There is an “eight-star” hotel in Beijing， which is located about 20 kilometers northwest of the Summer Palace. That place was called Daoxianghu Park in the 1980s. Now it is said that it is the back garden of Zhongguancun because there are many high-tech companies and technology parks around. Yes， I am talking about Beijing Daoxiang Lakeview Hotel.

Saying that Daoxiang Lakeview Hotel is an “eight-star” hotel， you will be dumbfounded： haha， there are only two hotels in the world that are called eight-star hotels： one is the Emirates Palace Hotel in Abu Dhabi， one is Dubai's Arab Tower， while Dubai's famous Chinese and foreign sailing hotels are also known as seven-star hotels. In addition， there are too many luxury hotels around the world， and some overnight accommodation costs are more than 300，000. You dare to say that Daoxiang Lakeview Hotel is an "eight-star" hotel. Is it ignorant or self-reliant？

I am a little bit safe， and listen to me slowly. In fact， according to the standard of star rating in China and internationally， the hotel star rating is only five stars. Daoxiang Lake View Hotel is just a five-star hotel at best. The "eight-star" hotel is a ridiculous slogan for the super-luxury and super-standard hotels. There is no hard and fast rule， and it is not given by professional institutions. Therefore， the "eight-star" that I am talking about can be my own standard and is the "eight-star" in my mind. In addition， in terms of specifications， it is indeed over-specified.

I said that it is an "eight-star" hotel. In addition to my subjective factors， there is still some truth and basis.

First of all， from the scale， the size of 800 acres， the scale is very small. Not to mention foreign countries， not to mention China， to say Beijing's international hotels， VIP buildings， and the Diaoyutai State Guesthouse， which are the most popular hotels in Beijing. These 3 hotels are basically the place where the country receives foreign guests and important guests. The degree of luxury is self-evident， but in terms of area， they are not comparable to the 800-acre land of the Daoxiang Lakeview Hotel. Even the Diaoyutai State Guesthouse， which has the waters of the pavilions and lakes， its water area is probably less than one-tenth of the lake area of ??the Daoxiang Lakeview Hotel. You can imagine how big the Daoxiang Lake in the hotel is.

Secondly， as far as I know， no matter how luxurious the hotel is， there is no hotel that can integrate museums， art galleries， zoos， children's parks and fighting grounds， and there is no hotel. I can take the lake and take the whole lake to my arms.

Then talk about the price that everyone cares most， such a hotel with a combination of leisure and entertainment， the highest price of a room is only a thousand yuan， the lowest price is only four or five hundred yuan， and those luxury and rich hotels In comparison， the price may not be one percent of them， which is completely acceptable to the general public. Moreover， a national hotel like Diaoyutai is not something that ordinary people can enjoy. Even if you get hundreds of thousands to spend a night， your identity may not be able to go in， and the Daoxianghu Hotel is enthusiastic in accepting everyone. Guests arriving.

On weekends， take your children， stay away from the hustle and bustle of the city， drive away from the smog， drive a car， or spend a few dollars on a subway to get to the lakeside hotel of the lake. Enjoy the view of the lotus lake， take the children to the zoo and play the children's playground. In the evening， I walked around the lake for a week， tired and tired， went to the hot spring castle to make a hot spring. Then return to the hotel and enjoy the luxury and attentive service that the hotel brings to you. In the morning， listening to the birds singing in the room， looking at the window full of lake scenery， full of pond clearing， what would be a pleasant and intoxicating holiday？

When you enter the hotel， you will see a walking map of Daoxiang Lakeview Hotel on the newspaper rack in the room or in the hotel lobby. The above section has a detailed description of each part of the hotel. The total distance around the hotel is about 4.26 kilometers a week. You will pass through Changshoulin， the wedding landscape and the Qianhe River embankment. You can enjoy the jungle， lotus pond， lake， colorful flower garden， as well as the farming garden， the parrot garden and the racecourse. .

The hotel is actually a large park， the lake is around the hotel， the hotel is surrounded by lakes， and the lakes in the hotel are criss-crossed. As a golden dividing line， a happy road divides the hotel into two parts. Daoxiang Lake runs through the Happiness Avenue from the northeast corner of the hotel to the southwest corner， running through the hotel. The VIP building is surrounded by the whole lake. The lake has three sides around the VIP building and one side is a dense forest. No matter which room in the VIP building， you can see the lake and the jungle. Of course， three-quarters of the rooms are It was built to the lake.

The VIP building is high and low， and the lower layer on the back is the 5，000-square-meter Haidian （North） Art Museum. The exhibition is “Chinese Painting · Ink and Washing Mountain”. The guests in twos and threes are pointing at the paintings. He Jiaying， Fan Di'an， Du Dazhao， Huo Chunyang， Lu Hao， Miao Zaixin， Li Xiang... are all the people in Chinese painting today. What new works do they have？ Can you describe what Mr. Xu Zhimo said in the past that "Beijing's spiritual children are all in Xishan？"

Close to the museum， it is a non-legacy museum with extremely rich content， such as paper-cutting， rubbing， clay figurines， Jing embroidery， cloisonne， lacquer carving， cheongsam， enamel painting， wire-bound book， kite， Wang Mazi knife and scissors， Juyuan bow and arrow... ... Each hall has a primary school student about 10 years old to explain to you， it is said that it is a small volunteer in the summer， and some are from the city center dozens of kilometers away. We took a photo with these lovely "little staff."

