingly ordinary steamed eggs actually show a beautiful light green color. I don't know what special formula has been added. Not only are they visually refreshing, but they also taste very summer.

My favorite is the afternoon tea in the hotel lobby bar. The lobby bar has an elegant environment and ancient books are placed on the ancient shelves, which has a fragrance of books and fits perfectly with the green plants outside the window.

Tourists from all over the world are sitting in the corners of sofas in the lobby bar. They may come from all over the world, but at this moment they are in a leisurely and happy mood.

This Hangzhou is not only a baby trip for me with Yuan Bao and Yu Ziyou, but also a year-long appointment with a high school classmate whom I have met for a long time. Back then, everyone was still ignorant adolescent girls. In the blink of an eye, the children were chasing each other in front of their eyes.

Afternoon tea is salty and sweet, as well as fruits and health tea.

Time flies by, recalling the past while chatting about the current daily life, eating fruits and tasting tea, and the powerful father taking his children to play billiards. Perhaps this is a different kind of happiness that belongs to our "middle-aged mothers".

Hanfu experience, Xianghu riding

The hotel provides rental of Hanfu, which is one of the special services. Both men and women have Hanfu. Yu Ziyou and I each chose a set of Hanfu to wear.

Get into the green bushes near the hotel and take the opportunity to realize a dream of traveling.

In addition, the hotel also provides bicycle rental. On summer evenings, you can ride a bicycle around Xianghu Lake. The cool breeze is blowing and it is very pleasant.

Walking through fountains and grasslands blooming summer flowers, until walking through the tree-lined road, Yuan Bao sat behind him and was very happy.

Health examination, Chinese health preservation

Different from ordinary hotels, the hotel takes "health management" as its core, integrates the essence of traditional Chinese health culture with modern and advanced healthy lifestyles, and provides a comprehensive and personalized customized service experience around the health service concept. It can be said that it is a health vacation brand that embodies the culture of Chinese culture.

The hotel not only has its own physical examination center, which can get professional and thoughtful physical examinations, but also has an anti-aging medical beauty center, which can provide customized beauty solutions.

It also has its own health center, where you can get professional traditional Chinese medicine health services such as nourishing righteousness moxibustion, dredging meridians and acupoint pressing. One-stop service allows guests to enjoy their own healthy and beautiful vacation.

To be honest, after visiting the health center, I couldn't wait to stay here for ten days and a half a month to recuperate my body in all aspects. I can't help it. I am middle-aged. For me, maintaining health is the biggest temptation and attraction.

Xianghu water charm, the king's feast

In summer, the lack of the severe cold of autumn and winter also means the rise of outdoor nightlife.

With our children, we went to see a Xianghu Water Show-"The King's Feast". It is not far from the hotel and only a 10-minute drive. It is a national masterpiece jointly created by Xianghu National Tourism Resort and the New Youth Song and Dance Troupe.

It combines water features, sound and light, dance, dinners, etc., and takes the Spring and Autumn Period and Warring States Period as the background when King Gou Jian of Yue returned from destroying Wu and banquets to all parties, integrating Xianghu's strong history, culture and folklore.

We sat in front of the table in the ancient market and traveled in one second.

When the wind blew in Xianghu, the King of Yue destroyed Wu and dominated the Central Plains. He invited the three countries of Lu, Chu, and Yiqu to meet on Xianghu to have a banquet with the King of Yue. There were really banquets to taste. From six food boxes to fruits to roasted chicken wings, the King's feast was indeed extraordinary.

Ten miles of lotus pond, lotus wind delivers fragrance

There are also Xianghu Lake, a sea of flowers and fragrant fields around the hotel. Flowers bloom all year round. It is midsummer and the lotus pond is ten miles away.

Sitting on a rowing boat, walking through the lotus leaves, fields, and the breeze blowing, and the lotus wind bringing fragrance. Perhaps there is nothing more summer than this.

In this way, we spent a leisurely and healthy slow weekend at Hangzhou Yuxiang Lake Health Resort Hotel. We are in an era where health is sold to time and pressure."Slow" seems to have become a luxury in life.

In the fast-paced moment, only by slowing down life and enjoying life in a timely manner can we better move forward.
