着狗年的临近，让我们回顾一下中国国家旅游局在鸡年取 得的所有成就。 “中澳旅游年”期间举办了许多盛大的活 动，并在国际上大获成功，如“熊猫跑澳洲”大篷车巡游活动，行 程覆盖整个澳大利亚，向澳大利亚民众宣传中国旅游和“中澳旅游 年”。1,000余名澳大利亚游客齐聚古都西安，接受仿唐入城仪式盛 典的欢迎。这一年，无论是在中国还是澳大利亚，都发生了许多大 事，促进了两国之间的关系和旅游业的发展。我们预计两国之间的 游客人数将在2018年继续上升，让我们共同期待一个繁荣的狗年。

s we welcome the Year of the Dog, we look back at all the accomplishments that the Year of the Rooster brought the China National Tourist Office. The China Australia Year of Tourism was an international success that saw many grand events takes place, like the Panda Explorer vans, which covered the whole of Australia travelling and educating locals. We also saw 1,000 Australians travel back in time to ancient Xi’an where they were greeted in the old capital by a traditional Tang-style welcoming ceremony. There were many different events that took place throughout the year, both in China and Australia, to continue to grow the relationship and promote tourism between both countries. With the number of travellers between China and Australia expected to rise in 2018, we look forward to a prosperous Year of the Dog!

ave you ever visited a UNESCO World Heritage site where its history is still being written? Some of Fujian’s famous tulou are half a century old and still house descendants of the families who first built them. You’ll find these unique earthen buildings off the beaten track, about three-and-a-half hours’ drive out of the province’s capital island-city, Xiamen. Discover the architectural feat that is the tulou and let the local Hakka people invite you into their home to taste traditional local delicacies.

Another city worth visiting that boasts UNESCO World Heritage Sites is Lijiang. All the city’s ancient architecture has been carefully preserved, which means luxury hotel offerings have had to embrace their surroundings. Discover all that and more in this issue of Bailu.

Quacking good time

Set in Sydney’s World Square, celebrity chefs have started serving up duck in a whole new way We’re used to our duck roasted, crispy and served with pancakes, but try slapping it on a burger with all the trimmings and you’ve got a world-first idea that’s sure to draw the crowds. The newly opened Duck In Duck Out at Sydney’s World Square is the brain child of restaurateurs Phil Davenport and celebrity chef Manu Feildel, who were both looking to step away from fine dining and introduce Sydneysiders to a whole new way of eating duck.

“We took our time with this one. We wanted to nail our concept and not rush things. What we noticed was that nearly every culture loves duck and serves it up in their own way, and that’s what all of our menu represents,” says Phil Davenport.

The space is small, but you can’t miss the bright neon lights welcoming you. Whether you’re strolling by in World Square or know exactly what you’re looking for, the lights, design and menu are hard to go past. The Quack Daddy is the staple burger, a french confit duck leg with pickles and harissa aioli, but you’ll be able to sample everything from duck hot dogs to crispy duck bao.

“We knew people love duck and being right near China Town means we’ve got a whole range of cultures trying a little bit of everything off the menu. We’ve nailed our main favourites, but everyday we are pitching new ideas of what we can do with duck, and we haven’t run out yet,” says Feildel. worldsquare.com.au

在悉尼的世界广场（WORLD SQUARE），名厨们开始以全 新的方式制作鸭肉。 我们已经习惯了香酥的烤鸭配荷叶饼的 吃法，但可以尝试一下配菜多多的鸭肉 汉堡。这一想法可谓开历史之先河，肯定 会令人趋之若骛。在悉尼世界广场新开 业的DUCK IN DUCK OUT是餐厅老板菲 尔·达文波特（PHIL DAVENPORT）和名 厨马努·费德尔（MANU FEILDEL）的智 慧结晶，他们都想抛开精致餐饮，向悉 尼人介绍一种全新的吃鸭方式。 “我们在这上面花了好多时间，想要把 这一概念具体化，不能仓促行事。我们 注意到几乎每种文化的人都喜欢吃鸭肉， 并有自己的制作方式，这也是我们的菜 单中所体现的。”菲尔说道。 这里空间虽小，但您不会错过那些明 亮的霓虹灯，仿佛在欢迎您的大驾光临。 无论是在世界广场闲逛，还是确切地知 道自己的目的地，这家餐厅的灯光、设计 和菜单都很难让人视而不见。QUACK DADDY以汉堡为主料，搭配法式油封鸭 腿、酸菜和哈里萨辣酱。当然您还可以 在这里品尝到鸭肉热狗和香酥鸭堡等。 “我们餐厅与唐人街很近，这意味着我 们的顾客有着各种不同的文化背景，他 们希望尝试一些非传统作法的食品。虽 然我们已经有了固定的招牌食品，每天 仍在尝试制作鸭肉的新方法，并且乐此 不疲，”菲尔说道。

狗年说狗

2018

年农历春节后就是狗年 了，狗在十二生肖中居第 十一 位，与十二 地支配 属为“戌”，因而十二时辰中晚上七点至九点 为“戌”时，又称“狗”时，也是狗比较兴奋和 活跃的时间。 在所有的生肖里，狗可能是和人们是最亲 近的动物了，狗在人们的生活中几乎是一个不 可缺少的成员。狗除了作为重要的家庭宠物 外，在其它的许多方面，如军事、缉私、侦探、 守猎等，都是人类的好帮手，在人类的社会生 活中具有非常重要的作用。 根 据多方面的研 究，全 世界 的狗 都 来源 于 一万五千年 前生 活 在 东 亚 地 区的 一 种 野 狼，其中一部分被人类圈养，逐渐地脱离了野 狼 群 体 演 变 成 为 狗 。于 是，狗 与 狼 就 逐 步 分 道 扬 镳 ，各 走 各 的 路，狗 就 成 了人 类 的 52

朋 友。据 说 在 通 人 意 方 面，狗比 黑 猩 猩 还 要 聪明。 狗不仅和人有非常紧密的关系，而且还对人 有很大的影响。中国自古有“忠、孝、节、义”的 说法，这四个字所对应的四个动物分别是“马、 羊、虎、狗”。马为主人赴汤蹈火在所不惜是为 忠、小羊双膝下跪求母乳则为孝、虎丧配偶不 求新欢誉为节、狗为主人情重毕生即为义。忠 孝节义四动物是中国传统教育中的学习榜样。 其中尤其是狗，对人的影响最大。所以关于狗 的故事也最多。例如“义犬救主”、 “义犬复仇” 等等。 在大多数老百姓家里，狗都是作为宠物来对 待的，这些都属于个人的喜好，但是其中也有社 会的影响。例如在中国，70年代以前很长的一 段时间里，城里人能够在家中养狗是一种社会 地位的象征，一般市民是没有条 件养狗的，很

难设想在三层阁或者亭子间里养只狗。 如今，时代不同了，城里人养狗的越来越多， 按理说，条件好了养条狗也没有什么，个人喜好 而已。其实不然，狗的生活不仅越来越好，越 来越超出了一般人的生活标准，狗主人的身 份也随着狗的品种而高涨。有钱人以拥 有名狗为荣耀，竞相用高价购买名狗比 阔。有一种西藏狗叫藏獒，威大凶猛， 形如藏驴，吠声如狮。世界上的五大 猛 犬：马士提 夫犬、大丹犬、钮伯 利顿犬、圣伯大犬、钮芬兰犬以及 德国的牧羊犬都有藏獒的血统。 因此这种狗就非常名贵，身家超 过万元人民币，最贵的竟然达 35万元。 不仅中国是这样，澳大利亚 也 差不多。有统计表示，澳 大 利亚人在以狗为主的宠物身上 一年的花费大 约为2 7亿澳 元， 这个 数目远 远 超 出 澳 大 利亚 政 府 2 0 多 亿澳 元的对外 援助 款 项 。在 不 少 澳 人 抱 怨 没 有 足够的钱 购买生活必需品， 街头住宿者越来越多的同时，另 一些澳人则在狗身上一掷千金：打 疫苗、做绝育、买保险，五花八门的 宠物食品都已经是小儿科了。澳大利 亚除了有宠物公墓，还有专门为宠物设 计的钻石珠宝，一条镶嵌钻石的心型金 项链价值近千澳元，狗爱吃的干猪耳每公 斤超过120澳元，是人吃的最好牛排的10倍。 让人困惑的是：狗一方面受到人们如此的宠 爱，另一方面又不断地被人们羞辱和责备，甚 至被骂个狗血喷头。生活中的许多尖刻恶毒的 骂人话语都与狗联系在一起：狗腿子，狗杂种， 狗头军师，狼心 狗肺，狐群 狗党，桀犬吠尧等 等，数不胜数。狗和人这两方面的主动性主要 在人，问题是出在人 这一面。究其原因，麻烦 就是由于狗的“义”字上，狗只对其主人讲义气， 并不管主人是好人还是坏人，即所谓的狗仗人 势，主人命令它做什么就做什么，主人说它有义 气，可是对立面当然就要破口大骂了，这就是狗 的悲哀所在。 中国人 是 这 样，西方人 又 怎么样 呢？就 说 英语吧，英语中有不少骂人的话也都和狗联系 在一起的，其中还有一些是非常苛刻的。表面 上看，许多西人对狗宠爱得比自己的子女还要 亲，但是西方的狗比中国的还要倒霉，例如：A DIRTY DOG 下流坯，YELLOW DOG 卑鄙小 人，LEAD TO A DOG’S LIFE 过穷困潦倒的生 活等等，都是把狗推出来为人替罪的。看来，无 论是东方的狗还是西方的狗，它们都避免不了 比拿来调侃一番的命运，这可能是因为全世界 的狗都是同一祖先的缘故吧。 总体来说，狗狗毕竟是人类最亲密的伙伴， 与人类有着不可分割的紧密联系。狗年将至，祝 大家：腊酒谢金鸡唱遍神州大地，春风催吉犬健 步五岳高峰。狗年行好运。

here is no shortage of UNESCO World Heritage sites in China.

