ho knew travelling into the past took nothing more than a simple five-minute ferry ride across the Lu River? Gulangyu Island, which sits 600 metres way from Xiamen, is a perfectly preserved time capsule of Fujian province’s yesteryear. To ensure the UNESCO World Cultural Heritage Site island remains intact, no cars, bikes or buses are allowed onto the island. It’s pedestrians only, and the only way to get to the historic site is by a short ferry ride, which is usually a hive of activity. Gulangyu Island is one of the capital city’s standout tourist attractions and draws approximately 10 million visitors a year. Considering the Forbidden City in Beijing attracts 14 million tourists per year, for an island that is a mere 1.88 square kilometres in size the numbers are staggering. “It’s busy here on the ferry because of all the tourists,” our guide Sophie says. “If you live on the island then you’d catch a private boat and it’d be a much more peaceful journey to the city.” Only minutes into the ferry ride, you’ll quickly find the buzz of Xiamen city slowly drift away. Gone are the sounds of cars honking or bikes whizzing past. You won’t even hear a tour guide on a megaphone. Local “islanders” – as Sophie calls them – still live here, and to have megaphone-equipped guides competing with each other to be heard would be worse than having noisy cars on the island, she says. >

谁会 知 道 从鲁河渡 船 5 分钟 便能穿越回到过 去?鼓浪屿离厦门仅600米,是个把福建省的历 史完好保存的时间胶囊。 鼓浪屿被联合国教科文组织列入世界文化遗产名录。 为了让它保持原有风貌,不受破坏,汽车、自行车或公共 汽车一律不能进入该岛,只有行人才能在岛上自由活动。 这就意味着——乘短程轮渡是进入该岛的唯一途径。渡 轮每日来来往往,呈现一片繁忙景象。 鼓浪屿地处福建省厦门市,是该地知名的旅游景点之 一,每年吸引游客约一千万人次。北京紫禁城每年吸引游 客人数为一千四百万,如此说来,对于一个面积仅有1.88 平方公里的岛屿来说,一千万着实是个令人震惊的数字。 “所有游客都要渡船去岛上,所以轮渡来来往往非常 繁忙,”索菲(Sophie)说道, “如果您居住在岛上,可搭 乘私人船只进城,那么这段旅程会比较清静舒适。” > 49


GUL ANGYU

Once you’re on the island, it’s easy to understand the fascination. It’s especially green here, with bougainvillea, Xiamen’s city flower, and papaya trees surrounding cobbled stoned walkways. Buildings poke up from the lush green flora, pastel in colour and colonial in appearance. Just over 20,000 people call this tiny island home and live in houses built centuries ago. It was after the Opium War in 1842 that over 13 countries, including Great Britain, the USA, France and Japan, established consulates, churches and hospitals on Gulangyu, some of which are still standing today. The Former US Consulate building, which is now privately owned and can’t be entered but can be viewed from the gate, looks like a sprawling mansion that would easily blend into the upmarket Hamptons of New York. Red brick is paired with towering white columns at the entrance and homely panelled windows. As you weave your way through the island – if you’re not keen on walking you can buy a ticket for the mini battery-operated shuttles that run on a timetable – you’ll be able to trace architectural styles that have been adopted from around the world. You’ll even find contrasting styles from two different continents in the one building. Hai Tian Tang Gou Mansion is a perfect example of this. The building is a marriage of Eastern and Western architecture. Its structure brings to mind a European coastal mansion, while the roof is typically Oriental in style with ornate dragons sitting on the turned-up curved corners. “The island is very international,” Sophie says. “People from all around the world have called this little island home throughout history and left their mark. It’s very rare to find that anywhere else in the world.”

