Choose a city you like and enjoy a spiritual journey.

Which city would you choose for your National Day trip? Would you choose a popular check-in spot for a special forces tour? Or choose a long-established tourist city and take a spiritual journey? No matter what method it is, it is best to choose the one that suits you and that you like. When I long to slow down and seek a deep rest for my mind and body, I will still choose a favorite city for a spiritual journey. Even if it is only for three days and two nights, it can recharge my tired soul. Xiamen is an ideal choice for a spiritual journey. This time when we went to Xiamen, we chose the Xiamen Marco Polo Oriental Hotel, a 27-year-old five-star hotel located on the shore of Yuandang Lake. The hotel enjoys a superior geographical location, convenient transportation and elegant environment. The hotel's wraparound space design gives the atrium a unique space. The atrium seats are 25 meters high and the ceiling is fully transparent, allowing sunlight to shine in from high above, making it very clear. This lobby bar creates an elegant and quiet atmosphere, suitable for casual business meetings, or you can enjoy exquisite afternoon tea here. 🛏️Room This time we stayed in the Premier Lake View Room, a super large room of 60 square meters with a white theme and full of French style. From the large floor-to-ceiling windows, you can overlook the beautiful scenery of Xihu Lake, watch pedestrians strolling around the lake, and watch egrets flying gracefully...time passes slowly and leisurely. There is also an extra-large curved desk in the guest room. When traveling with children, we can easily work and the children can do their homework at the same time. The bathroom is also very large, with double sinks and a large bathtub, as well as a separate dressing room. The details are very user-friendly. 🥩Food [General] Japanese restaurant, where you can enjoy a feast for both your eyes and taste buds~ The newly launched Jin Kelly themed teppanyaki set meal, different ingredients are paired with Jin Kelly's different flavors of cheese, cheese, butter, etc. The heat and freshness are intertwined and fully integrated on the iron plate, bringing a creative teppanyaki cuisine.
