Mandarin Oriental Hotel Nanjing

Millennium-old historic city Nanjing, rich in profound Eastern elegance, has always been a favored location for luxury hotels. The highly anticipated Mandarin Oriental Hotel is now gracefully poised to bloom in Nanjing, occupying a prime location along the Qinhuai River. Drawing inspiration from the Ming Dynasty’s "Flower, Moon, Spring Breeze Sixteen Floors" and the state guesthouse "Chongyi Building," it creates a low-density garden-style architectural complex facing the Ming city wall by the river, echoing Nanjing’s historical imprint and distilling the refined elegance of ancient Jinling into the architectural texture. Abandoning excessive ornamentation, it captures the clear and elegant charm of Song Dynasty literature. Lines are as concise as verses, spaces leave blank like ink wash paintings. As light and shadow flow, the eaves outline the curve of time. Stone and wood collide, creating a dialogue between modernity and antiquity. A 270° panoramic view embraces the river, the sky garden invites the wind and moon of the four seasons. Every detail hides craftsmanship, brocade patterns subtly echo the "Dream of Liang Record," copper carvings recreate the cityscape of Jiankang, and contemporary art collections scatter like secret poetic lines.
