Xi'an! This wabi-sabi style hotel is absolutely amazing

As a history buff and design enthusiast, I felt like I struck gold when I discovered the Xi'an Yangchen Hotel! It's not just a place to stay, it's like an art gallery hidden at the foot of the city wall. What captivated me the most is the view of the ancient city wall framed right outside the window, as if I was living in a historical painting. The hotel nestles at the northeast corner of the Xi'an city wall, neighboring the Chaoyang Gate, yet it stands as a realm of tranquility on its own. Far from the hustle and bustle of the Bell Tower and the Muslim Quarter, every step here is a dialogue between the new and the old. After a tiring day wandering the ancient city, the night view of the city wall becomes my gentlest goodnight. The exterior of Yangchen is simple yet elegant, with a courtyard-style layout that offers a view at every step. The blend of Eastern Zen and the historical charm of the old capital is evident in every corner, reflecting the designer's careful consideration. Stepping in here, even breathing slows down. The family room I stayed in was surprisingly spacious, with details that added extra points. The soup pool suite comes with its own small garden, and at night, the silhouette of the city wall becomes the most unique background music. I must mention, the Parma water toiletries are simply synonymous with a refined lifestyle.