SOUND OF MUSIC Another rarity on Gulangyu Island is its Piano Museum. Music is a big part of the island’s history, and many international pianists live or train on Gulangyu. The origin of the island’s name also has musical connotations. It comes from the natural sounds the ocean makes when the waves crash on the shore. “When it’s high tide, you can hear this repetitive ‘dum, dum, dum,’” Sophie says. “It sounds like the beating of a drum. ‘Gu’ means drum and ‘lang’ means waves.” The Piano Museum is home to the world’s largest collection of pianos. More than 84 pianos were donated to the island, a lot of which came from the personal collection of Chinese pianist Hu Youyi. The oldest is square in shape and dates back to 1801. >

GULANGYU

“PEOPLE FROM ALL AROUND THE WORLD HAVE CALLED THIS LITTLE ISLAND HOME THROUGHOUT HISTORY AND LEFT THEIR MARK” 上船几分钟后,您会很快发现自己在渐渐地远离城市 喧嚣,摆脱了汽车嘀嘀的鸣笛声,不再有自行车从身边呼 啸而过,也不会听到游客用扩音器讲话。我们的导游苏菲 称呼那些仍然居住在岛上的人为“岛民”。让导游配带扩 音器,互相嚷嚷,大声讲话,比让那些吵闹的汽车在岛上 通行更为糟糕。

迷恋过去 来到岛上,您便会感受到人们对它的深情迷恋。岛上一片 绿色,厦门的市花——叶子花郁郁葱葱,番木瓜树围绕在 鹅卵石小道的两旁。在葱翠的绿色植物间,高楼大厦拔地 而起,色彩柔和,看上去颇有殖民时期的建筑风范。 小 岛 仅有14 , 0 0 0 多人,住 在 几百年 前 建 造 的房屋 中。1842年鸦片战争后,英国、美国、法国和日本等13个国 家在此建立了领事馆、教堂和医院,其中一些仍留存至今。 前美国领事馆大楼现为私人所有,不可入内,但可从门 外窥探一二。这是一座看上去犹如与美国高档住宅区汉普 顿融为一体的庞大豪宅,入口矗立着高耸的圆柱,镶框式 窗户简约大方,红砖与之完美搭配。 在岛上游览,如果您不喜欢步行,便可以买票乘坐电 动观光车,欣赏岛上来自世界各地的建筑风格。您甚至可 以在一栋建筑中找到来自两地的不同建筑元素。 海天堂构别墅就是一个很好的例子。它是东西方建筑 风格交融的结晶,其结构看起来像欧式沿海豪宅,而屋顶 弯角处饰有龙身,拥有典型的东方之美。 索菲说, “这是一座非常国际化的小岛,有史以来,世 界各地人民称这座小岛为家,并留下了他们的足迹。在世 界其它地方很少能找到这种绝佳之地。”

音乐之声 鼓浪屿上的另一珍品便是钢琴博物馆。音乐是岛屿历史 的重要组成部分,许多国际钢琴家曾在鼓浪屿生活或练习 音乐。 “鼓浪屿”这个名字的起源也与音乐有关——它来 源于海浪撞击海岸时海洋发出的自然之声。 索 菲 说 ,“ 潮 涨 水 涌 , 浪 击 礁 石 , 可 听 到‘dum,dum,dum’的声音,听起来酷似鼓声。 ‘鼓’ 代表鼓声, ‘浪’代表海浪。” 钢琴博物馆是世界上最大的钢琴藏地。这座小岛收到 超过84架钢琴的捐赠,其中很多都来自中国钢琴家胡友义 的个人收藏。最古老的钢琴呈方形,可追溯到1801年。克 莱门蒂(Clementi)是第一位制造钢琴以供个人使用的音 乐家。他在伦敦制造了Clementi & Co钢琴,对音乐做出 了巨大贡献。克莱门蒂后被埋葬在西敏寺(Westminster > Abbey),常被世人誉为“钢琴之父”。 51

在这里,您也会看到史上第一架来到中国的施坦威钢 琴以及二十世纪初从墨尔本而来的钢琴。如果您对古典 音乐充满激情,那么就必须把钢琴博物馆列入您在中国 的必到之地。如果对音乐没有那么热忱,那么下一个去 处——菽庄花园或许会让您大饱眼福。

神秘花园 菽庄花园建于1913年,曾是台湾名商林尔嘉的私人花园, 宁静且安逸。今天,它成为了岛上的一大亮点。从外向里 望去,看不到任何花园、湖泊或亭子的影子。只有走进园 内,才能真正欣赏到这座精心建造的花园之美。 花园有两大主要部分:面向大海的藏海园以及面向山 峰的补山园。藏海园内有四十四桥,这座桥是为庆祝林尔 嘉四十四岁生日而建。该桥探头入海,形成一个U形,然 后回归至花园的另一边。在这里,您可以听到海浪的撞击 声,也就是鼓浪屿的名字由来。 如果您能把目光从眼前那令人惊叹的汹涌大海上移 开,回头看一看这座小岛,便会发现它宛如一座世外桃 源,郁郁葱葱,富有自然之美。很难相信,在短短5分钟 内,您又能回到一个金光闪闪、车水马龙的城市里。为了 生 活 在自己 的天 堂 里,花 5 分 钟 乘 轮 渡 上下 班 也 心甘 情愿。

