西双版纳，古代傣语为“勐巴拉娜西”，是“理想而神奇的乐土”之意。万达文华度假酒店就坐落于版纳山林的优美风景中，建筑融于自然，也成为了风景的一部分。建筑师充分发掘了西双版纳热带自然环境和少数民族风情文化的独特资源，融入傣族建筑的整体风格，让建筑在内外空间上的关照与交流延伸至精神的层面，呈现出了从属于自然环境的气质，提供了一个隐于自然风景、私密幽静的度假乐土。

As one of the fastest-growing tourist destinations in the Chinese province of Yunnan, this resort makes a great leap forward with the development of the Chinese luxury style resort.  It is in this wonderful enclave that OAD, Office for Architecture + Design, designed for the Dalian Wanda Group this luxurious resort hotel that is to be considered one the groups’ crown jewels. The resort, which had its opening on September of 2015, constitutes a remarkable endeavor that combines the technical and functional expertise that OAD has in this sector with a vernacular approach that is based on the deep study of local architecture.  A five star plus destination that contains 151 townhouse rooms and suits, Conference Center, Spa Center, Pagodas, pertaining amenities, and a sumptuous natural setting.  

　　自唐代开始，西双版纳便形成了中国南传上座部佛教的中心之地。佛寺佛塔遍布村寨，成为傣族人民生活的中心场所，更成为了他们心目中的圣殿。万达文华度假酒店是世界上首个以南传佛教佛塔为中心的顶级度假酒店，佛塔不仅是酒店群落的中心，也是地域独特文化内涵的中心。客人被引入群山密林中的文华酒店开始，就在体验设计铺陈的情节—西双版纳傣族特色的生活方式和宗教文化氛围，塑造出尊尚而隐密的气息与场景，使参与和融入现场的客人获得前所未有的异域情境体验。

 Wanda Vista Xishuangbanna is located in the most southern city in Yunnan province, one of the most emblematic regions of China, characterized for is natural wealth and cultural diversity. Hidden in the imposing mountains of the Ga-dong district northeast of Jinghong city and influenced by the unique architecture style of the local Dai ethnic minority that provides a sensibility that is both luxurious and romantic. “Xishuangbanna” means an ideal land of magic in the ancient language of Dai. Only after carefully studying and fully understanding its special elements and origins of local culture and architecture, did the architects take the traditional Dai architecture and planning as the inspiration to build a contemporary construction building and bridge it with its origins and surroundings.

　　依山而建的文华酒店如同掩映在雨林绿树中的隐秘王宫，围绕佛塔次第展开，处处尊贵典雅又亲近贴合自然，在这里客人可以同时体验鲜明的异域风情生活方式和浓厚的当地宗教文化氛围，配以酒店傣族特色的设施与顶级的服务，而获得无以伦比的度假感受。孔雀、瑞象、莲花都是傣族最具代表性的图腾标志和宗教符号，也是傣族民族精神的象征，酒店建筑装饰细节及各处的景墙、铺装，充分体现出这种独特的以自然生物与文化符号形成的主题元素。

 This relationship is particularly evident in the profile of the buildings, where its silhouette emerges from a luscious tropical landscape and traces its outline with a series of cascading layers that generate a clear dialog with the indigenous villages and mountains. This composition is further underlined at the entrance and public areas where beautiful gazing views and spectacular sunsetsare presented to the guests.

　　酒店建筑群体以版纳傣族传统村落为型，因地制宜，随山采形，结合当地传统文化，加以现代构成手法，体现出独具创意的民族的、自然的、文化的建筑空间之美。酒店整个公共区建筑以傣族高耸的屋顶为基本元素，大面积的石材基座加之大堂、大堂吧及全日餐厅的单体木构，组合成宜人尺度的院落空间。室内精细多层次的木结构，与室外现代精致的景观相呼应，将风景引入室内空间，并形成极佳的景观视野。到达区半透空柱廊与无边水池无缝融合，与中心花园形成轴线景观。既有面对未来，现代建筑形式的丰富多姿，又尊重历史，体现当地少数民族建筑的文脉相承。

The structures and roofs of the public area take inspiration from traditional architecture. Walls are made of wood and stone that when illuminated generate the feeling that is found throughout the local villages and religious buildings. The golden sensation that materials and lighting provide along with carefully designed landscapes generate a sense of belonging.  Carefully proportioned, the lobby and restaurant create a large open yard and the multiple wood levels on ceiling and floors generate a comfortable asymmetry that engage the mountainside and mountain views effortlessly.In order to deal with the ballroom’s large volume, the largest of the entire hotel, the designers decided on multiple planes rather that a single whole façade. Different levels and materials diminish the façade’s large scale.  This along with a rooftop garden and structures of smaller scale make the building much more approachable and utilitarian.  The small pavilions on the rooftop act as smaller meeting and conference rooms that not only enjoy beautiful views, they also enjoy the scale of the more local architecture providing open but also private working areas.

　　宴会厅建筑体量是整个酒店群中最大的部分。为使其尺度与其他建筑相近，通过改变建筑的部分高差，形成更丰富的立面层次，既增加了视觉上的良好体验，又充分符合整体建筑的节奏与韵律。二层会议室的单体木构与屋顶的民族元素变化，同公共区相呼应，再次演绎了西双版纳万达文华度假酒店的风格基调。

The creation of this “hidden temple” mountain resort was the result of combining an emperor style architecture, which is considered hierarchically more luxurious and spatially grander than local vernacular architecture, and the architecture style found in Dai style villages and temples. The high style detailing of imperial architecture blended with local traits generate the feeling found thru out local villages and religious sanctuaries with the stateliness of imperial design. This effort and the inclusion of elements such as pagodas and imagery reminiscent of religious buildings, makes for a serene and inspiring setting.The peacock is one of the patterns found throughout the resort but stands prominently on the entrances feature wall and the pools floor. It is the totem and sprit in the Dai culture and along with the tall roofs, stone base, and wooden structures the designers incorporate the unique style of Dai.

　　西双版纳万达文华度假酒店坐落于中国云南省最南端，西双版纳景洪市嘎栋区东北方向的群山密林处，2015年9月26日正式营业。整体建筑面积46,149平方米，别墅客房区域有151间豪华客房和套房，公共区另设独立会议中心、水疗中心、佛塔等。酒店力求凸显独特的地域文化特色，延续区域文脉，将当地傣族的生活方式与宗教文化元素融入设计，带给客人新奇独特的感受，结合优雅的环境与顶级的服务，营造出一个在热带雨林的生态环境中放松身心、净化心灵的场所，让客人获得无以伦比的度假体验。

This is how the design came to be, a reminiscence of old time buildings with modern luxury.  A Chinese sanctuary hidden in a mountain of Xishuangbanna.
