Hangzhou's 'Santorini', experience the artistic sanctuary of color aesthetics

Xiangshan Art Commune, based on the design blueprint of the 'Distant Mountain Stream' by the Southern Song Dynasty painter Xia Gui, is led by Li Kaisheng, the vice dean of the Academy of Fine Arts. Since its opening in December 2018, it has been ranked among the 'Top 10 Artistic Landmarks in Hangzhou', known as the Monument Valley of Hangzhou, the 'Santorini' of Hangzhou, the 'City in the Sky' of Hangzhou, and a creative sanctuary without walls and boundaries. Xiangshan Art Commune is based on the three colors of white, gray, and black. The white walls, black tiles, and wooden windows are both modern and classical, and every shot is a masterpiece. The buildings are built on the mountain with a sense of hierarchy, it is a sanctuary for literati to experience color aesthetics, and also a popular check-in spot for various photographers and internet celebrities. 59 different styles of Jiangnan houses, one step at a time, looping back and forth, inheriting the unique charm of the water town. Every brick and tile is endowed with unique architectural craftsmanship, and it has a different charm regardless of the weather. The seven views of Nanxi across the two banks, namely Siwang Bridge, Linwang Bridge, Shanwang Bridge, Jingwang Bridge, Fuwang Bridge, Langwang Bridge, and Huiwang Bridge, create a clear and distant lake and mountain view. Although it is adjacent to the National Beauty, the former internet celebrity traffic bearer is hard to continue, and the number of tourists taking pictures and checking in is decreasing. With the unbinding of the National Beauty Graduation Exhibition, there are very few good exhibitions that are out of the circle. In Hangzhou, a city where internet celebrities are multiplying, how to 'live poetically' in the era of capital and traffic is still a long way off.
