Hangzhou is the famous Jiangnan area. Walking around with an oil-paper umbrella? Embankment, Su Causeway, Broken Bridge; Sightseeing by boat, on? Yingzhou, Lake? Tour the island and admire the Santan Seal, The poetic and picturesque Jiangnan has a panoramic view.

Nowadays, many places in and around Hangzhou have become resorts for people in Shanghai, such as Mogan Mountain, Qiandao Lake, and the Xianghu Lake mentioned today. There are always a few good hotels in these resorts that allow you to relax for a few days.

Hangzhou Xianghu Xiaoyao Manor is located in the beautiful and historical Hangzhou Xianghu National Tourism Resort. It has mountains and water and lives alone on the banks of Xianghu Lake, which is praised as the "Sister Lake" of Hangzhou West Lake; now it has become a new lifestyle in Hangzhou. Landmark and a good place for Shanghai to pursue high-quality vacations.

Xiaoyao Manor is jointly built by the award-winning GOA Elephant Architectural Design Company, HBA of the United States, and P49 Design Firm of Thailand. It takes the return to nature as the core design concept, integrating the artistic conception of mountain residence contained in oriental aesthetics with natural elements adapted to local conditions, reconceptualizing contemporary high-end vacation living standards.

I started playing aerial photography in the past few years, so I took this opportunity to take a newly upgraded aerial camera and fly it over the manor, hoping to record a different perspective of the manor.

The car arrived at the drop-off area in the lobby of Xiaoyao Manor. The bellman enthusiastically helped with my luggage and guided me to the front desk of the manor to check in. I think many people, like me, can't help but take a few photos with their mobile phones when passing by the lobby and courtyard area of the manor.

The manor carefully carves public areas, and the bright and open atrium is surrounded by floor-to-ceiling windows, intertwined with light and shadow.

When night falls and the lights begin to turn on, the lobby courtyard of the manor is the most beautiful time. Its design is inspired by the winding streams in the natural valley. It uses islands, pine forests, winding streams, and arch bridges to create the natural feeling of the stream passing through the valley; the white gravel paved path is like ripples on the water surface, which is quite Zen.

At this time, the ancient tune with a strong Zen flavor sounded again, making people seem to have stepped into the ancient court.

It's refreshing to come to the open lobby of the manor. The layout of the lobby is transparent on three sides. The front desk faces the courtyard. On the left, you can reach the restaurant, tea bar, bar, banquet hall and other public areas. There are floor-to-ceiling glass doors on the entire face. Introduce the mountain lake view and provide direct access to the outdoors; on the right are to the guest rooms, book bars, SPA, and other more private areas.

The Phalaenopsis placed in the middle of the lobby echo the bird lanterns hanging down, while the background wall behind the front desk is painted with Hangzhou embroidery, which vividly presents the beautiful scenery of Xianghu Lake.

The path to the guest room is a secluded book bar. It must be very rare to read a good book in such a secluded environment.

Of course, there are also the mountains and rivers that can be seen through the floor-to-ceiling glass, which is also fascinating. The layers of water features remind me of Jiuzhaigou in Sichuan and Lanyue Valley in Yunnan.

The interior decoration of the manor complements the beautiful scenery of the exterior. The 181 stylish and elegant rooms currently open in the manor are equipped with spacious private balconies, overlooking the Xianghu Lake and enjoying the beautiful scenery of the garden.

The rooms adopt a new Chinese design concept, full of classical charm, and at the same time have a rich sense of spatial hierarchy, creating a flexible layout of the space. They aim to create a private mansion away from the hustle and bustle of the city and create a private and pleasant time.

The inspiration for the paving of the toilet comes from the delicate way of laying the floor with bricks and stones in Jiangnan gardens. The sink is made by hand.

The open bathing area blurs the boundaries of the space and integrates more living scenes into the bathroom space. The independent floor-to-ceiling circular bathtub gives bathing a more free and comfortable experience. The walk-in thermostat tropical rainforest shower enhances the feeling of bathing and removes all fatigue. Toiletries have introduced the ancient American royal fragrance brand Agraria Aigre and Golden Cassis golden blackcurrant series.

The furniture in the room is elegant and elegant in style, the plain sofa is concise and comfortable, and the solid wood furniture is exquisite in detail. It is decorated with exquisite Chinese-style porcelain, lacquer ware, and floral art and other soft decoration works, adding a humanistic atmosphere to the room, showing the golden mean everywhere and full of Chinese elements.