There is an arch bridge between the lobby and the guest room of the VIP building. Above the arch bridge is a transparent glass corridor. Under the bridge is a clear lake. The lake flows from a lotus pond in front of the bridge into a lotus pond behind the bridge. There is a boat specially equipped by the hotel， sitting on a boat and going from one end to the other along the lake.

The long glass corridor between the lobby of the VIP building and the guest room is an open-scale Kistler Museum. The various shapes and competitions are collected from both sides of the Kistler exhibitions across the country and are fascinating. Lingbi Stone， Agate Stone， Bloodstone， Malachite， Stalactite... Hundreds of psychic and singular stones have their own points of interest. Stay here and stay here， you can't help but sigh the wonders of nature， and even lament the profoundness of Chinese culture.

The guest room in the VIP building is a Chinese-style building community. The whole building was roundabout. When the hotel room was outside the window， it was a maolin bamboo， but it was a flowing water， trees， and gullies. It was a typical east-style garden pavilion. Out of the VIP building to the east， in turn is the hot spring castle， zoo， children's world， Damei Happy Island， agricultural garden， parrot garden， fight field and so on. In the easternmost part， there are three lotus ponds connected to each other. There is a lotus pavilion on the lotus pond. There is a winding path leading to the middle of the lotus pond. The outer edge of the lotus pond is the outer ring road of the hotel. The road is surrounded by the vast lake.

I don't know how many lotus ponds there are in the hotel. I have seen at least five or six. Each lotus pond has its own style and charm.

The summer lotus is the most stunning landscape in the hotel. The pool is connected with a pool of lotus flowers， no matter in the rain and the sun， the moonlight in the sun is full of heart. The lotus flower of Daoxiang Lake was formed by horticulturists using the original natural conditions and doing some just the right finishing. Between high and low elevations， sparse and dense gatherings， just right， every place is different， and every place is unique.

Under the clear sky， a small umbrella， standing on the shore of the lake， the lotus from the lake rushes from the shore to the shore， the wind blows from the distant lake， and the water in the lotus pond rises from the lake. Suddenly， there will be a cool feeling， cool and cool， and the soul will be stable， and the body and mind will be appropriate. As the soul fluctuates with the fragrance， the body and mind become comfortable and clean in the harmony of harmony.

The lotus pond in the rain has something to offer. Standing on the bridge of happiness， in the slanting drizzle， feel the dampness of the sky， listen to the sound of the rain and the lotus leaf， see the crystal clear water pearls danced lightly on the lotus leaf， painting outside the painting They are clean， clear， and peaceful. In this peace of mind and satisfaction， watching the rain and drinking the nectar of a lake， people are drunk like drinking.

Needless to say， the lotus pond under the moon. "Hollywood Moonlight"， that is the famous article left by Mr. Zhu Ziqing， but I dare say that the lotus pond in Daoxiang Lake is much more beautiful than the lotus pond in Zhu Ziqing's pen. On a moonlit night， standing on the lakeside， whether it is a full moon or a half moon， there is a charm. The moonlight sprinkled on the surface of the lake and sprinkled on the lotus leaf of the lake， showing a patchy shadow. When the wind is out， the reflection of the moon is washed in the water， dancing with the lotus flower of Nana， such as the beautiful and harmonious. The high and low， high and low， the lotus leaf， the posture of the lotus leaf， washes his green and round body with the moonlight， the graceful posture of the graceful， the heart can not help but tremble.

It was the summer of August， the Lakers Hotel held the fifth Lotus Festival， there was a row boat race， there was a taste of the food... Before the University of Cambridge and Peking University held a rowing competition here！ Lotus shadows sway， people dance， and add a lot of color to this piece of lotus pond！

On the other side of Happiness Avenue， there are two buildings， one is a lakeside building， one is a lake view building， and the lakeside building is facing a Fatong Avenue. The road is wide， the trees are tall and dense， and you can smell it. The smell of leaves and flowers. There are two large lawns on both sides of the road. There are countless wedding celebrations on the lawn， and there is a sweet love story. Lakeview Hotel also has a lot of lawns， lakes and mountains， grass and grass， affecting the hearts and minds of countless couples， it is said that the number of orders for wedding weddings has been accepted in recent years， far ahead of all hotels in Beijing， sometimes reaching 10 games a day.

