Hulu - Institutional Reviews

"Hulu" is a lakeside living art space carefully created by the famous painter Hu Chijun, built 20 years ago in the east of Conghua Liuxi Lake, about an hour and a half away from the downtown of Guangzhou. In the 90s, Hu Chijun, a professor at the Guangmei Oil Painting Department, had a utopian vision that allowed the lake to slowly take shape. The beauty of the lake lies in the harmonious symbiosis between architecture and nature, and the whole building is hidden in the mountains and forests by the lake according to local conditions, reflecting a kind of poetry with the flow of daylight in the four seasons.

The natural conditions of the lake are very superior, and on several rooftops of the lake, you can enjoy the beautiful scenery of Liuxi Lake. Along the small slope, guests can walk to the small pier by the lake, the natural clean swimming pool and fishing grounds, quite a sense of paradise. If you need to go kayaking, please make a reservation with the coach in advance, and a certain number of people will be required to join the group.

The construction of Hulu began in 1996 and has gone through 20 years of construction in three phases. In May 2017, Hulu was closed for several months for renovation, and reopened to the public on National Day in 2017. Some repairs are still underway.

The biggest feature of the lake is that it is in harmony with the natural environment, the building is built according to the natural topography, scattered, the original tree vegetation is retained to the greatest extent during the construction, and some of the trees are left in the building, becoming a different landscape. Watching the sunset and stars at the lake is a beautiful experience and is also loved by photography enthusiasts. On the rooftop of Lake Wang, you can enjoy the open-air hot springs and look up at the starry sky.

The layout of the rooms varies according to the layout of each room, and the overall tone is warm and tranquil, full of mood and meaning. There are many art installations or works scattered in all corners of the lake, such as a statue standing on the shallows of the lake, depending on the seasonal water level of the lake, sometimes standing proudly on the embankment, sometimes submerged in the water, the four seasons are uncertain, and the artistic conception is far-reaching. However, for the owner's artworks and private collections, guests should try to communicate with the owner before contacting.

The lake has all the necessary living facilities, but due to its remote location and the owner's intentional creation of a slow living space, the infrastructure here is simple and simple. Guests with high requirements for hardware and services may feel rudimentary. To get a meal, you'll need to drive a few kilometers to a nearby farm.

If you are interested in booking Hulu, it is currently recommended to call or communicate with the B&B's customer service directly through the official account "Hulu". Come and experience the natural lifestyle of Hulu, ranging from 600~800 yuan per capita. Finally, Hulu is a secret place that cannot be found on the map and does not have an exact address, so you can consult the specific route to the mountain after booking.
