🌟Highlights:
Years ago, touring Hangzhou meant circling West Lake obsessively, following the typical tourist route. It was as if one hadn't truly visited Hangzhou without memorizing "both light and heavy makeup suit her well."
Today, with time steeping like tea in our travel memories, we discover there's a whole world beyond West Lake. Xixi's greenery is like an unframed ink landscape painting.
❤Why We Recommend:
"Balance of Wild and Luxury": Preserving the wetland's original persimmon trees, reed marshes, and waterways, while using concrete, natural wood, and glass in geometric lines to create modern aesthetics that "blend with nature."
"Mokusu" Cultural Symbol: The hotel name "Mokusu" comes from Japanese, meaning deliberately preserved unharvested fruits, symbolizing reverence for nature. The design incorporates local elements like persimmon trees (native to Xixi Wetland), wupeng boats, and rammed earth walls.
🏨Hotel Environment:
40 rooms and villas, categorized as "Hidden Stream," "Stream View," and "Stream Chase" series, starting from 60㎡, some rooms feature private soaking pools or waterfront terraces.
🛏Room Amenities:
Floor-to-ceiling windows bring in natural scenery, interiors feature grey and brown color schemes, complemented by custom furniture, tatami tea areas, BOSE speakers, and Dyson hair dryers.
🍽Dining Recommendations:
Specializing in Hangzhou cuisine and creative Jiangnan dishes, signature dishes include "Persimmon Wishes" (persimmon mousse) and "Xixi Fish Head Supreme," using ingredients from wetland waters and local farms.