You’re actually spoilt for choice. In total, there are 52 of them, second most in the world and only one short of first-placed Italy.

If you’re making a trip to China, it’s more than likely you’ll be ticking some sites off your bucket list – the Great Wall, Forbidden City, Terracotta Warriors, Temple of Heaven. The only downside is that many of these more popular sites are packed with tens of thousands of tourists a day, and you can only access certain sections to ensure the attractions remain well-preserved. So the best way to witness some of the world’s oldest monuments and China’s rich history is to head off the beaten track. Specifically, about three-and-a-half hours out of the island city of Xiamen, where you’ll find ancient Fujian Tulou: one of the very few live UNESCO World Heritage sites that locals still call home.

Tulou directly translates to earthen (tu) and building (lou), and that’s often how tourists refer to them.

There’s 20,000 of them in Fujian, so choosing which to visit is tricky. We opted for the most famous one in Gaobei Village. To get to the tulou it’s a long and winding journey deep into Fujian’s richly green and mountainous province, to reach Yongding county.

Here, the tulou are the only visible buildings among kilometres of dense pomelo and bamboo trees and rice, tea and tobacco plantations. The doughnut-like structures stand-out, but not like a skyscraper in the middle of a forest would. They’re not misplaced.

Each tulou looks like it belongs in the midst of wild nature. The reason for this is that they’re sculpted and made from the earth around them.

Sophie, our guide for the day, leads us to the largest tulou in the Gaobei Tulou Cluster, which was built in 1709. “We call this one the ‘King of the Tulou’,” says Sophie, but its official name is Chingqilou. “This one probably took about 50 years to build. All of the materials used to come from the earth. The walls are made of natural clay, rocks, pieces of wood, branches and, some say, sticky rice was also used. And it was all done without any machinery.”

来都属于这片野生自然环境一样。对此一 个很好的解释就是这些土楼都是由其周 边的泥土建造而成的。 我们当天的导游苏菲（Sophie）带领 我们来到了高陂土楼群中最大的一座土 楼，这座土楼建于1709年。 “我们把这座 土楼称作‘土楼之王’，”索菲说道， “但它 的官方名称是承启楼，用了大概50年的时 间才最终建造而成。”所有的材料都来自 泥土。土楼的墙壁采用天然粘土、岩石、 木材 和 树 枝，有些 人说 其中还 有糯米。 这一切都是没有任何机械装置的情况下完 成的。 承启楼是一座四层高的楼，直径达62.6 米，即使以今天的标准来看，也是建筑史 上的一个杰作。土楼不仅生态环保，其建 造也是出于防御的考虑。地上头两层没有 窗户，外圈墙的厚度达到1.6米，从外面几 乎是牢不可破的。唯一的办法是从三个大 门之一进入，而这些大门为了防范当地的 > 土匪通常都是关闭的。 57

“You can truly appreciate the perfect symmetry of each of the inner rings and the locals’ way of life” The Chingqilou tulou is four storeys tall, measures 62.6 metres in diameter, and is an architectural feat even by today’s standards. Not only is it ecological, but it was also built with defensive purposes in mind.

There are no windows on the first two floors, and the outer ring wall is 1.6 metres thick. The building is pretty much impenetrable from the outside. The only way in is from one of the three gates, which would normally stay shut for protection from local bandits.

Hold the ring

The Hakka people were the first to build tulou clusters.

“There were five big migrations in China’s history,” Sophie tell us. “Many northern Chinese came south to Fujian’s mountainous region during the last migration.

To the local southern Chinese, these people are known as guests to the region. The word for guests is Hakka, which is why they’re called Hakka people.”

As a community, the Hakka people created their own habitat by creating houses that were large enough to fit over 600 people and also sustain their living through nature. Initially, tulou were square-shaped, but were soon replaced with the more prominent round tulou because corners are considered bad feng shui.

“Over the years I have seen many different shapes and sizes,” says Sophie, who has been through so many tulou she’s lost count. “I’ve been in one where the centre courtyard was as big as a football field, but the more common ones are round.”

Inside the giant, outer ring of every tulou, you’ll find inner rings. In Chingqilou tulou, there are three inner rings. The centre of all the rings is where chickens and other animals are kept and bred. There is also an ancestral hall where occupants of the tulou go to pray.

The second ring is a community library, the third the family living/dining rooms, and the fourth (outer) ring are where families live. The kitchen is found on the ground floor. Some couple of hundred years ago there was only one well that serviced the whole tulou.

But in 2017, occupants at Chingqilou have the luxury of having a one-metre-deep mini-well in their own kitchens. The second floor is used for storage of wood, while the third and fourth are bedrooms.

环楼 客家人最早开始建造土楼群。 “中国历史 上有五次大规模的人口迁移，”苏菲告诉 我们。 “在最近一次人口迁徙期间，许多北 方人来到福建山区。对于当地的南方人来 说，这些人被称为这里的客人。而Hakka 就是客人的意思，这就是为什么他们被称 为客家人。” 这些客家人在一起建造了足以容纳600 多人的大房子，形成了他们自己的栖息地， 并向大自然索取生活所需的一切。最初， 土楼是方形的，但很快就被更突出的圆形 土楼所代替，因为方形土楼的角的风水不 好。 “多年来，我见过许多不同的形状和大 小的土楼，”苏菲说，她见过的土楼数也 数不清。 “我去过一座土楼，那里的院子和 足球场一样大，但更常见的是圆形的。” 在每个土楼巨大的外环楼里还会有内 环楼。在承启楼，内环楼共有三层。所有 环楼的中心是饲养鸡和其他动物的地方。 土楼里还有一个祠堂，是土楼居民祭祀的 地方。第二个内环楼是一个社区图书馆， 第三则是客厅/餐厅，而第四个（外环楼） 则是居民居住的地方。厨房在一楼。几百 年前，这里只有一眼井，整个土楼的居民 都从这里打水。但在2017年，居住在承启 楼的居民每家的厨房都有了一个1米深的 59

“所有的材料都来自泥土。 土楼的墙壁采用天然粘土、 岩石、木材和树枝，有些人 说其中还有糯米 ”

The amount of people living in each tulou varies.

Back in Chingqilou’s prime there were about 600 people living here, all descendants of the Jiang family.

Today, 300 people occupy the rings.

Meet the locals

While a tulou was once self-sufficient in growing fruit and vegetable in surrounding farmland and breeding chickens for food, today tourism is the residents’ main source of income. You can buy dried local persimmons, mushrooms, pork, radish, sweet potato, as well as dried tea and tobacco leaves. There are also handmade wooden souvenirs, like key rings, for sale.

Because you’re still visiting someone’s home, the top floors are not open to the public. But if you’re lucky, a resident will offer to give you a full tour of their place, for RMB 10 – a small price to pay for the view you get from the fourth floor. It’s from here you can truly appreciate the perfect symmetry of each of the inner rings and also get a look at the locals’ way of life.

After the grand tour of Chingqilou, Sophie takes us to her favourite restaurant in the county. Only a 10-minute drive away, lunch is served at Mr Jung’s house, where he has lived his whole life, as did his parents and grandparents. His house is a miniature tulou. It is round, but doesn’t have any inner rings.

Instead, it has one large courtyard where cats and chickens roam freely. Mr Jung’s daughter is in the kitchen, which is surprisingly equipped with mod-cons like a stove and sink.

“This is not a UNESCO-protected site,” Sophie explains. “Mr Jung runs a small hotel from here and has even renovated some of the rooms so that they have their own showers and bathrooms to cater to Western guests.”

Lunch is chicken with green almond and chilli and dry bamboo shoot cooked with pork, which Sophie tells us is a local delicacy. While the flavours are rich and spicy, it does make you feel slightly guilty for the fate of the chickens that are clucking at your feet. And that’s the beauty of visiting China’s lesser-known sites: there are no queues or pushing your way through large groups of people. The only nudging required is to the chickens, to ensure they don’t peck at your feet while you’re eating in one of the tulou.

在参观完宏伟的承启楼后，苏菲带我们到了 县里她最喜欢的一家餐馆。短短的10分钟车程 后，我们就到了郑先生的家里享用美味的午餐。 郑先生和他的父母以及祖父母都在这里住了一 辈子。郑先生的家就是一个小型的土楼，也是圆 形的，但没有内环。取而代之的是一个大大的庭 院，猫和鸡自由地在那里漫步。郑先生的女儿在 厨房里忙活着，令人吃惊的是，厨房里竟然配备 火炉和水槽等现代化的生活设施。 “这 里不是 联 合国 教 科文 组 织 遗 产 保 护 地，”苏菲解释说。 “郑先生在这里开了一家小 旅馆，甚至还把一些房间翻新了一下，添加了浴 室和洗手间，以此来迎合西方客人的需求。” 午餐有青杏辣子鸡和猪肉笋干，苏菲告诉我 们这是当地的美味。这些菜口感浓郁而且偏辣， 一边吃的时候对脚下咯咯叫的小鸡感到有点内 疚。这就是参观中国鲜为人知的景点的美好所 在，不用排队，也不用在人群中挤来挤去。您需 要的只是在吃饭时把身边的小鸡推开，以免它 们在您吃饭的时候啄您的脚。

“SOUNDS OF KOOK ABURRAS FILTER DOWN FROM THE TREES OVERLOOKING YOUR PRIVATE PLUNGE POOL” HOT TIPS

Spicers Sangoma’s general manager Sam Giles shares his top tips on the Blue Mountains

Taking its name from the Zulu word for healing, Sangoma has a soft South African touch in the way of heavy leather armchairs, delicate chandeliers, fur throws and antlers, that embodies the relaxed luxury of a safari lodge. But it’s the Australian bush you’ll see through floor-toceiling glass walls, open-air terraces, and uncurtained windows. The sounds of local kookaburras filter down from the trees overlooking your private plunge pool in the two-storey Chief’s Suite. You might also hear the rustle of wallabies in the bush outside what must be one of the most glamorous tent suites, and on the walk to the main lodge, the site of meals, drinks and roaring fireplaces, other local wildlife will catch your eye.

