Captivated by this Chinese aesthetic—a hidden gem in Guangzhou, just 20 mins from the CBD.

Finally found the perfect Guangzhou getaway, only a 20-min drive from the CBD, nestled against the beautiful Baiyun Mountain ⛰️, boasting a 280,000㎡ oasis. I enjoyed a divine retreat with my mom at the Mingquanju Hotel, a truly stunning example of a Chinese brand hotel! Passing through three gates, the traffic noise was instantly replaced by birdsong. Unlike traditional Lingnan hotels, this one, designed by masters like He Jingtang and Chen Xiong, incorporates the majestic beauty of modern New Chinese style—grand architecture, adorned with priceless paintings and ancient trees, with fourteen buildings nestled among the green hills and clear waters. With the state guesthouse's touch, the newly renovated rooms are truly exceptional, meeting the standards of a luxury five-star hotel, with so many details worth mentioning: ▪️Dyson hair dryers + capsule coffee machines + smart toilets are just the basics. ▪️Smart dimming makeup mirrors cater to guests' needs. ▪️Two sets of toiletries: Jo Malone and Appelles. ▪️Biruchuan spring water is provided for tea brewing, adding a touch of ceremony. The most unforgettable experience was the five-senses feast at the Tingyuxuan Tea Room. The tea master's graceful movements performed the "phoenix three nods" ritual, while the breeze carried the tea's fragrance. Under the eaves, the water flowed, smoke curled upwards, and all the memories of spring were infused with this tea aroma🍵. The Yu Yuan Chinese Restaurant, helmed by a Michelin-starred chef, was the grand finale! Five-clawed dragon porcelain held delicacies cooked with Biruchuan spring water, even my mom praised the exquisite flavors. The nine-grid platter couldn't contain all the delicious dishes, and looking back at the photos still makes my mouth water. One day and one night was not enough! I've already made plans with my mom to return in the summer and unlock more hidden experiences🏡. If you'd like tips on choosing a room at Mingquanju, feel free to ask in the comments~
