✨|||Girls! Just discovered a heavenly hotel hidden in a Jiangnan-style garden! Open the window to the shimmering Nanhu Lake, with white walls and black tiles adorned with fresh early summer greenery—every snap is instantly social media-worthy 📸
🏯 Hotel Highlights:
A Chinese aesthetic hotel with its own garden charm! Lake-view rooms frame the entire Nanhu Lake through floor-to-ceiling windows. The courtyard features rockeries and water features, creating picturesque scenes at every turn, and even the hydrangeas at the corners bloom gently in late May. Families with kids, take note! Indoor heated pool + kid-friendly activities + children's breakfast packages, and the butler thoughtfully prepares little gifts for the little ones 🎁
📍 Unbeatable Location:
Just a 10-minute walk from Jiaxing Railway Station, and the Red Boat at Nanhu is right outside the door! Wake up early to enjoy Misty Rain Tower without the crowds. Jog along the lakeside boardwalk as the morning breeze carries the fragrance of lotus leaves—this is the perfect way to embrace early summer!
🚶 Endless Nearby Fun:
✔️ A 5-minute walk takes you to Nanhu Tiandi shopping district, with trendy milk tea and lakeside brunch spots.
✔️ A 10-minute bike ride unlocks the Gothic romance of the Catholic Church, where the white architecture under the trees looks like a dreamy wedding backdrop.
✔️ Spend a day exploring nearby ancient towns! Just 40 minutes by car, you can drift on a boat in Xitang to the sound of cicadas, or check out the newly opened Song Dynasty-style market in Puyuan—perfect for Hanfu lovers to snap stunning shots on cobblestone streets!
Psst: The hotel’s tea room serves iced Longjing tea that pairs perfectly with the lake-view terrace. At sunset, curl up in a wicker chair with a cold drink and watch the reflection of Wu Xiang Temple’s pagoda shimmer on the golden lake—this is the ultimate early summer therapy in Jiangnan 💫
