Beijing's GREEN T. HOUSE Living Wins Two Prestigious AsiaSpa Awards
The imperial-style "lifestyle pavilion' on the outskirts of Beijing was recognised for its new Bath House Residence inspired by a Tang dynasty emperor's bath house, complete with a sumptuous onsen-style rooftop hot tub for indulgent bathing.

"The Bath House Residence expresses through nature's elegance the interaction between human beings' understanding of our outside environment and of our inner selves. It is designed to ensure that guests take time out to recharge, since the most beautiful journey to be had is the one of our inner travels, where the journey itself is its own reward," says JinR of her philosophy in creating this tranquil yet surprising space.
Pampering, wellness and bathing rituals are complemented by exotic overnight 'Signature Living Experiences' immersing guests in "a world of body, mind and soul, senses and sensuality".

Bath house therapies are twinned with Chinese music and art, indulgence, ancient Chinese wisdom and contemporary aesthetics.
The residence sleeps couples in traditional, curtained four-poster "emperor's beds" as well as accommodating small groups for 'high end slumber parties' in loft bedrooms.

GREEN T. HOUSE Living pavilion immerses guests in Chinese culture and cuisine by uniquely combining wellness with a teahouse, restaurant, gallery, cultural events space and inspiring meeting place.

Dining features signature "New China T-cuisine", blending fresh and natural ingredients with time-honored indigenous cooking techniques from across the regions of China.

It is also renowned for chic dining, cutting-edge music performances, art exhibits, tea presentations and ceremonies, and creative events – attracting an eclectic mix of artists, celebrities and prominent local and international guests.

Launched in 2005 by AsiaSpa magazine the AsiaSpa Awards are the industry's most anticipated annual event recognizing exceptional spas in Asia. The awards ceremony was on November 12 at Hong Kong's Armani Bar.
