In contrast with today’s fast paced lifestyle, Fairmont Yangcheng Lake offers a different vacation choice that blends the environment and nature with humanity. It perfectly satisfies city-based travelers’ pursuit of returning to an idyllic countryside lifestyle.
Embrace Nature to Enrich the Spirit
Human beings are innately close to nature. Spanning 200 acres on the banks of Yangcheng Lake, Sun Dew Park’s name was derived from Tao Yuanming's poem "Guiyuan Tianju". A natural hive was built in the park; surrounded by the refreshing fragrance of rapeseed, Chinese milk vetch, loquat, jujube and eucalyptus, it is an excellent environment for bees to produce honey. Guests can accompany local beekeeping experts to observe hardworking bees at a close distance. Guests can discover their habits, understand the benefits of honey, and taste the pure, natural nectar that bees so effortlessly make. The water sports club is also located in the beautiful Sun Dew Park, which is an ideal choice for water vacation aficionados. During hot summers, guests can beat the heat by embarking on a night time kayak tour to explore the lake’s charm under the moon and stars.
Experience Traditional Farming
A Ping is Fairmont Yangcheng Lake’s culture and sustainability ambassador. Born and raised in Xishan, Suzhou, A Ping boasts many years of farming experience. Every year, A Ping leads hotel guests, facilitating their experience of various folk activities according to different seasons. In the early spring, guests can try stir-fried tea, learn how to do Dragon Boat Festival’s rice dumplings, and visit crab cages and water town farmhouses to explore local customs and traditions. Summer can be experienced through the vibrant Yue Feng Island organic farm. A Ping delights in assisting guests with organic vegetables picking or showing them the area’s pastoral wilderness. After selecting fresh produce, guests can go to the Wugu Culinary Studio to study with A Ping. As they create seasonal delicacies, they can listen enthralled in the various interesting folk stories that A Ping shares.
Classical Kunqu Opera
Active guests can take off on a bicycle from Fairmont Yangcheng Lake hotel and ride among the golden flowers. With a ten minutes ride passing through a green bamboo forest alongside a small river, guests reach the Kunqu School. Every weekend, there is a performance of Kunqu opera. The 600 year old Kunqu Opera Society allows people to discover the extraordinary history of this village and to acquaint themselves with its culture.
To Taste and Savor
Guests have a wealth of choice when it comes to dining at Fairmont Yangcheng Lake. They can choose Yi Feng Court Chinese Restaurant for Yangcheng Lake and local specialties. Those with a more global palette can enjoy all-day-dining restaurant Essence with its variety of international cuisines. Health conscious guests will delight in Wugu Restaurant and its selection of seasonal local organic cuisine. Regardless of the different food styles and tastes, all of the restaurants offer the same high quality service with authentic techniques and fresh ingredients to satisfy every guest’s taste buds.
Relax and Rejuvenate
The 1,300-square-meter Willow Stream Spa provides special hot mineral baths. This treatment makes full use of natural factors to promote blood circulation, speed up metabolism, and improve the skin’s health. The landscaped recreation area and tea house were designed to provide guests with a pleasantly green stay. It is not only a healthy garden where they can relax and rejuvenate, but also a great place to chat with family or friends as they enjoy the beautiful surroundings.