行修缮。为了确保8间套房均能够提供与众 不同的体验，Spicers在这里投入了大量时 间。 “Sangoma”一词在祖鲁语中为“康复” 之意，因此这座酒店的陈设布置带有少许南 非风情：真皮扶手椅、枝型吊灯、毛皮盖毯以 及鹿角，均体现了这座荒野度假酒店的休闲 式奢华，并且总能将看到澳大利亚丛林的优 美景色。当地的笑翠鸟会在树上发出悦耳的 啁啾声，树下就是配有私人冷水池的两层酋 长套房。您可能还会听到小袋鼠在外边丛林 中发出的沙沙声，这是帐篷套房的亮点之一。 在步行前往酒店主楼的路上，可以在熊熊燃 烧的壁炉边上享用各色餐饮，还能看到其他 当地的野生动物。

As much of the kitchen larder as possible is stocked with produce from local farmers, so that guests get a taste of Australia’s bountiful harvest. Although a set menu, chefs will do everything they can to cater to guests’ tastes, and often for Chinese guests will serve dishes all at once, more family-style, rather than degustation.

Vito Romeo was already destined to make his mark in Sichuan at four years old when he surprised his relatives with his enjoyment of fiery Calabrian chilli sausage in the south of Italy. Romeo, The Ritz-Carlton Chengdu’s general manager, has an impeccable food and beverage pedigree, having shifted to hotel management after stints at some of the top restaurants in Monaco under world-famous chefs. “I first tasted Sichuan pepper matched with foie gras by [Michelinstarred chef] Paul Bocuse,” recalls Romeo. “Wow – what a combination! I’ll never forget that taste.”

However, it is European fine dining that Vito has brought to Chengdu along with the Ritz-Carlton’s German executive chef Steffen Gube. “Locals are really focused on their food,” says Romeo. “Western food is new to many people in Sichuan and young people in particular are interested to try it.”

At Dining Room, the Ritz-Carlton’s Western restaurant, fresh ingredients are at the forefront and presentation is paramount. The menu plays to Sichuan’s culture of sharing with a Mediterranean mezze platter that combines Italian and Middle Eastern influences with dishes such as beef carpaccio, falafel and dips served with plenty of freshly baked bread. The stars of the show are a 1kg Australian Black Angus tomahawk tagliata steak and an immense seafood platter for the crustacean connoisseur with a whole Boston Lobster as its centerpiece. Dessert also has a theatrical flourish with Crepes Suzette prepared at the table with plenty of flaming Cognac and Grand Marnier liquor.

Ritz-Carlton Chengdu also has a sister bar to Ritz-Carlton Pudong’s Flair, which, like its Shanghai counterpart, has a wide selection of whiskies, Cognacs, wine, cigars and an expansive terrace. The bar’s signature cocktail is their Sichuan Gin & Tonic, which uses Aviation gin infused with a variety of spices more commonly found in a bubbling hot pot, including Vito Romeo’s favourite, the Sichuan peppercorn. >

“THIS ISN’T FINE DINING. HOT POT IS FREESTYLE AND ANYTHING GOES”

72

CHENGDU

成都群光君悦酒店

GRAND HYATT CHENGDU

Legend has it that the first hot pot originated during China’s Jin dynasty (1115 AD to 1234 AD). Introduced by Genghis Khan’s soldiers, these all-conquering warriors on horseback travelled light, with their metal helmets and shields doubling as cooking vessels. Through the centuries, huo guo evolved into China’s most popular communal dining experience.

Although there are countless regional varieties, the basic formula is the same – diners cook their own food in a simmering pot of broth. The dominant hot pot in China today is the spicy version with a bubbling broth of oil and beef tallow, founded by Chongqing dock workers on the banks of the Yangtze River.

At #8 restaurant at Grand Hyatt Chengdu, discerning diners can choose from eight different broths, from spicy ones loaded with potent red chillies and mouth-numbing Sichuan peppercorns to a delicate Cantonese abalone and seafood broth.

“Chengdu is the hot pot city,” declares Felix Lee, executive chef at #8, in a bold statement sure to raise some eyebrows with natives of Chongqing. Nevertheless, hot pot is indeed wildly popular in Chengdu, which had the honour of being named Asia’s first UNESCO “City of Gastronomy” seven years ago. “There are more than 600 hot pot restaurants in this district alone,” Lee says.

One thing that sets #8 apart from other hot pot restaurants is that they do not recycle their spicy beef tallow broth, a widely practised act of frugality that also enhances flavour. Instead, Chef Lee boils and simmers his stock over three days.

Luxury ingredients are the order of the day at #8 and diners can peruse and select many of them at the market-style entrance to the restaurant. Seafood is hugely popular at #8, and to our pleasant surprise ingredients like Maine lobster, Dalian abalone and Qingdao oysters retain their flavour exceptionally well even when cooked in Chef Lee’s spiciest broth. Other indulgent ingredients include wafer-thin slices of Australian Wagyu steak and Alaskan snow crab.

“We give some advice to diners about ingredients,” Lee says. “You really only need to cook the Wagyu for two seconds, but this isn’t fine dining.

Hot pot is freestyle and anything goes.” >

传说火锅起源于中国金朝（公元1115年至公 元1234年）。火锅由成吉思汗的士兵们发明， 这些在马背上战无不胜的勇士们需要轻装 上阵，他们将金属头盔和盾牌用作烹饪工具。 经过几个世纪的发展，火锅演变为中国最为 流行的共享美食体验。尽管每个地区各有特 色，但火锅的基本配方却大致相同—— 就餐 者在徐徐沸腾的汤锅中翻煮自己的食材。目 前中国最流行的火锅是重庆长江两岸的码 头工人们发明的，使用的是牛油麻辣锅底。 在成都群光君悦酒店的8号餐厅，挑剔 的就餐者可以在8种不同的锅底中做出选 择，从满是辛辣的红辣椒和让人嘴巴发麻 的四川胡椒的麻辣锅底到精致的粤菜鲍鱼 和海鲜锅底，应有尽有。 “成都是火锅之城，”8号餐厅的行政主 厨李智伟（Felix Lee）说道，如此大胆的表 述一定会引起重庆本地人的质疑。但不管怎 样，火锅确实在成都广为流行，7年前成都很 荣幸被联合国教科文组织评为亚洲第一个 “美食之城”。 “仅在这里就有超过600间火锅 店，”李主厨说道。 让8号餐厅从其他火锅店中脱颖而出的 是他们不会循环使用牛油麻辣锅底，虽然循 环使用锅底是一种普遍做法，既可以节约， 又可以增强味道。相反，李主厨每隔3天便会 重新熬制锅底。 8号餐厅可以为就餐者提供奢华的食材， 就餐者在进入餐厅之时便可在“集市”中挑 选大多数食材。海鲜在8号餐厅非常受欢迎， 缅因州龙虾、大连鲍鱼和青岛牡蛎等食材在 李主厨的麻辣锅底中也能非常好地保留了它 们的风味。其他丰盛的食材包括切成小薄 圆片的澳大利亚和牛肉以及阿拉斯加雪蟹。 “我们会为就餐者提供一些有关食材的建议，” 李主厨说道。 “和牛肉只需要煮2秒钟，但这 并不是精致高级餐饮体验。火锅就是随心所 欲、自由发挥。” >

SIX SENSES QING CHENG MOUNTAIN

In an industry where imported ingredients are sought after and celebrated, Six Senses Qing Cheng Mountain, located 60km from central Chengdu at the base of the UNESCO World Heritage site, is breaking the mould. “Everything on our table is local: either from our garden or from a maximum of 3km away,” says executive chef Ozgur Bozgurt. Fresh and delicate flavours are a signature of Chef Bozgurt’s style at the spa and resort’s Farm2Fork restaurant. His style is subtly influenced by the Turkish cuisine of his homeland with adjustments catered to local tastes. “I’d prefer goats cheese instead of yoghurt,” he says of a delicious dish of roasted fig with local honeycomb with homemade yoghurt providing a softer tang than one would find in a traditional Turkish recipe.

Another dish with a deft touch is beef short rib, cooked for 32 hours, which has mild flavour and meltin-the-mouth texture and a touch of freshly picked thyme from the hotel’s organic vegetable garden.

Besides its organic vegetable garden, other sustainable practices at the resort include free range chickens, re-usable glass drinking water bottles and a fleet of electric-powered Tesla S limousines to whisk guests from Chengdu’s Shuangliu International Airport to the resort in about an hour.

Alongside a Chinese and a Thai restaurant, Six Senses Qing Cheng Mountain also offers traditional Sichuan homestyle casual dining at Wok Mee Shack.

Dan Dan Noodles and its braised beef noodles are delicious, spicy simplicity.

A

s dawn slowly sweeps across Jade Dragon S n o w Mountain, its jagged snow-capped peaks reveal themselves in pale shades of rose, then orange and finally yellow before the warm hues of sunrise give way to clear daylight.

