friendshiphotel is a little bit special. most of the high starts hotels are luxury from its appearances, large, high, shining with the big windows or any other decorations. friendship hotel looks old, not old enough, but its grey color is not fresh, and heading a ancient style roof. seeing it from a farer place, it is just looks as a government serioius build.and it is not a high building at all.
when you step near, you would find it is wide, step in the yard, yes, very wide. a big squar ground is in front of the main building, with plants. walking through the road, and paths, the back of the main building is just getting in eyes little by little. you may be confused if it is a conner of woods. so many different green colors rush into ur eyes, and cannot see the woods as a whole.
in summer, you could not find a better cool place in beijing except the parks and tour places. trees here are high or low with different shapes, they covers half of the sky, and greep or any other soft plants dancing on the small paths and cover another part of sky. sunshine passes through the leaves paints the ground with small silver stars.
it is just wonderful!
i think this hotel belongs to the government before, not sure now, but lots of local governers whom are coming beijing for general party meetings.
2 big universities are very nearby, one is just beside a wall. 3 department stores around, may no more then 15 minuts by feet.
service, of course, same as other high level hotels.
trafic, it is near the Yi He Yuan, the last chinese danesty's gardern, and also some other famous places. but not near the CBD.
