Tonglu Conrad | Playing with Furry Friends in the Landscape of "Dwelling in the Fuchun Mountains"

As the car crosses the Fenshui River Bridge,
the Shiba Inu in the back seat suddenly rests its paws on the window ledge.
Layer upon layer of tea mountains cradle 77 glazed villas,
as if the Tonglu Conrad Hangzhou were a fragment of emerald green plucked from the ancient painting "Dwelling in the Fuchun Mountains."
At an altitude of 800 meters, amidst a sea of clouds, it builds a floating natural theater for urbanites and their beloved pets.

🐾 Exclusive Pet Amenities: VIP Treatment That Outshines Their Humans
Upon opening the door to the terrace villa with a private hot spring,
a pet bed wrapped in gambiered gauze awaits in the foyer.
The welcome gift box from the butler holds delightful surprises:
a pet name tag carved from wild walnut wood, chew sticks made from dried Fuchun River silverfish,
and a dogwood flea spray stored in a bamboo canister.

The most astonishing moment comes when the Ragdoll cat curls up on the temperature-controlled cushion.

🌳 Wilderness Adventure Guide: A Symphony of Paw Prints and Footsteps
At dawn, the dedicated pet concierge's backpack is already stocked with a chilled water bottle and biodegradable waste bags.
Following the moss-covered ancient trail toward Tiger Roar Gorge,
the Golden Retriever leaps into the tinkling mountain spring, splashing rainbows,
while the Corgi's short legs carve waves through the raspberry bushes.
At the stargazing lawn halfway up the mountain, a server emerges from the pine forest,
unfolding a picnic blanket with a pet-exclusive afternoon tea:
Longjing tea jelly with duck meat scones, bamboo fungus chicken broth jelly cups,
and even dog-friendly macarons adorned with edible gold foil paw prints.

🛋️ Human-Pet Symbiosis Aesthetic: Warmth More Luxurious Than Five Stars
While you savor Michelin-starred sous-vide beef ribs by the infinity pool,
your furry companion lounges in a custom wicker swing, nibbling on the chef's slow-roasted cod skin crisps.
As night falls, steam rises from the pet hot spring area on the villa terrace.
Your dog, wearing a lavender-scented life ring, splashes in the shallow pool,
while the Riesling in your hand reflects the stars gradually lighting up the sky.

On checkout day, the Shiba Inu's collar gains a bamboo badge engraved with "Tonglu Mountain Dweller."
Looking back at the glazed architecture fading into the mist,
you suddenly understand this luxury hotel's most touching secret—
so-called pet-friendliness is simply letting humans rediscover, through their pets' eyes,
the gentle, animistic world as it was meant to be.