A Clementi & Co piano, it was crafted in London by Muzio Clementi, the first musician who made a piano for personal use. For his great contribution to music, he was buried in Westminster Abbey and is often considered the “Father of the Pianoforte.” You’ll also come across the first ever Steinway to make its way to China, and even an early 20th century piano from Melbourne. If you’re passionate about classical music, this has to be added to the bucket list of places to see in China.

SECRET GARDEN On the other hand, if your tastes are more for the outdoors, then Shuzhang Garden is definitely for you. Once privately owned, Shuzhang Garden was constructed in 1913 by a Taiwanese merchant called Lin Erjia as a tranquil oasis. Today, it is an island highlight. From the outside, you can’t see any of the gardens lakes or pavilions. It is only when you enter that you can truly appreciate the beauty of the carefully constructed garden. There are two main parts to the garden: Changhai, which faces the sea, and Bushan, which faces the hill. Within Changhai is Forty Four Bridge, built in celebration of Lin Erija’s 44th birthday. It extends all the way out to the ocean, making a U shape and coming back to another side of the garden. From here you can hear the crashing waves that give Gulangyu its name. If you can tear your gaze away from the stunning, raging sea in front of you and have a look back at the island, it looks like a lost paradise, wildly green and untouched. It’s hard to believe that in a matter of just five minutes you could be back in a shiny, whirring city. A five-minute ferry commute to work is a small price to pay to live in your own slice of paradise.

MIDDLE HOUSE SHANGHAI

If we had to choose a standout, homegrown hotel brand that’s impressed in the last decade, it’d be the House Collective. Beijing’s Opposite House was first to bring its unique, boutique style to mainland China, with yawning, green-tinted glass windows, pristine white rooms contrasting with earthy wood floors, and textured slate accent walls. Next came Chengdu’s Temple House, making a Qing dynasty courtyard seem sexy with moodily lit bars and lattice-screen detailing. Now Shanghai is getting the House treatment, at a five-star location in the commercial district by fashionable Nanjing Road West. Italian design geeks are likely already scrambling to book, as minimalist furniture designer and architect Piero Lissoni has headed the project – dressing the 111 rooms in clean silhouettes with black four-posters, black wooden floors, and starkly white sheets and walls. We’ll have to wait until opening to see whether the boldly monochromatic decor extends to the spa, though we do know it’s set to feature a sprawling indoor pool and state-of-the-art gym facilities – including a futuristic fat-burning HYPOXI room to keep high-flying guests feeling trim. They’ll probably want to pay a visit after sampling their way around The Middle House’s many dining options – besides free-flowing wine on a blossom-laden garden terrace, there will be three restaurants, including a cafe by New Yorker chef Gray Kunz, a chilled-out Italian, and a very-now Chinese option.

SHANGHAI EDITION

We can’t get enough of EDITION hotels. With branches in London, Miami Beach, New York – and, most recently, Sanya – this Marriott-owned glam brand, developed by former Studio 54 owner and boutique hotel guru Ian Schrager, manages to tick all the new-gen hotel boxes with its cutting-edge design, millennial-friendly fun and sense of place. Whether you’re wandering through the wood-panelled, velvet-lined environs of London’s Fitzrovia outpost, or the white-washed, blue-sea-views version in Miami, you always feel like you’re in the coolest spot in town. And no doubt The Shanghai EDITION will follow suit. A skyscraping showstopper of two separate towers and 10 levels of public space, it will be the new darling of Puxi when it opens its doors at the north-east corner of Nanjing Road East and Henan Road this summer. The location is prime, just five minutes’ walk from The Bund – so even if the 145 rooms didn’t look so slick (they’re rumoured, like the public spaces, to be dressed in wood, cream and brass), they’d probably still be permanently booked up. EDITION hotels always have food worth staying in for, and the Shanghai branch will be no different. The roster includes a Japanese restaurant on the 27th floor, overlooking the city; a Cantonese dining room; a whopping five bars; and, in true Schrager style, a nightclub.

