Tranquil Boat Hotels

Clean the Sky - Positive Eco Trends & Breakthroughs

The Fuchun Boat Rooms Offer a Unique Travel Experience

— June 11, 2018 — World
Set on a rural lakeside in China, the Fuchun Boat Rooms were inspired by the water tribes of the Ming dynasty to create a tranquil and one-of-a-kind travel option for guests looking to connect with nature.

The hut-like cabins are situated directly on the shoreline, giving a floating appearance over the water similar to a boat. Each room is designed to evoke and embrace the ancient culture of traditional boat-living with an arched timber shape. The interiors offer a space that is completely lined with warm wood planks, an oversized skylight above the bed and a fully glazed wall offering views of the water.

The large glass sliding doors on each of the Fuchun Boat Rooms lead out onto a terrace that looks out onto the beautiful aquatic landscape.
