Stay in a Jiangnan Ink Painting｜Banyan Tree Yangcheng Lake

🌿A hidden fairyland, commanding the prime spot at Yangcheng Lake~
Banyan Tree Yangcheng Lake🏡 is located on the east side of the "Beauty Leg" peninsula, surrounded by the lake on three sides. Open the window to see the shimmering lake surface🌊 and swaying reeds🌾. A 1-hour drive🚗 takes you straight to Suzhou city center, with picturesque scenery along the way. Watch the sunrise☀️ dye the lake red in the morning and enjoy the golden sunset🌅 in the evening, as if living inside a flowing Jiangnan ink painting🖼️.

🛏️Private hot spring starlit room, 66㎡ to lie back and watch the lake!~
The "Fragrant Listening Private Hot Spring Room" I stayed in this time made me scream! A huge 66㎡ space with panoramic floor-to-ceiling windows🪟 framing Yangcheng Lake as a natural canvas🖼️. The best part is the private hot spring pool♨️ on the terrace. When night falls, sprinkle rose🌹 petals, soak in the hot spring♨️ while gazing at the starry sky🌃, with only the sound of wind and insects🐦 in your ears—romance💕 maxed out! Room details are perfect💯: imperial kiln gold bricks, Su-style begonia pattern ornaments, and even the incense is Banyan Tree🏡’s classic incense sticks, instantly transporting you through time.
