InterContinental Xi'an North is not just a place to stay; it's a time capsule of memories waiting to be captured in your photo album. Discover these 'hidden photo spots' and let your pictures tell a story.
📸 Welcoming Pine
The welcoming pine at the entrance of the lobby exudes an oriental charm.
💡 Photography Tip:
Sit casually near the green plant partition, with arms crossed or resting on a flat surface.
📸 'Floating Qinling' Art Installation
The 3D artwork in the lobby showcases the layered peaks of the Qinling Mountains, subtly revealing the outlines of the ancient city's Bell Tower and Big Wild Goose Pagoda.
💡 Photography Tip:
Stand beside the artwork, facing the camera or in profile. Unlock the hidden spot on the second floor for an overhead shot, inspired by Songzi's video perspective.
📸 'Link' Wooden Sculpture
The twisting wooden sculpture with its intricate grain symbolizes the convergence and resonance of cultures.
💡 Photography Tip:
Capture a candid shot while walking past the sculpture, looking forward or in profile.
📸 CHAR Restaurant
Outside the window lies an urban oasis, while inside, a blend of modern and vintage textures creates a sophisticated ambiance.
💡 Photography Tip:
Use the window as a frame for a backlit silhouette. Try a crossed-leg stance with arms folded or reading a book. Alternatively, sit sideways to highlight your leg line, with your elbow lightly resting on the table.