At almost 6,000 metres at the highest of its 13 peaks, which together resemble a dragon’s back, this mountain is holy to the ethnic Naxi people and stands sentry over their ancient kingdom of Lijiang, one of China’s most picturesque destinations. Higher View takes a look at three hotels that make the most of the scenic and cultural riches of this region.

Luxury resort chain Aman’s third China property Amandayan takes its name from Dayan, the Naxi name for Lijiang’s ancient town, which sits at 2,300 metres above sea level with more than 1,000 years of history. Amandayan has a commanding view of the UNESCO World Heritage site’s distinctive curved rooftops and winding cobblestoned streets from Lion Hill, which rises from the centre of Lijiang.

Amandayan shares its location with Wenchang Palace, built in 1725 to host civil service exams. Its 35 spacious suites are inspired by traditional Naxi architecture with twin level courtyard compounds offering balconies and terraces. Heated floorboards and free-standing bathtubs are among the luxurious interior touches.

The ancient town’s bar street can get crowded and raucous at night, but early risers at Amandayan are rewarded by a short walk down Lion Hill to the narrow, deserted streets and many canals that have given Lijiang the nickname ‘Venice of the East’. Among the first stores to open each day are local bakeries, which offer oven-fresh rose petal cakes, a buttery version of a mooncake with sweetened rose petals inside flaky pastry. With a flavour somewhere between a croissant and Turkish delight, they are a must-try for the sweet-toothed. >

“The Jet Pool Villas feature outdoor stone tiled jacuzzis set in traditional courtyards” While Lijiang offers numerous fascinating sites such as Mu’s Mansion, the expansive Qing dynasty garden courtyard home of Lijiang’s feudal rulers, Amandayan staff are happy to arrange day trips outside the ancient town with local Naxi guides.

Yuhu village, at the foot of Jade Dragon Snow Mountain, 12 kilometres from the ancient town, is home to around 500 Naxi families.

The region’s most celebrated expatriate, Dr. Joseph Rock, spent much of his time in this stone village between 1922 and 1949. Dr. Rock was an Austro-Hungarian botanist and explorer whose writings and photography for National Geographic magazine shared the region with the western world. While his home is open to the public, an impressive print exhibition from the National Geographic archives is also on permanent display at Wenchang Palace at Amandayan.

A living link to this history is a short drive away at the Snow Dragon Snow Mountain, Chinese Herbal Medicine Clinic at Baisha Village. The clinic’s 95 year old proprietor, Dr. Ho, claims to have been one of Rock’s botany students: “I knew him very well. He was the same age as my father.” Dr. Ho, whose wife is 94, attributes his longevity to healthy lifestyle and a knowledge of herbs honed over 12 generations. “Some of these herbs are unknown outside these mountains,” he says.

城12公里，住着大约500户纳西族家庭。这 里最知名的外国人是约瑟夫·洛克（Joseph Rock）博士，1922年到1949年间，他的多数 时间都是在玉湖村度过的。洛克博士是奥匈 帝国的植物学家和探险家，他在《国际地理》 上发表文章和摄影作品向西方介绍了丽江的 情况。当他在丽江的居所对外开放后，约瑟 夫·洛克为《国家地理》杂志提供过的摄影 作品也在大研安缦的文昌宫永久展出。 要找到与这段历史有关的现存证人，我 们需要驱车前往不远处的白沙村“丽江玉龙 雪山本草诊所”。诊所主人已有95岁高龄，他 说他曾师从洛克博士学习草药学， “我和他 很熟。他和我父亲同岁。”诊所主人的妻子 已有94岁高龄，他认为自己长寿的原因在于 健康的生活方式和12代人流传下来的草药知 识。 “其中一些草药甚至不为外界所知。”

不管山有多高 丽江悦榕庄酒店位于美丽的纳西族聚居地束 河古镇的边缘，距离丽江古镇中心有1个半 小时的车程。丽江悦榕庄酒店充分利用其地 理位置优势，在这里可以饱览玉龙雪山的美 景。悦榕庄酒店最好的房型是按摩池别墅， 其特色为传统花园式庭院中极可意的室外石 砖浴缸。 除了泡在温暖的泡泡浴中，享受悦榕庄 酒店为您准备的奢华spa理疗外，客人也许 别无他求。然而到附近的山中散步，也能

给您的丽江之旅留下深刻的记忆。比如前往 世界上最深的峡谷之一，位于玉龙雪山北侧 的虎跳峡。 “这是世界上最棒的徒步之旅，绝对令人 震撼。”奈吉尔·费舍尔（Nigel Fisher）说， “在路上的每一分钟都是值得的。”徒步 走完全程大约需要2个小时，沿长江（中国 最长的河流）最大的支流之一金沙江蜿蜒 而行。 要想徒步走完虎跳峡最快的方法就是， 先驱车前往半路的中途客栈，在此稍作休 息，来一杯云南普洱茶消乏提神，然后继续 蜿蜒曲折的旅途。普洱茶是一种略带烟熏味 的陈年老茶，曾是茶马道，即穿梭在这些雪 山之中通往西藏的贸易往来之路上的珍贵出 口品。 此次徒步之旅的起始海拔高度是2,100 米，随后会继续上升至海拔2,650米，要想到 达这个高度，需要有强健的体魄。从奔流的 金沙江到峰顶，海拔落差约3,790米，和这里 壮观的景色一样令人叹为观止。 在不同的季节，除了偶尔出现的牧羊人和 无人看管的羊群外，徒步旅行者可以独享这 壮丽的景色。 回到丽江悦榕庄酒店后，没有什么比当地 的香格里拉啤酒和丰盛的纳西火锅更能让人 身心放松的了。纳西火锅使用铜制大锅，选 用大块带骨肉汤或鸡汤，加入肉和蔬菜进行 烹制。 > 91

LIJIANG

Guests may be tempted to do little else, but soak in warm bubbling waters and enjoy Banyan Tree’s luxury spa treatments, but a trek into the surrounding mountains is one of Lijiang’s most profound experiences. On the back side of Jade Snow Mountain lies Tiger Leaping Gorge, one of the world’s deepest canyons.

“It’s one of the best hikes in the world – absolutely spectacular,” says Sydney-born hotel manager Nigel Fisher, “and worth every minute it takes to get there.” The journey of around two hours, hugs the curves of the Jinsha River, a primary tributary of the Yangtze, China’s longest river.

The quickest way to hike the gorge is to drive to the halfway point and stop at the Halfway Guesthouse for a refreshing glass of Yunnan Pu’er Tea, before venturing on the winding path. This slightly smoky flavoured aged tea was once a prized export along the Tea Horse Road, a trade route that weaved through these same mountain paths all the way to Tibet.

As the hike begins at an altitude of 2,100 metres and rises to 2,650 metres, those who embark upon it should have a good level of fitness. The altitude can be almost as breathtaking as the views, which stretch around 3,790 metres from the rushing Jinsha River to the highest peak.

Depending on the season, hikers might have the spectacular views entirely to themselves, save for the occasional herder and perhaps an unaccompanied family of goats.

Once back at Banyan Tree Lijiang, there is no better way to unwind than with a locally brewed Shangri-La Beer and a hearty Naxi hot pot, a copper cauldron in which meat and vegetables are cooked in a choice of ham bone or chicken soup.

SECRET PARADISE

Beyond Tiger Leaping Gorge lies Shangri-La, formerly known as Zhongdian County. In an attempt to spur tourism, this town within the Deqing Tibetan Autonomous Prefecture was renamed after a fictional land featured in James Hilton’s 1933 novel, Lost Horizon, which was inspired in part by the non-fictional writings of Dr. Joseph Rock. The journey by road to Shangri-La takes around four hours through spectacular mountain passes. This is soon to be significantly reduced by both a new highway and a rail link. While Shangri-La is also serviced by Diqing Airport, it is advisable to acclimatise to 2,300 metres altitude in Lijiang before travelling to Shangri-La, which sits at around 3,300 metres.

Banyan Tree Ringha, like its Lijiang counterpart, is managed by an Australian; in this case, Mario Piazzo, another ex-Sydneysider who has fallen in love with the region’s landscape and culture. “This is a magical place to discover. Ringha is full of surprises every day. You just have to be ready with your camera!”

The resort sits in a secluded river valley lined with 600-year-old spruce trees. Lodgings are reconstructed 80-year-old twin-level Tibetan farmhouses which have flat roofs, stone walls and timber balconies fronted by huge tree trunk pillars, the width of which is a marker of family wealth. All but the walls of the houses are original including the carved wood panels and Tibetan tapestries within.

Wooden hot tubs are standard in all accommodations.

The resort is around 30 minutes drive from Shangri-La’s ancient town, smaller than Lijiang’s and with a distinctly Tibetan flavour to its cobblestoned streets and shop fronts. Popular outings from the resort include trips to Ganden Sumtseling Monastery, Yunnan’s largest monastery, built in 1679 and to Napa Lake, a 660 square kilometre wetlands reserve that is a beacon for thousands of migratory birds.

Banyan Tree Ringha’s charms can also be enjoyed by foot accompanied by a knowledgeable local guide. A short stroll through the resort’s neighbouring Hong Po village leads to 800-year-old Dabao Temple, which sits upon a forested hill. At the top of the ancient steps lined with cylindrical copper prayer wheels, visitors are greeted by a menagerie of tame chickens, pigeons, turkeys and the odd rabbit. These temple wardens are referred to as ‘animal monks’.

Many of them have been bought and taken here to save them from the dining table and in turn, earn their saviours good karma.