While both are sure to be knockouts, the one that’s top of our wishlist is the Qianmen branch. Located in an atmospheric hutong quarter, it pairs classic Mandarin Oriental-style excess with an oldschool neighbourhood feel and killer sights aplenty – the Temple of Heaven, Tiananmen Square, the Forbidden City and Mao’s Mausoleum are a mere stroll away. Forget skyscrapers: the hotel will be dotted throughout the stonefronted, tiled-roofed buildings of Qianmen East Hutong Quarter alongside local homes, shops and restaurants, letting guests get a taste of traditional city life in these labyrinthine alleyways. But, for all its nods to the past, it’s not staid. Being Mandarin Oriental, you can still bet on an ace spa – with muscle-melting massages and a tranquil swimming pool – as well as a dessert shop stuffed with decadent, cream-layered cakes. And, a roof terrace on which to sip a glass of sunset fizz as the neon lights of the city blaze – a reminder of what century you’re really in. Watch this space: We’re almost just as excited about Mandarin Oriental Wangfujing, also opening this year (read more in our feature on page 78). Both opening 2018.

ROSEWOOD GUANGZHOU

Booming port city Guangzhou is already home to avant-garde architecture (see Zaha Hadid’s Opera House, the technicolour Canton Tower), tree-lined alleyways, scrummy Cantonese cuisine and a thriving shopping scene. So it’s about time that its hotels got suitably flashy too. Enter Rosewood Guangzhou: the cherry on the top of the city’s tallest building, the 530-metre CTF Finance Centre, it will occupy the 16 highest floors with 251 guestrooms (plus a number of to-buy residences, if you’ve got pockets deep enough). As you’d expect, it’s all about the views here – of the city, the Zhujiang River, and even Baiyunshan Scenic Area on clear days. And precisely because that panorama is so enthralling, Rosewood’s interiors have cleverly been kept low-key and calming – milky hues on linens and floors, steely greys, and flashes of gold in the extra-large bedrooms. There will be a spectacular, window-lined swimming pool – one of the world’s highest (after all, the building is one of the 10 tallest on the planet) – a sky bar on the 107th floor (the highest in mainland China), a double-decker spa and a whopping seven spots to eat, so if you don’t want to zip back down to earth for your entire stay, there’s no need. Though you should: that striking opera house is just a walk away.

Perched on holiday isle Sanya, home to blue waters, silky sands and palm trees, Atlantis isn’t just a hotel – it’s a full-on watery world.

Q&A

CONTINENTAL Co-owner ELVIS ABRAHANOWICZ Imagine if your corner deli, with all its locals and friendly owners, opened up a full-blown restaurant. That’s what the Continental Deli in Newtown is trying to achieve. The heart, the personality and the flavours of a specialty deli. continentaldelicatessen.com.au HV: What is the concept behind Continental? EA: We wanted to create a great neighbourhood restaurant. Somewhere for locals, and everyone else, to come in, eat, drink and have a good time. Our food offering for the deli is influenced by a traditional European-style deli. We wanted to have all the great deli produce – great charcuterie, cheeses, tinned fish, etc. – that you could pop in to buy for home also available to sit in and eat. We just wanted to create a great neighbourhood restaurant. Somewhere for locals and everyone else, to come in, eat drink and have a good time. HV: Tell us about the space and its influences. EA: The restaurant was actually originally a home in Newtown so it’s a pretty small space. These two things were pretty influential – we wanted to keep a really welcoming, familiar feel and we had to really think about how to put it all together to fit in the space. We chose natural materials and more traditional-style fittings to help create the sense that we had been there forever. We wanted people to feel comfortable and at home in the space immediately, like we were their favourite old deli right from the first day we opened.

Clockwise from this page: Mjølner’s plush interiors; One of Continental’s deli-inspired dishes; The signature Martini in a can

HV: What are the influences for the menu? EA: Some of the main influences are the great, gourmet produce you find in a traditional European-style deli. Sandwiches that utilise sliced meats like mortadella, great cheeses and all the amazing tinned seafood. We do our own canning on-site. We can everything from salted caramel, to seafood, to cocktails and even T-shirts. The influencing concept on the Bistro menu is that Old World-style bistro, traditional dishes that we love to eat.

