Stay in a Republic of China-era building in Nanjing

Architecture is solidified history and a microcosm of the times. Mr. Liang Sicheng once said, "Every culture in history has produced its own architecture." Nanjing is known as the "home of Republic of China architecture." These buildings are not only the cultural context of Nanjing, but also the nostalgia of Nanjing people. Only by protecting and making good use of these old buildings can we preserve the history and culture of the city. This was once the site of the Nanjing Military Region Frontline Art Troupe and the former site of the National Revolutionary Army School for the Children of Martyrs Time has not erased their past These old buildings have been renovated and refurbished and have become the UrCove Hotel (Nanjing Zhongshan Scenic Area) This is not just a simple accommodation experience but a wonderful journey of cultural and artistic fusion ✔️The hotel retains the original rustic and elegant charm of the building, while adding a modern and stylish design. The public areas are full of artworks, exuding a low-key and elegant feeling. The sense of age and weight is even more diffused in the courtyard, and the products of time make people feel happy and respectful. ✔️The rooms are named after the plays (operas, dances, dramas, movies, TV series) produced by the Frontline Art Troupe, which is very interesting. Entering the room, you will find a delicate and elegant art space, a collision of design and history. The bathroom is separated into wet and dry areas, with verbena-scented toiletries, a Dyson hairdryer, and comfortable bathrobes, towels, and slippers. The courtyard room is filled with sunlight and the shadows of trees. You can make a cup of tea, read a book, or just relax in the courtyard. The light and shadow here are soft and layered, especially healing in winter. ✔️The breakfast includes Nanjing's famous duck blood vermicelli soup, which is worth trying. You can also have a cup of coffee ☕️, made with coffee beans from the Peet's Coffee brand, which is rich and mellow! ✔️The gym and laundry room are also fully equipped, and there is a UrCove Space next to the lobby, which is convenient for business travelers. ✔️Walking in the hotel courtyard, I felt the warmth of time, so real and yet so distant... I couldn't help but take pictures of every detail 🖼️. ✔️From the hotel, you can easily reach famous attractions such as the Ming Xiaoling Mausoleum, Meiling Palace, and Sun Yat-sen Mausoleum, and enjoy the beautiful scenery of Nanjing. 💓The hotel design uses the architectural language of the Republic of China to tell a modern story, which is immersive. I especially like this kind of hotel, where every building has its own story and every window frames a picture. We should thank the investors and operators for preserving these remaining historical buildings and taking good care of them. This is a meaningful thing in itself.