Back in the village, after descending the temple’s stairs, resort guests are treated to a Tibetan afternoon tea served in a village farmhouse. The spread consists of warm flat bread, sugar-sprinkled yak cheese (which has the consistency of Greek feta cheese and a sharp yoghurt flavour) and yak butter tea. This hot concoction of pu-er tea is mixed with powdered barley and seasoned with salt.

The nourishing brew is said to be an excellent tonic for the adverse effects of altitude. Guests often find themselves eagerly agreeing to a refill as they enjoy the authentic Tibetan hospitality.

秘密花园 除了虎 跳 峡 外，香格里拉，即以前的中甸 县，也值得一游。1933年，詹姆斯·希尔顿 （James Hilton）从约瑟夫·洛克博士纪实作 品中获得了部分灵感，创作了小说《消失的地 平线》。 “香格里拉”就是这部小说里面虚构 的一个地名。之后，为了吸引游客，迪庆藏族 自治州的这个小镇更名为“香格里拉”。通往 香格里拉的山路蜿蜒盘旋，大约需要4个小 时。此外，迪庆机场有飞机飞抵香格里拉，但 建议游客先在丽江适应一下2,300米的海拔， 然后再飞往海拔3,300米的香格里拉。

和丽江的悦榕庄酒店一样，仁安悦榕庄酒 店的总经理也是澳大利亚人，叫马里奥·皮 亚佐（Mario Piazzo）。马里奥来自悉尼，后 来爱上了这里的风景和文化。 “这个地方有太 多神奇之处等待发掘，在仁安的每一天都充 满了惊喜。您要时刻备好相机！” 仁安悦榕庄酒店坐落在一个隐蔽的河谷 中，河谷中生长着有600年历史的云杉树。这 里有80年前建造的藏民房屋，为双层平屋顶 结构，有石墙和原木阳台，其中阳台由树干做 成的柱子支撑，而树干的粗细则标志着家庭 的富裕程度。仁安悦榕庄酒店正是在这些房 屋的基 础 上改 造而 成 的 。除 墙 体外， 酒店里包 含木板 雕 刻和藏式 地毯等的 一切都保 留了最 初 的模 样。 木制热水 浴缸是所 有房间的 标配。

仁安悦榕庄酒店距离香格里拉古 镇约 有30分钟的车程。香格里拉比丽江要小， 鹅卵石街道和沿街店铺有着明显的藏族特 色。从酒店出发，热门的远足地点有云南最 大的寺庙噶丹松赞林寺，建于1679年；以及 面积达660平方公里的湿地保护区纳帕海， 是数以千计候鸟的栖息地。 如 果 有 对 当 地 情 况 非 常 了解 的 导 游 陪同，步行亦可感受仁和悦榕庄的魅力。 穿过 隔 壁 的 红 坡 村，闲 庭 信步 便 可 抵 达 有着8 0 0年历史的大宝寺。大宝寺坐落在 一 个 郁 郁 葱 葱 的 小 山上，沿 着 古老 的台 阶拾阶而上，即可看到一排转经筒。这里还 豢养着家鸡、鸽子、火鸡和兔子。大宝寺里 的僧人被称作“动物僧人”，因为这里的很 多动物都是被人买来送到这里，避免成为 人们的盘中餐。当然，这也算是拯救者在积 德行善。 从大宝寺下来回到红坡村，游客们可以 在农家小院里享受一顿藏式下午茶，有热 薄饼、加糖牦牛奶酪和酥油茶等。牦牛奶 酪的粘稠度和西拉菲达奶酪类似，有一股 浓浓的酸奶味。酥油茶则是将青稞粉和盐 混入热普洱茶中调制而成。据说，这种颇有 营养的茶饮是缓解高原反应的良药。游客 们往往被藏民的热情好客所感染，很乐意 再饮一杯酥油茶。 93

ADELAIDE OVAL Have you ever leaned back over the edge of a 55-metre tall building?

No? Neither have I, and let me tell you, even though I was perfectly safe and secure, it was equally nerve-wracking and exhilarating.

In 2014, Adelaide Oval underwent a staggering $535 million dollar redevelopment to make it a centrepiece of Adelaide’s CBD. Adelaide is home to international cricket games, football matches and concerts. It was during the redevelopment that the oval’s iconic RoofClimb was introduced. You can climb the sails that make the roof of Adelaide Oval all the way to the ‘lean out’ point. If you’re an avid cricket fan, then this is the best seat in the house. You can watch six to seven overs from this very vantage point come game day.

2KW BAR AND RESTAURANT

You'll find 2KW perched eight floors above Adelaide. The terrace boasts panoramic views of the city, stretching all the way out to Adelaide Oval, which we climbed earlier in the day. There are so many angles to see this oval from, and it looks a little different every time. Here, on the terrace, is the best spot to watch the sunset over a glass of wine picked from their extensive wine menu. And I mean extensive. The wine menu is 45 pages long, with the majority of bottles coming straight from the restaurant’s door step in South Australia. Similar to the wine menu, the restaurant menu allows you to sample the freshest local produce like Willunga squid from the Fleurieu Peninsula, Coffin Bay baby octopus from Eyre Peninsula and, with 24-hour notice, 2KW can prepare a South Australian Crayfish, a crustacean that has sweet meat, looks a little like a lobster, and is unique to South Australia.

2KW屋顶酒吧餐厅 2KW屋顶酒吧餐厅位于8层楼的高空。在这 里的露天平台，您可以360°全方位俯瞰阿 德莱德的城市风景，视野可以一直触及我们 今天早些时候攀登过的阿德莱德板球场。 您可以从不同的视角欣赏阿德莱德板球场， 每一种视角都会带给您些许不同的感受。 而从品类丰富的酒水单中点一款酒，欣赏日 落美景，2KW屋顶酒吧餐厅所处的露天平 台再合适不过了。我说的品类丰富是指2KW 屋顶酒吧餐厅的酒水单长达45页，大多数 酒水都是直接来自南澳州的酒庄。与酒单类 似，餐厅的菜品使您有机会品尝到菲尔半岛 （Fleurieu Peninsula）的威伦加乌贼、艾尔 半岛（Eyre Peninsula）的柯芬湾小章鱼等 当地最新鲜的海产品。若能提前24小时预 订，2KW屋顶酒吧餐厅还能为您烹制澳大利 亚小龙虾。这种小龙虾和龙虾有几分相像， 且肉质鲜美，是南澳州的特有品种。

CLELAND WILDLIFE PARK You can’t visit Australia without cuddling one of their ridiculously cute national treasures, the koala. The best place to do this is at Cleland Wildlife Park. Here, koalas are carefully looked after.

The park is unlike your typical zoo – it is surrounded by a national park, so instead of the animals feeling like they’re in a man-made environment, we feel like we’re in theirs. You can walk in large grassland enclosures among emus and kangaroos and even have a go at feeding them. Living in China, we only get to get to see kangaroos in pictures, so to see one hop right past me was surreal.

On my visit, I was lucky enough to name a baby koala. The name I chose for him was Bao Bao, which means cuddles. This reminded me of Ping Ping and An An, the two pandas I have adopted back home in China. They live at the Chengdu Research Base of Giant Panda Breeding and I love going back to visit them. I plan to come back and visit Bao Bao when he is a little older.

CHAPEL HILL WINERY There’s no denying that South Australia has some of the finest wine Down Under. Having already been a fan of drinking Australian wine imported in China, I was looking forward to being able to taste a wide range of wines from Chapel Hill. The vines at Chapel Hill were planted in 1838 and still produce the grapes for wine making today. This is a testament to Chapel Hill’s dedication to keeping soil healthy and sustainable farming practices to build character in the vineyards, and ultimately the wine. I personally believe, if you treat nature well, it will treat you well in return.

D’A RENBERG CUBE The d’Arenberg Cube is groundbreaking. From when the concept of it was first thought up by Chester Osborn, fourth-generation grape grower and chief winemaker at one of South Australia’s most significant wineries, d’Arenberg, it took 14 years to become the reality we see today. Having such a modern building sitting in the middle of a vineyard breaks the stereotype of what a traditional cellar door should be. The five-storey half-solved-Rubik’s-Cube-like structure is home to a contemporary wine museum, which includes a quirky wine fog museum, offices, a commercial kitchen, a fine dining restaurant and glass-encased pavilion, which offers panoramic views of the whole region.

D'Arenberg Cube D'Arenberg Cube非常有新意，其设计理念由南澳州最大的葡萄酒厂 商之一——d'Arenberg第四代葡萄种植者兼首席酿酒师切斯特·奥斯 本（Chester Osborn）提出。历经14年，d'Arenberg Cube才成为了我 们今天看到的模样。葡萄园中心屹立着如此现代化的建筑，这打破了人 们对传统酒窖的刻板印象。这座看似未拼好的魔方的五层建筑物内有一 座现代葡萄酒博物馆，馆内包括一个奇异的酒雾室、办公室、商用厨房、 高级餐厅和玻璃展馆，从那里可以俯瞰整个附近的地区。

“在柯芬湾吃到的生蚝是 我吃过的最鲜美的生蚝”

SOUTH AUSTR A LIA

COFFIN BAY OYSTER FARM

Now oysters are not unfamiliar to me, or most people in China. We love seafood, especially oysters. But I don’t think I've tried fresher oysters than Coffin Bay oysters. Picking an oyster straight from the water, shucking and eating it right there – it’s just not possible to get any fresher. I lost count with how many I ate; they were too delicious to stop at one. What’s most surprising about oyster farming is learning about how oysters grow. It’s hard to believe that they are the size of a grain of rice to begin with and then grow into something so large. But it’s all part of the beauty of nature and how it will always continue to impress me with its grandness.

