Experience an Architectural Poem of Ancient and Modern Dialogue on Chunxi Road in Chengdu

In the heart of Chengdu's bustling Chunxi Road commercial district, Jin Tou Ancient Vestige Hotel stands like a smooth jade disc. The entrance preserves the original blue brick doorway and copper plaque, instantly transporting visitors into the memory of old Chengdu's street life; stepping into the lobby, the seven-meter-high glass dome draws clouds and skylight inside, creating a fascinating overlay of traditional courtyard and modern atrium. The corridor area recreates the spatial charm of Western Sichuan residences' "horse-turning corner towers" through staggered passageway designs. At each turn, you might encounter a replica of a Han Dynasty pottery figurine or a bronze sculpture inspired by Sanxingdui masks created by contemporary artists. The guest rooms exemplify new Chinese minimalism at its finest. Sichuan embroidery works hanging above the bed shimmer with silk's distinctive luster under spotlights. Sitting in a German Walter Knoll lounge chair, you can simultaneously appreciate the perfectly preserved gray plaster roof ridges and the surreal landscape formed by Taikoo Li's glass curtain walls in the distance. The bathroom spaces are stunning, creating a material dialogue between contemporary German fixtures and locally quarried shale panels. All rooms are equipped with custom mattresses and lighting systems with adjustable color temperature. The hotel restaurant positions itself as a "New Sichuan Cuisine Laboratory." The chef team deeply understands the essence of Sichuan cuisine—"one dish, one style; a hundred dishes, a hundred flavors"—yet boldly deconstructs tradition. Creative dishes like mapo tofu with black truffle and Kung Pao French foie gras offer refreshing surprises. The 24-hour library houses an extensive collection of books on Ba-Shu culture; the SPA center incorporates Taoist "Five Elements Energy" concepts, using native Sichuan herbs for therapy; the hotel also offers hanfu (traditional Chinese clothing) experiences, adding a special charm to strolls through Taikoo Li in traditional attire. The hotel's location is perfect, within walking distance to Taikoo Li underground plaza, where luxury flagship stores neighbor independent designer boutiques. The surrounding area is dotted with local favorites from humble eateries to various food stalls, offering everything from wonton to spicy skewers.