Continental 餐厅 设想一下,位于街角的熟 食店与所有当地人和友好 的老板们合伙创立了一家 超级火的餐厅,融合一切 情感、特色和美味,这就 是位于新镇(New Town) 的Continental Deli想要 实现的目标。

Continental背后蕴藏着什 么理念? 我们想要创建一家顶级棒的 街坊餐厅,供当地人和其他 所有人吃喝玩乐。我们提供 的食物是受传统欧洲熟食风 格的启发,希望为食客奉上 所有一流的熟食产品,包括 腌肉、奶酪、罐头鱼等,方便 您顺路买回家享用,或坐下 来大快朵颐之后再走。

请跟我们谈谈餐厅的格局 及其特色? HV: What do you love about the Sydney food scene? 这家餐厅原本是新镇 EA: Sydney is our home. And Newtown particularly is (Newtown)一户人家的房 where most of us involved with the Deli live. Why not 屋,所以面积很小。关于餐 build a restaurant in the style of places that we would 厅内饰,有两项非常重要的 love to go to in our own backyards? The Sydney food 考虑:一,我们想保持一种 scene is changing really quickly.

MJØLNER

Q&A

Head Chef JOACHIM BORENIUS Co-owner SVEN ALMENNING Mjølner is closer to a dining room for Thor and Odin than your typical Sydney restaurant. Sophistication and decadence is combined with fine Scandinavian dishes, drinks and atmosphere. mjolner.com.au HV: What is the concept behind Mjølner? SA: We have tried to create an experience that’s more than the sum of its parts. We want our guests to feel as if they’re transported away to a different time and space and for them to be immersed into our experience. I know this is a bit weird, but please stay with me. Imagine that the Avengers are real. These superheroes exist and they’re here protecting earth against aliens, and supervillains. Amongst these, we find the Norse God of Thunder, Thor. He becomes homesick and decides to build a small “feasting hall” where he aims to recreate the merriment and festivities of Valhalla. He names this restaurant Mjølner, after his hammer, the source of much of his power. We’re not a Viking-themed restaurant. Instead, we take inspiration from Norse culture and mythology in our design and in how we create our dining and drinking experiences.

“WE WANT OUR GUESTS TO FEEL AS IF THEY ARE TRANSPORTED AWAY TO A DIFFERENT TIME AND SPACE” 72


SYDNEY

Mjølner

HV: What are the influences for the menu? SA: Our approach is more along the lines of: would Vikings eat bone marrow if they were around today? Of course! What about slow-cooked short ribs on the bone? Hell yeah! JB: The heart of the kitchen is based around a big rotisserie grill. We roast chickens, pork bellies, lamb shoulders and suckling pigs, to name a few things. The dishes are sized to feast together, generously sized and with a rustic finesse. The cuisine, to me, is quite rustic Scandinavian fare, but I don’t want to be bound by tradition. HV: How did you get involved in the kitchen? JB: I was born and raised in the very south-west tip of Sweden in a family of six. We had fruit trees and a little veggie patch in the garden where my parents grew everything. Food had a very important social function in our family and we grew up around that table. I spent the majority of my cooking career in fine-dining kitchens and have worked for both Heston Blumenthal and Thomas Keller. I’ve travelled the world and have really enjoyed the beneficial nature of my profession, which has led me to see many different cultures and cuisines. HV: How do you see Sydney’s food scene evolving? JB: I can draw many parallels between the dining scene here in Sydney and the one in Sweden. The roots of the oldschool European way are here in Australia and are a lot more influenced by the natural bounty of nature as well as being strongly influenced by our Asian population. >

BERT’S BAR AND BRASSERIE Executive Chef JORDAN TOFT

Q&A

The relaxed air of Sydney’s Northern Beaches meets the opulent style of a 1930s grand hotel dining room. Bert’s keeps things simple yet classic and lets the ingredients speak for themselves. merivale.com.au HV: What is the concept behind Bert’s? JT: We wanted to try and transport people to give the feeling of being on vacation. There’s an elegance to the space and its finishings that gives it the personality of an old world 1930s. When people walk through the door they see the marble benches and era furnishings and get a sense of classic and effortless dining, where the space and the food allow people to relax. The venue itself opens up into a few different styled rooms to suit how different customers want to dine.