柯芬湾生蚝养殖场

Eyre Peninsula BAIRD BAY

The beauty of animal experiences in South Australia is that they are almost always in the wild and natural habitat of the animal. When you swim with native sea lions at Baird Bay, there’s no cage in between. It’s just you, the crystal clear waters of Baird Bay, and the sea lions. If you’re not an animal person, you needn’t worry. Sea lions are an extremely friendly species and will happily swim right up to your face. Sea lions are one of the rarest species in the world and are only found in Western Australian and South Australia, with 85% of the population found in the latter. Most days, you’ll get to swim around with at least two to three sea lions, and if you’re as lucky as I am, you might even spot an abalone to pick up.

如今生蚝对于我或多数中国人来说，并不稀奇。我们爱海 鲜，尤其爱生蚝。但是在柯芬湾吃到的生蚝是我吃过的最 鲜美的生蚝。从水中直接捡起一只生蚝，剥开壳，直接食 用，味道再鲜美不过了。我数不清自己吃了几只，因为它们 太美味了，根本停不下来。生蚝的成长过程是整个养殖过程 中最令人震惊的。开始时它们只有一粒米那么大，然后慢慢 长成这么大个，简直令人难以置信。但是这就是大自然的美 妙之处，并且它的伟大还将一直继续下去，令人叹为观止。

SYDNEY’S WATER W FEATURE

The waterside setting is sure to add another dimension to a Puccini favourite when Handa Opera on Sydney Harbour brings La Boheme to the Royal Botanic Gardens in 2018, writes Sarah Nicholson.

萨拉·尼克尔森（Sarah Nicholson） 写道，2018年当悉尼海港歌剧节（Handa Opera on Sydney Harbour）将《波希米亚人》 （La Boheme）搬上悉尼皇家植物园 （Royal Botanic Gardens）的舞台时，滨水布景 无疑会为普契尼（Puccini）这一名剧增色添彩。

Handa Opera on Sydney Harbour’s previous production, Carmen

hen the Handa Opera on Sydney Harbour production of La Boheme premieres on March 23, there will be an unusual challenge for the ensemble to conquer.

The beloved Puccini opera will be performed outdoors and under the stars in the city’s Royal Botanic Gardens, so the cast will be fighting the temptation to gaze at the lights sparkling around Sydney Harbour as they stand on stage telling the tale of love and loss in 19th-century Paris.

Opera Australia’s artistic director Lyndon Terracini is the mastermind behind Handa Opera on Sydney Harbour – called HOSH by cast and crew – and he came up with the concept while strolling around a scenic corner of the waterside park.

月23日，当《波希米亚人》在悉尼海 港歌剧节上奏响，整个剧团需要克 服超乎寻常的困难。 这一颇受听众喜爱的普契尼歌剧将在悉尼 皇家植物园的星空下进行露天表演，当剧团 人员站在舞台上演绎这个发生在19世纪的巴 黎的关于爱与失去的故事时，他们要去抵制 凝望海港周围璀璨闪耀的灯光的诱惑。 澳大利亚歌剧团（Opera Australia）艺 术总监林登·特拉西尼（Lyndon Terracini） 是悉尼海港歌剧节——被剧团演员和工作人 员称为HOSH——的策划。当他漫步在滨水 公园中一处风景如画的角落时，萌生了这个 想法。 提到此次灵光乍现的经历，他说： “我一直 认为，歌剧需要有更广泛的受众群体，而不能 仅局限于歌剧狂热粉。我在花园中散步时，瞥 见了城市边际线和穿梭的渡轮构成的布景， > 简直令人惊艳。” 111

SYDNEY

“I always felt opera needed to play to a broader audience, rather than just the aficionados who follow it, and when I was walking around the gardens I saw this amazing setting with the city skyline and ferries dashing about,’’ he says of the light-bulb moment.

“I wanted to float that stage in front of the Sydney Opera House but the wash from the ferries would have moved it around – not only disastrous for lighting, but it could have made the singers seasick. So instead, we sunk pylons into the water and every year we come back and sit the stage in place.

“HOSH is preparing for its seventh season, after premiering in 2012 with La Traviata, and now boasts more than just the show, with the Mrs Macquaries Point location home to five restaurants offering the audience everything from fine dining to street food before the curtain rises.

“And La Boheme is one of the most popular operas ever written that’s not only perfect for beginners, but is also popular with experts.’’

Higher View asked members of the cast and crew – director Andy Morton, conductor Brian Castles-Onion, and soprano Julie Lea Goodwin who plays Musetta – to share some HOSH secrets.

“我想让舞台漂浮在悉尼歌剧院（Sydney Opera House）前，可渡轮激起的水花会令 舞台游走，这不仅会给照明设备带来灾难，而 且也可能使歌手们晕船。所以取而代之的是， 我们在水中搭建了桥架，每年我们回来再将 舞台固定在合适的位置。” “在2012年我们首次公演《茶花女》后， 我们当前正在筹备第七届悉尼海港歌剧节。 令我们自豪的是，现在观众不仅可以在麦夸 里夫人岬角（Mrs Macquarie Point）欣赏歌 剧，还有5家餐厅供其选择。从精美的晚餐到 路边小吃，在帷幕掀开之前，观众可以在这5 家餐厅品尝到一切美食。” “《波希米亚人》是最负盛名的歌剧之一， 它不仅完美契合歌剧入门人士的需求，也颇 受歌剧发烧粉的青睐。” 《翼境》特邀悉尼海港歌剧团演员和工作 人员——导演安迪·莫顿（Andy Morton） ，指挥布莱恩·卡斯尔斯·奥尼恩（B r ian Castles-Onion）和扮演穆塞特（Musetta） 的女高音歌手茱莉·莱娅·古德温（Julie Lea Goodwin）——与我们分享一些HOSH的 秘密。 112

ANDY MORTON, DIRECTOR

安迪·莫顿 导演 Director Andy Morton has worked on five HOSH productions, but 2018 will be his first year at the helm. He’s chuffed to bring the magic of wintertime Paris to the heart of the vibrant Australian city. 安迪·莫顿导演已经执导了5次HOSH演出，然 而2018年是他第一次作为HOSH的负责人参 与演出。对于能将冬日里巴黎的魔力带到澳 大利亚充满活力的悉尼，他显得非常满意。 How does La Boheme compare to other operas?

La Boheme is about young people, so it has tremendous musical and dramatic energy that’s about as far from the stereotypical “stand and sing’’ opera as it’s possible to get. Everyone in the audience has been young and fallen in love, so the characters will strike a

chord. Yes, they’re singing in Italian, but we have fantastic Chinese and English subtitles on the stage so anyone can follow the story without having a clue before the start. 《波希米亚人》和其它歌剧相比如何？ 《波希米亚人》讲述的是年轻人的故事，所 以它会比刻板的“独立高歌”式的戏剧拥有 更多的音乐及戏剧活力。每位观众都曾年轻 过，也曾坠入爱河过，因此歌剧中的人物会引 起观众的共鸣。没错，该剧是由意大利语演出 的，但舞台上配有精彩的中英文字幕，如此一 来大家就都能理解歌剧内容，而不会在演出 开始时一头雾水。

Why is this the perfect story for HOSH? The opera is romantic and intimate, but it takes place against the backdrop of a boisterous night of Christmas Eve celebration, and we have the space to transport the audience into a festive scene straight out of the Parisian Latin Quarter complete with ice and snow.

We love the idea that we’re here in subtropical Sydney and we’re putting ice and snow in the middle of the harbour.

为什么对于HOSH来说它是一个完美的故事？ 《波希米亚人》是关于浪漫爱情和亲密友情 的故事，然而故事发生在喧嚣的平安夜期间， 我们可以将观众移置于巴黎拉丁区一个冰天 雪地的节日场景之中。虽然我们身处亚热带 的悉尼，却在海港中央设置了冰天雪地的布 景，我们很喜欢这个点子。

What is your favourite moment in the 2018 production?

If I had to pick a musical moment in La Boheme it would be the duet between Rodolfo and Marcello at the top of act four. It melts my heart every time to hear these young men dealing with their loss so poignantly. 关于2018年的《波希米亚人》，您最喜欢哪一 部分？ 如 果 非 要 我 选 出《 波希 米 亚 人 》中 最 悦 耳的乐章，我想会是第四幕高潮时鲁道夫 （Rodolfo）和马尔切罗（Marcello）的二重 唱部分，每每听到这两位年轻男子抒发他们 内心苦楚的歌声，我的心都跟着融化了。 > 113

What is the most impressive aspect of a HOSH season?

The technical requirements are beyond belief and there are more than 300 people involved every night with each element coming together to make a seamless show. The Sydney Harbour environment is an incredible performance space that really has two sets: the grand production set in front, and the spectacular view of the Sydney Opera House with the Harbour Bridge as the backdrop. 悉尼海港歌剧节最令人印象深刻的是什么？ 悉尼海港歌剧节对技术的要求令人难以置 信，我们每天晚上都有300名工作人员作为演 出的一份子参与其中，以确保演出的完美衔 接。悉尼海港是非比寻常的演出场地，实际上 可以说这里有两套布景，即位于前面的布景 和后面壮观的悉尼歌剧院和悉尼海港大桥。

What’s your biggest challenge performing on the Royal Botanic Garden stage?