Xiaoyao Manor recently joined hands with super "Internet Yellow"Pancoat to launch the Little Yellow Duck Parent-Child Room, making the travel of parent-child families more comfortable and childlike! Pushing open the door, you can see the childlike colors. The little yellow duck decorations can be seen everywhere, giving you and your children a completely different new experience! The little yellow duck parent-child room is equipped with slides, swings, and water toys, all carefully crafted for the children.

Xianghu Xiaoyao Manor has 5 unique restaurants, teahouses and bars for food connoisseurs to choose from. It has an exquisite and elegant dining environment, allowing guests to enjoy the beautiful scenery of Xianghu while tasting wine and food.

Enjoy your vacation in the afternoon sun. Guests can sit in front of the five-meter-high floor-to-ceiling windows in the lobby bar, or enjoy exquisite and elegant afternoon tea and refreshments on the outdoor terrace, with an unobstructed view of the lake. Nowadays, the afternoon tea launched by the manor is very popular among the guests, and many beautiful young ladies come here to check in. Of course, while enjoying the delicious food, you can enjoy the beautiful scenery, which is also a highlight.

If you like to drink, the lobby bar of the manor is a must-see place. A wide variety of wines, champagnes, brandies, whiskeys, cocktails, as well as a selection of Chinese and Western wine snacks are served here to meet the different taste needs of guests. Mojito, which is very popular recently, would you like a drink?

Guests who like to drink tea can taste a variety of high-quality tea in Songjiantang Tea Room to completely relax their body and mind. The scenery here is also fascinating.

A beautiful day starts with a hearty breakfast. Guests can enjoy it at the manor's Yuncong all-day restaurant during breakfast time. The restaurant offers a wide variety of global buffet food, or you can taste a la carte dishes carefully prepared by the chefs. When it is not hot in the morning, guests can also eat in the outdoor area of the restaurant. Accompanying the singing of birds in the mountains and the aroma of the morning in the woods, it is also a very pleasant thing to enjoy a delicious breakfast.

Lunch and dinner can be enjoyed at the elegant and quaint Shuiyang Chinese Restaurant. The manor chef team launches innovative Hanggang cuisine for guests, and also incorporates new healthy Cantonese cuisine, just to give guests multiple dining options and experiences.

If you are dining with a large family or a company reunion, the seven luxurious private rooms in Shuiyang Chinese Restaurant and the four independent lakeside landscape private rooms with full floor-to-ceiling windows are a good dining environment. Guests can indulge in the beautiful scenery of Xianghu while enjoying fashionable specialties in a bright and warm environment.

The manor provides guests with a wealth of leisure and entertainment facilities, including a full-service SPA spa, spacious indoor and outdoor swimming pools, a well-equipped fitness center, a time book bar, a children's playground, a music bar, a chess and card room, a billiard room, etc.

If good friends are here for vacation, you can go and experience the billiards area of the manor.

If you are a couple or couple who want to work out, then the manor's gym is a must-miss check-in point. The pillars and glass cabinets cleverly isolate the fitness equipment, giving guests a private fitness space. The best way to get fit is when two people encourage each other.

The scenery of dry mountains and rivers outside the floor-to-ceiling glass windows gives you a comfortable visual experience while exercising.

The indoor swimming pool of the manor is also a good place for fitness. The large recliners give guests a strong feeling of vacation.

For families bringing children on vacation, in addition to the outdoor swimming pool, this children's playground is also a good place to walk their children.

Summer is here, and I think the outdoor swimming pool in the manor will be a popular check-in point. In time of sunny and good weather, go to the outdoor swimming pool with your loved ones to enjoy swimming.

Of course, if you are not satisfied with the entertainment venues of the manor, you can also walk to the Xianghu Scenic Area next to the manor. Xiasun Boat Port at the entrance of Xianghu Xiaoyao Manor has an antique Xianghu cruise ship. While visiting the scenery of Xianghu Lake, we listen to the tour guide explaining the culture of crossing the lake bridge 8,000 years ago. 2500 years ago, Wu Yue fought for hegemony, and Gou Jian, the King of Yue,"endured hardships and tasted courage", the allusions of "feeding fish to retreat from the enemy", the love story of Fan Li and Xi Shi Shi...

Take a boat trip to Xianghu? Are you here? Up?,? Swim in the painting. Is Jiangnan more visible here? The taste of countryside is that there are no people crowded with people, only the calm water occasionally streaking a boat. Everyone says that Jiangnan is good, but tourists only like Jiangnan. The spring water is blue than the sky, and the painted boat listens to the rain and sleeps." This is really a heart-shaking artistic conception.