On the lawn side， there is an antique pavilion with a length of about 20 meters. The plaque is written on the "Feilong Pavilion". The couplets on both sides are "to see the Mohai Tenglong Day， it is the time when the literary world starts from the phoenix." The couplet is a workmanship and grandiose. It is written by Mr. Yi Haiyun， the deputy chairman of the late Beijing Poetry Association and the former chairman of the Haidian Federation of Literary and Art Circles. The majestic Weibei calligraphy is a book written by the famous calligrapher and vice chairman of the Beijing Book Association， Mr. Zhang Shufan. When I walked into the pavilion， I saw a huge dragon with a shocking effect on one side. The whole body was black， and surrounded by hovering engravings engraved 56 lifelike dragons. This oyster is produced in Yi County， Hebei Province. It is 13.8 meters long， 3 meters wide and weighs 66 tons. It is known as the "most of China". Tracing back to its origins， it is said that the only candidate for the 2007 "Guardian of the Earth" recommended by the Chinese government to the United Nations Environment Program， and Mr. Shan Zhaoxiang， chairman of the Beijing Green Foundation， has devoted his life to public welfare and greening. In 2015， this The 95-year-old “Green Man”， on behalf of the Beijing Green Foundation， donated Long Hao to the Haidian District and Daoxiang Lakeview Hotel， which have a unique ecological environment in recent years. On the side of the dragon's owl， a pen with a length of about 3 meters and a thickness of about 20 centimeters is reclined. According to Mr. Wei Hanqing， the president of Zhongguancun Magazine and the former chairman of the Haidian District Literary Federation， the 2001 Summer Universiade was held in Beijing. In October of that year， China will soon join the World Trade Organization. The organizing committee has just been appointed by the UN. Mr. Zhang Shufan， Chairman of the Haidian District Book Association， awarded the "Akademmi Art Authority Award" by the organization， wrote the "Dragon" on the scene at the opening ceremony of the Universiade， symbolizing the Chinese nation's take-off. This pavilion， this 硯， this pen， this book， this association， there are so many stories and connotations， it is no wonder that this "Tenglong Pavilion" is known as the Dragon Stork Museum. The mountain is not high， there is a fairy name; the pavilion is not big， there is a dragon！

Right on the lawn， there is also a long irregular pool， called the glasses lake， or named after the glasses， because on the edge of the hotel， the lake is full of different lengths. Artemisia， when there are wild ducks and waterfowls， add a bit of wild fun to this glasses-like lake.

The lake view building is next to the lakeside building. It is under the Happiness Bridge and is surrounded by water on three sides. In May 2018， Daoxiang Lakeview Hotel was the main venue， and after hosting the “2018 （Beijing Haidian） Belgium Brussels International Wine Competition”， which was hailed as the “Oscar Award”， it was built as a wine. theme hotel. Part of the hotel became a wine museum， with 9，180 empty bottles and corks in the pavilion， as well as many physical pictures， which restored the grand scenes of more than 9000 wines from over 400 international judges at the time， forming a unique wine museum. . Unique design， unique wine mountain， everywhere is fashionable， elegant and esteemed.

Happiness Bridge is on the Avenue of Happiness. Because the avenue is blocked by the lake， only one can be built. This bridge can give way to the outer lake. After crossing the bridge， there are a row of cabins， and the wooden houses are all kinds of snacks， which can be regarded as a snack street in the hotel. In the evening， invite three or five friends to sit outside the log cabin in front of Daoxiang Lake， eat a few skewers， drink a few bottles of small wine， and watch the calm and sometimes sullen lakes in front of you， let the breeze blow， at this time you set Will sigh： the fairy life is not so ear.

The vast lake outside the lake， I do not know whether it is Daoxiang Lake or Green Lake， there is an island in the center of the lake， that is the legendary Maya Island. With the hotel's room card， you can go to the island to enjoy the tea. When it comes to Maya Island， I think of a past event. That was more than a decade ago， I drove to a few friends to drive to Daoxiang Lake. A friend pointed to a small island in the lake and said with pride： this is Maya Island， and our boss lives on it all the year round. I have been there twice， and my expression of envious eyes will make people laugh. Because Maya Island is in Beijing， it is a gathering place for high-end people. It is not only a place for leisure and entertainment， but also a symbol of status and status.

About one kilometer east of Maya Island is Shangzhuang on the bank of Cuihu Wetland. It is said that there is a cemetery， family home and family temple of Nalan Xingde， a famous poet in the Qing Dynasty， which was regarded as a "one person since the Northern Song Dynasty" by Wang Guowei. On the day of leaving the hotel， I and Xiaoyou， a friend of Wenyou， rushed to visit， and I was unable to find it. I went to the next day. Of course， in the west of the hotel， you can see the Fenghuangling area in the west， as well as the famous Dajue Temple， Longquan Temple， Beijia Garden， Balcony Mountain， and Fengfeng. You can only wait for the next time.

I stayed at the Lakeview Hotel for three days and was very reluctant to leave. Thinking about the food of several buffets and special restaurants， thinking about the wine of the wine shop， thinking about the bridge of happiness， thinking about the lotus pond， thinking about the twists and turns of the VIP building， thinking about the flowers， thinking about the occasional Sending a few quiet nights of humming sounds， thinking of the few light clouds， changing shapes， flying quietly， and flying quietly， like who is hiding and hiding... I want a lake in the moonlight night. I think of the faint， ruthless， mysterious Maya Island， and the remains of distant and distant stories..... That night， the clouds are light， the wind is light， the lotus， the moon. That night， I went back to the room， lying on a comfortable and soft bed， and made a dream...
