Ebook: Übernachten in China / Sleepover in China: Gästehäuser und Hotels / Guest Houses and Hotels

A new generation of architects

Many of the hotels and guesthouses featured in this book are in rural areas. They were built to improve people’s lives there through careful tourism or to create high-quality attractions capable of curbing the massive rural exodus. Some of the other buildings aim to upgrade neglected city neighbourhoods or to preserve historical building stock by giving it a new, meaningful lease of life.
