THE Xiangyue Huating Resort Hotel has begun its trial operation.

“We aim to promote harmonious coexistenc­e between guests and nature, enabling them to savor the joys of life,” said the hotel’s marketing manager.

Surrounded by abundant natural resources including paddy fields, lakes, meadows, ponds, woods and rivers, the hotel is an excellent place for wellness and relaxation.

Beyond a sequence of arches lies a serene and elegant courtyard. The dark roof tiles on the white walls showcase exquisite carving techniques, while various plants thrive in the yard. An open-air hallway connects the surroundin­g rooms.

The interior decoration embraces traditiona­l Oriental aesthetics. The rooms offer expansive views, and guests can enjoy the beautiful garden landscape through the floor-to-ceiling windows.

The hotel has 12 rooms spread across two floors, including 10 king rooms, one twin room, and one suite.

“In addition to providing accommodat­ion, we also offer space for events, banquets, and parties,” said the manager.

Being part of Xiangyue Huating, an agricultur­al and tourism integratio­n project, the hotel also offers guests the opportunit­y to enjoy various recreation­al activities such as fruit and vegetable picking, archery, fishing and water sports.

The Jiading District government has collaborat­ed with Shanghai Land Group Co and Bluetown Property Constructi­on Management Co Ltd to jointly build the Xiangyue Huating project.

The project aims to create a comprehens­ive rural tourism complex integratin­g idyll, culture, tourism, wellness and rural living. It stands as a model of rural revitaliza­tion, built through collaborat­ion between the government and enterprise­s.

The Xiangyue Huating Resort Hotel, as a highlight of the project, is set to open 16 stand-alone villas with detached courtyard in the first half of this year.
