A minimalist aesthetic design style guesthouse from the Song Dynasty in Hangzhou

🏨 Pusu·Location (Xin'anjiang Store) ❤Recommended Reason: This guesthouse truly deserves the title of 'wild luxury.' Drifting on a boat, mooring by the misty islets, the traveler's sorrow grows at dusk. The wilderness is vast with low trees, the river clear and the moon close to man. This poem by Meng Haoran, 'Staying Overnight at Jiande River,' is about the Xin'an River (Jiande River), whose waters are not as turbulent as those of the Qiantang River. It is said that the water temperature remains around 18 degrees Celsius throughout the year, calmly witnessing the changes of the millennia on both banks. What changes is the succession of buildings, what remains unchanged is the gentle river, flowing slowly. 🌟Highlights: Located by the Xin'an River, Pusu·Location also inherits this tranquility and ancient charm, adopting the minimalist aesthetic design concept of the Song Dynasty, with an elegant color palette reminiscent of ink paintings. The landscaping in the public areas is also very harmonious. Wood, stone, bamboo groves, moss, river water, and distant mountains complement each other, allowing the architecture to blend seamlessly into the surrounding landscape and countryside without any discord. In winter, the fields around the guesthouse have already been harvested, and the trees in the courtyard have withered away, but there is still a sense of cold and lonely beauty. It is said to deserve the title of 'wild luxury' because one can clearly feel the pursuit of quality. 🛏Room Facilities: Although not large, with only 21 rooms, the necessary facilities are very complete. The outdoor infinity pool is beautiful, and there is a Japanese restaurant by the pool, both the environment and the taste are quite good. There is underfloor heating! In the winter of Jiangsu, Zhejiang, and Shanghai, any hotel with underfloor heating deserves praise, especially since winters without heating can be particularly cold. Amenities include not only face towels, cleansing cream, facial cleanser, and sleep masks, but even a straightening iron. The bath products are from O'right, and the scent of Red Sunset Orange is always refreshing. The bamboo square bathtub, paired with floor-to-ceiling windows separated by vertical wooden slats, has an antique feel, and the atmosphere for a private bath springs up immediately. 📝Note tips: There is a row of bicycles outside the lobby that can be borrowed. If the weather is not too cold, you can ride around the surrounding fields, or even take a ride around the river, which is also interesting. 👍Most Recommended: There are two sets of 'touhu' at the entrance of the lobby, a ceremonial game popular during the Song Dynasty. Perhaps because I was too engrossed in the drama 'The Story of Minglan,' seeing this game in reality made me particularly excited. In spring and summer, when all things revive and are full of life, it should be another kind of beauty with vitality. Looking forward to staying again in the summer!