The key challenge is sound. As performers, we can’t rely on acoustics in this outdoor venue, so the set-up, proximity to the conductor and audio

sensations are very different to a traditional theatre. 您在皇家植物园表演遇到的最大的挑战是 什么？ 最大的挑战来自音响效果，因为在户外场所表 演时我们无法依赖音响效果，所以乐团指挥附 近的设备和音响都和传统剧院有很大不同。

I think the trickiest aspect of performing Musetta is maintaining appropriate contact with the conductor in particular physicalised sections, such as the fight scene in act three. 作为一个艺术家，普契尼经典作品有没有给 您带来挑战？ 这是我第三次参演澳大利亚歌剧院的《波希 米亚人》，每次参演我都能从角色身上挖掘出 新的东西，这是我喜欢的，我认为表演穆赛塔 最棘手的一点就是要和乐团指挥保持合理的 互动，尤其是需要运用肢体语言表达情感时， 如第三幕中穆赛塔和马尔切罗的争吵情景。

BRIAN CASTLES– ONION, CONDUCTOR 布莱恩·卡 斯尔斯·奥 尼恩 指挥

Conductor Brian Castles-Onion is a HOSH veteran, leading the orchestra through every season since 2012, and he says the 2018 production promises magical moments that are sure to enchant the audience. 布莱恩·卡斯尔斯·奥尼恩已经是悉尼海港歌 剧节的老熟人，自2012年起每年他都会作为 管弦乐队的指挥。他说，2018年的演出将是 见证奇迹的时刻，无疑会令观众为之痴狂。 What do you love most about La Boheme?

There are too many wonderful things about La Boheme to single out even a few particular moments, but I adore the

score. It’s been part of my soul since I first heard it when I was four. I would be happy to conduct act three every night of my life. It’s wonderful in every way.

The story takes a sharp turn and Puccini provides some of his most emotional and poignant music. 关于《波希米亚人》，您最爱的是什么？ 《波希米亚人》有太多值得褒奖的精彩之处， 它甚至还有一些独有的乐章。不过我最爱的 是这部歌剧的配乐， 自从四岁时第一次听到 它，它便融入到了我的灵魂之中。每天晚上如 能指挥第三幕乐章的演奏，我会非常开心。当 故事情节急转而下，伴着普契尼谱写的最动 人、最凄美的乐章，这种感觉无比美妙。

What are the challenges performing outdoors?

Weather plays a big part. In the past, we’ve paused the show a couple of times for a few minutes for heavy rain or excessive wind, but that’s part of the experience.

The audience feels even more a part of the show when this occurs, cheering the performers on until the end, and we frequently receive a standing ovation on rainy nights as everyone knows they’ve been part of something special.

进行户外表演的挑战是什么？ 天气很关键，过去由于狂风暴雨，我们曾在 表演中暂停过几次，但那也是一种经历。发 生这种情况时，观众甚至会对演出更加投 入，他们一直在为演员欢呼喝彩，直至演出 结束。在雨夜演出时，我们经常遇到观众起 立鼓掌，因为大家知道自己参加了一场特别 的演出。

How do you know you’ve had a good night at work?

It’s our job to take everyone on an emotional journey and when the entire audience wells up with tears in their eyes we know we’ve succeeded.

Puccini is a master of emotion, the Opera Australia orchestra knows the score more than most and plays it to perfection, and in 2018 we have a dream cast of exceptional singing actors. 您如何判断自己晚上的表现是否良好？ 我们的工作就是要带动每位观众踏上一场 情感体验之旅，当所有观众眼中的泪水喷 涌而出，我们知道我们成功了。普契尼是情 感处理方面的大师，澳大利亚歌剧团的管 弦乐队谙熟配乐之道且极尽配乐之能事，并 且2018年我们会拥有由优秀的歌唱演员组 成的梦幻阵营。 115

Top of its class With high-level technology and thoughtful, innovative design, the new C300 is a big-picture car for people who are too busy to get weighed down by the little things, writes Susannah Guthrie SPECS Price From $69,900 Engine 2.0L turbo four-cylinder Output 80kW/370Nm Transmission 9G-Tronic 9-Speed Dimensions 4686mm (L), 1810mm (W), 1442mm (H) Weight 1530kg 0 – 100km/h 5.9sec

Mercedes Benz released its all-new C300 in July this year, and since then it has become abundantly clear the C in the car’s moniker stands for comfort, convenience and class.

Everything in the elegant sedan is designed to make your life on the road easier. The buttery leather seats can be adjusted with controls on the door, so you don’t have to scrabble around under your seat. The wood-appointed dash features plenty of stylish storage options to keep your knickknacks out of sight, and the car’s safety technology is second to none.

The glossy exterior – with its three-pointed star proudly displayed on the front grille – is the epitome of understated elegance, but adds a sporty edge, and can be amped up with several add-on packages. The AMG Line bundle, for 122

example, brings a flat-bottomed steering wheel so you can fulfill your racecar driver fantasies.

Once inside the car, getting comfortable is an almost instantaneous process thanks to top-of-the-range safety technology as standard.

Scrupulous blind-spot monitoring warns you of nearby cars before you change lanes and a 360-degree camera takes the thinking out of parking and manoeuvring in tight spaces.

An automated, mid-sized boot and touch pad controls for the panoramic display screen – conveniently located at hand-height – are the icing on top of the proverbial cake.

But enthusiastic test drivers beware. Before you get going, it’s worth noting the gearstick is actually located on the right indicator, which can be tricky. For the love of all things good,

don’t accidentally pop the car into neutral when you’re trying to signal a right turn.

The C300’s fuel economy clocks in at an impressive 7.4L/100km thanks to a savvy idlestop function, but that doesn’t mean the car is lacking oomph. The high-output turbo petrol engine packs a punch on the road, and happily the car endures barely any bumps due to its standout Agility Control suspension.

But while practicality is key, the C300 still manages to maintain its sense of a fun. As part of the $3,838 Vision package you get a positively panoramic sunroof that leaves the car feeling more like a convertible than a sedan.

Other small but thoughtful touches – like a classic analogue clock on the dash – will ensure you keep discovering little things you love.

Handpicked and home delivered 首彩葡萄酒与送货上门服务

Handpicked Wines is pushing the wine business into the future, reckons Nick Stocks

Handpicked. It’s a name that says a lot about a wine and, in this case, a lot about the idea behind this modern global wine business and the inspiration and passion of founder of Handpicked Wines, William Dong. With strong business networks and experience in China, Australia and beyond, Dong has established a multi-tier, multi-region wine brand that has assets spread across multiple Australian states and the ability to custom make wines for almost any audience.

Dong brings a refreshingly open-minded approach to his wine business and is extremely active in developing new wines and new markets. The most recent developments include a rosé collaboration, urban cellar door experiences and the acquisition of vineyards in the Mornington Peninsula, Barossa Valley and Yarra Valley. It’s a unique wine business in that it’s open to making virtually any wine anywhere the right opportunity exists. It sounds simple, but it’s a wildly ambitious approach in the often conservative world of wine.

Director of winemaking Pete Dillon has impressive experience across major Australian wineries, but none have given him the scope of Handpicked. He oversees winemaking in Australia, New Zealand, France, Italy and Portugal, and while Barossa shiraz is the number 1 24

首彩这个名字能够传达很多的意思，而在本 文中则传达着这家全球性葡萄酒企业背后的 故事和创始人董威萳先生的灵感和激情。董 威萳先生在中国、澳大利亚等地拥有强大的 企业网络和经验，建立了一个多层次、多区域 的葡萄酒品牌，其资产分布于澳大利亚多个 州，具备几乎能够为任何客户定制葡萄酒的 能力。 在葡萄酒经营方面，董威萳先生的观念 十分开放，令人耳目一新，并且在开发新的葡 萄酒和新的市场方面十分活跃。最新的进展

HIGHER LIFE

one selling wine for the brand, he’s fanatical about making pinot noir, a varietal that’s showing strong growth for Handpicked domestically and abroad. “All the wines are distinctive,” Dillon says, “just like the regions from which they come, and my aim is to make the best pinot noir wines in every region.”

Major brands hedge their innovative efforts into the production side of their business, but Handpicked is just as innovative in the consumer-facing direction.

This is one point of difference among many in what is a proudly non-traditional wine business. And the innovative approach is working, with Handpicked registering 79% growth in China and 39% growth in Australia year on year.

Following a successful Urban Cellar Door project in Sydney, Handpicked has plans to roll these out in other Australian cities and also into mainland China. And while the brand has achieved success and recognition in the traditional world of wine, it sees the path to future growth being a more progressive lifestyle approach with plans to expand their collaborative projects in creative industries like art and fashion.

Importantly, they also understand the needs of the modern traveller and offer a China Home Delivery Service from Australian outbound international terminals. Customers shop and purchase wine in the airport and their purchase is delivered duty free to their chosen address in China while they’re free to travel light. A shining example of William Dong’s vision and the desire of Handpicked Wines to be at the forefront of quality, innovation and convenience.

MAX MARA大衣的发展史 EVOLUTION OF THE MAX MARA COAT 1950s Max Mara’s first camel coat, which was to become the label’s most coveted item throughout the years. Its design is timeless, elegant and practical.

Max Mara的首款驼绒大衣，此后成为多年来 最受欢迎的品牌，设计风格永恒、优雅、务实。 1960s Structure is at the forefront. Introduction of double breast and belt gave the Max Mara coat a more uniform look. 设计重点放在大衣的轮廓感上，双排扣和腰带 的引入使Max Mara的大衣看起来更加优雅。 1970s Fashion forward, Max Mara makes a bold statement by adding a hood to their coats.

The brand also welcomed the cape style coat.

Max Mara坚持走在时尚前沿，做出大胆突 破，在大衣上加上了兜帽。同期推出的还有斗 篷式大衣。 1980s Relaxing the silhouette, this decade saw the coat take a looser form with oversized styles and wrap coats closed with a tie belt.

80年代的10年间，Max Mara开始走宽松的路 线，采用超大款设计，与腰带搭配使用。 1990s A minimalist take on the coat, Max Mara showcased simple, clean and refined styles of their iconic coat. It was also modelled by original supermodels Carla Bruni, Linda Evangelista and Christy Turlington.

