Inner Mongolia’s desert regions, beyond the commonly known barren dunes, yurts, and nomadic tribes, now also feature fantastical sights reminiscent of mirages. The ultra-large luxury landscape resort hotel “Xiangshawan Lotus Hotel,” which has amazed many in the international media, is a green sanctuary centered around Buddhist culture and is the world’s only green building constructed without bricks, tiles, sand, stones, cement, or steel bars.

Dubbed a seven-star hotel by many professionals, the Xiangshawan Lotus Hotel is a stunning new addition to China’s hospitality scene. Endless yellow sands, dotted with camels, create a cinematic sci-fi atmosphere whether at sunrise, sunset, or under the starry night sky.
