Rooms with a view show the height of grand ambition
Owner's dream comes true with hotel on cliff edge set amidst a stunning landscape, Yang Feiyue reports.
"We want our rooms to be of high standards, such as offering better thermal and sound proof than the garden-variety ones, because of the tough natural environment," Wang explains, adding that he and his friends also have their own requirements for the room design.
Afterwards, they had the rooms assembled in the city and prearranged the interior layout before having them sent to the depths of the mountains and hoisted to their final location.
To Wang's surprise, it took merely three months to finish all the moveable rooms, much quicker than if he had taken a traditional construction approach.
Moreover, the local soil was undisturbed, since all the rooms were placed on the original foundation of the original rural residence.
Every room is about 21 square meters, which is the maximum allowed for road transportation.
The hotel covers an area of 4,000 square meters, on the edge of the steep cliff, with all the independent rooms fanning out along the mountain curve.
All the arrangements were carefully calculated to ensure the best use of natural light and unhindered view of the landscape.