Max Mara开始走极简主义的路线，充分体现 出简洁、明快和精致的风格。同时邀请当时的 超模卡拉·布吕尼（Carla Bruni）、琳达·伊万 格丽斯塔（Linda Evangelista）和克莉丝蒂· 杜灵顿（Christy Turlington）担任模特，完美 展现Max Mara大衣的风采。 2000s Added a feminine touch to their coats with peplum sleeves featured on some styles.

Silhouettes also flattered the woman’s body with pinched waistlines, introducing structure to the coat again. 一些款式的大衣开始采用束腰设计，更具女人 味。裁剪也更加讨好女性，突出女性腰部曲线， 大衣设计很有轮廓感。

2010s The coat goes androgynous and offers women an overcoat that can go from day to night with ease thanks to its high-quality fabric and versatile style. 这些款式没有明显的性别区分，得益于其高质 量的面料和灵活的风格，女性从白天到晚上均 可轻松搭配。

“NEQUO VELENDIS MODITAS PERIT, QUO EXPLIQUASSI AMET EX EXPLATQ UATECAB”

The retrospective, celebrating over 60 years of the label’s coat making, has hit major capital cities around the world including Berlin, Tokyo, Beijing and Moscow.

But its largest exhibition landed in Seoul late last year, where it was displayed in Dongdaemun Design Plaza, the city’s newest and most iconic landmark designed by the late architect Zaha Hadid.

The exhibition featured seven themed rooms, and celebrated Maramotti’s idea to “make the ordinary extraordinary,” with a focus on how the coat, and the women who wear it, have changed through the decades.

The tightly edited selection had been pooled from some 30,000 of the house’s archival magazines and clips, plus 20,000 archival Max Mara pieces, and 8,000 vintage and historical pieces.

To mark the occasion, Max Mara has released a special look. Included is a coat in pure camel’s hair – paying tribute to the brand’s very first coat – with brass colour lining and in the same fabric a shirt with crystal buttons and French cuffs and pencil skirt. This brass colour is inspired by yughee, precious Korean tableware, used by the royal family and passed from generation to generation just as a Max Mara coat would be. Like camel coats to Max Mara, yughee represents the importance of tradition and quality in Korean culture. It’s also renowned for its unique chemical composition, which increases its thermal properties and helps to keep the food it’s holding warm. It shares parallels with how, at the crux of it, a Max Mara coat is made to keep you warm (and looking enviably stylish) throughout winter.

“ A MAX MARA COAT IS PASSED FROM ONE GENERATION TO THE NEXT GENERATION” 象深刻。此外，还搭配有腰带和个性化的衬 里，并在内标签上讲述了该系列大衣的故 事。101801系列是Max Mara全球最畅销 的系列。 Max Mara的大衣已经具有如此标志 性的地位，因此他们觉得有必要进行自己 的展览，即“Coats！”。这次大衣回顾展 旨在展示Max Mara60多年的经典制衣传 承，曾先后在世界主要的首都城市举办，其 中包括柏林、东京、北京和莫斯科。但Max Mara最大的一次展览是去年年底在韩国 首尔东 大门设 计广场 ——首尔最 新的地 标性建筑，由已故的扎哈·哈迪德（Zaha Hadid）设计。 这 次 展 览共 有7个主 题 房间，以彰显 Max Mara“于平凡处见非凡”的理念，集 中体现Max Mara大衣和身着其大衣的女 性在几十年间的变迁。所有展品均从Max

Mara约30,000本档案杂志和剪辑，外加 20,0 0 0款Max Mara存档款式和8,0 0 0 款特定年份和具有历史意义的款式中严格 遴选而出。 为了纪念这一时刻，Max Mara推出了 特别款大衣，即采用黄铜色衬里的纯驼绒 大衣，旨在向该品牌的第一款大衣致敬； 与之搭配的是采用与衬里相同面料、水晶 钮扣和法式袖口的衬衫以及紧身窄裙。黄 铜色衬里以韩国皇室所用代代相传的高 档餐具Yug h ee为灵感，以此体现 Ma x Mara大衣的经典传承。就像Max Mara 的驼绒一样，Yughee餐具在韩国文化中 代表着传统和品质的重要性。Yughee餐 具为人所熟知的还有其独特的化学成分， 可以增强其热性能，有助于食物保温。而 这与Max Mara大衣的设计宗旨不谋而合， 让您在整个冬天既有温度又有风度。 133

Neil Tremaine

Melbourne’s Neil Tremaine has dedicated himself to keeping your most valuable possessions safe for over 10 years. He chats to us about Guardian Vaults, the most advanced storage solution in Australia, as well as his love for Australian cities.

尼尔·特里梅因（NEIL TREMAINE）是土生土长的墨尔本人。10多年来，他一 直在从事贵重物品的保管工作。他与我们谈到了澳大利亚最先进的存储解 决方案——GUARDIAN VAULTS，以及他对澳大利亚各个城市的喜爱之情。

How did you get your start in the vault game? 您是怎么进入保险库行业的？

Guardian Vaults was a natural expansion of my previous experience in self storage banking/investment experience. There was clear market evidence as far back as early 2000 suggesting that banks worldwide were shifting away from the provision of all forms of safe custody. 我之前有过自存仓式银行业务/投资的经历，所以 很自然地就干起了GUARDIAN VAULTS的工作。 这方面的市场早在2000年初就很明显了，当时世 界各地的银行已经逐渐停止提供各类安全保管 服务。

What sets Guardian Vaults apart?

GUARDIAN VAULTS的与众不同之处在哪里？

目前有3个G UARD IAN VAULT S。2个在墨尔 本，1个在悉尼。现在我们正计划在墨尔本再建 1个G UARD IAN VAULTS。下一步的目标是使 GUARDIAN VAULTS遍布澳大利亚的每座城市。

Why should people choose to use vaults such as yours? 客户为什么要选择GUARDIAN VAULTS呢？

Customers are seeking a safe place to store their precious items, from valuable items such as jewellery, precious metals, and the like to keepsakes and identity and legal documents such as photos, passports, titles and wills. This isn’t just for highly expensive items; being able to securely store sentimental items and documents goes a long way for peace of mind.

Security – physical, electronic, strict procedures and protocols. It takes a great deal of resources, due diligence and understanding of the safe custody industry to purpose build a facility such as Guardian Vaults. Entering an industry historically dominated by the banks, Guardian Vaults was determined to surpass the existing levels of security offered.

客户在存放其重要物品时，都希望找一个安全 的地方，无论是珠宝首饰和贵金属这类贵重物 品，还是纪念品以及照片、护照、产权证书和遗 嘱这类身份证明文件与法律文件。GUARDIAN VAULTS的作用并不仅限于存储昂贵的物品，它还 可以用来存储具有情感价值的物品和文件，这样 客户会觉得很踏实。

安全 性——这体现在物理、电子、严格 手续和 各项协议等多个方面。要专门建造GUARDIAN VAULTS这样的设施需要大量资源、尽职调查以 及安全保管行业的知识。由于这个行业历来由银 行主导，我们决心要使GUARDIAN VAULTS超过 银行现有的安全保管水准。

Tell us about the technology and engineering involved in the vaults?

Why did you decide to set roots in Melbourne? 为何决定在墨尔本发展？

I’ve moved all over the world for my work and fell in love with Melbourne and have been here for over a decade now. I love the food and lifestyle of the city. I love trying the plethora of restaurants in Melbourne’s Fitzroy and Collingwood; Chinatown; and Little Vietnam in Victoria Street, Abbotsford. 因为工作的关系我走遍了全球各地，但我爱上了 墨尔本，已经在这里待了10年多的时间。我喜欢 这座城市的美食和生活方式。墨尔本的菲茨罗 伊（FITZROY）、科灵伍德（COLLINGWOOD） 和唐人街的餐厅数不胜数，阿博茨福德区维多 利亚大街（VICTORIA STREET ABBOTSFORD） 的 L I T T L E V I E T N A M 餐厅 也别具 特 色，品尝 这里的美味是我在这座城市里最喜欢做的事情 之一。

GUARDIAN VAULTS采用了哪些技术和设计 标准？

You love to travel. Where are some of your favourite places? 您喜欢旅游，哪些是您最喜欢的地方？

目前GUARDIAN VAULTS都分布在哪里？未来 有什么计划？

Our Vault Walls, Floors and Ceilings have been constructed and designed to ensure all the vaults are secured to a Grade XII rating and to meet Class A Type 1 Installation, where the highest level of security is mandated and tested by ASIO T4. Our Vault Doors alone are weighted up to 4.5 tonne.

Currently there are three facilities – two in Melbourne and one in Sydney. We’re currently planning to build another in Melbourne, and then the next step will be to have facilities in every Australian city.

G UARD I AN VAU LT S的墙壁、地面和顶部 均 我喜欢东南亚，最近去了印度尼西亚和新加坡。 按照12级标准严格设计施工，达到A级1类设施 我也很喜欢欧洲，计划新年时从西班牙北部再走 水平，并且通过澳大利亚安全情报机构（ASIO） 一 次 圣 地 亚 哥 朝 圣 之 路（ C A M I N O D E 最高安全级别T4标准的批准和测试，仅库门就 SANTIAGO／THE WAY OF ST JAMES），全程大 约有850公里！ 重达4.5公吨。

Where are your vaults currently located and what are the plans for the future?

146

I love travelling to South East Asia, and I’ve had recent trips to Indonesia and Singapore, as well as Europe. I have another trip to Europe planned in the New Year to complete another Camino De Santiago or The Way of St James trek through northern Spain – almost 850km!