“THERE’S AN ELEGANCE TO THE SPACE THAT GIVES IT THE PERSONALITY OF AN OLD-WORLD 1930S. PEOPLE GET A SENSE OF CLASSIC AND EFFORTLESS DINING”

HV: What can customers expect when they eat here? JT: We try to evoke a feeling of community for all diners. We’re on the Northern Beaches in Newport so we wanted to create a restaurant that felt like it’s been around for decades and has always been a part of the area, an era gone by. Being located where we are we get a great mix of returning locals, people popping in from Sydney as well as travellers stretching their legs outside of the city. HV: How did you get involved as a chef? JT: I’ve been cooking now for 21 years and it has always been my life. At 16 I moved to Sydney and started working in some of the top restaurants before I moved overseas and started working in Europe and across Spain and the US for four or five years before coming back to Sydney – my home. HV: What are the influences for the menu? JT: Produce-driven and simple is really the menu, but we also wanted it to have an Americana bar and grill feel. There’s no gas in the kitchen, all the dishes and meat are cooked with charcoal and wood. The menu isn’t overly masculine though; there are still a lot of soft touches. The menu is split between focusing on the beef, seafood and the raw bar and then the larder where you can get brioche bread and pate. We go for really unadorned food that reminds you of eating and holidaying near the water. HV: How do you see Sydney's food scene evolving? JT: I think there’s definitely a movement in Sydney where chefs are doing less. Things are becoming not as fussy and less is done to the food. Creativity is shown in a lot of different ways, whether it’s capturing the flavours and styles of our childhood or a holiday or recreating and reimagining those flavours. I’m more about the whole dining experience where less is more and guiding people through a long and relaxing meal. >

techniques. We wanted the flavour combinations to be very fun and strong and not trying to be too subtle like most Japanese restaurants. The menu’s flavours focus on umami where we don’t use any salt and instead use seaweed to flavour our dishes. The menu works for everyone, all ages and any background where they can find something new. HV: What are some of your favourite dishes? SC: We have a few different menus. There’s an a la carte menu, seven- and eight-course tasting menus, and share plates. A favourite is the Bonito pastrami with yuzu-soy, avruga caviar and brown butter. Another is the Blanca black bun, a steamed squid ink bao with crispy fried soft shell crab and house-made XO mayo.

Q&A

BLANCA Co-owner and chef SAM COLE Sam Cole and Tomi Björck have created a space and menu unlike anything in Sydney. Japanese and Mediterranean flavours served in a clean, stylish space combined with the chill atmosphere of Bondi have quickly made Blanca a Sydney favourite. blanca.com.au HV: How did you develop the concept for Blanca? SC: I met my business partner Tomi Björck back when we were both working at Quay and were surfing buddies. I was working overseas for eight years in Scandinavia, Finland, London with Heston Blumenthal as well as on yachts in the Mediterranean when we both made the decision to move back to Sydney at the same time and start something together. When we moved to Bondi we wanted to make sure we created something that wasn’t boring or something that Sydney already had. HV: What are the influences for the menu? SC: We ended up throwing around some ideas once we were both back in Sydney and created a menu that was a mix between Japanese and Mediterranean, which gave us a massive spectrum of flavours and textures that work well together. Our goal was to make some of the heavier Mediterranean dishes a lot lighter using Japanese 76

HV: Tell us about the design of the space. SC: We worked with local Bondi design firms for over six months developing our concept. We put in elements of both Japan and the Mediterranean like the white double rendered walls combined with the long, clean, straight lines. Our materials are all natural and unfinished like raw timber and marble and metal. Everything influences the concept. Old holiday photos, memories of restaurants we’ve been to, input from family and friends, and it all came together in the final design.

THE TRENDY RESTAURANTS

Beijing’s red-hot food scene is no secret – but now the latest wave of openings is pairing top-notch international cuisine with seriously sublime views. Take F Bistronome, which gazes across to Beijing’s robot-like CCTV Headquarters from the seventh floor of the China World Mall. It looks swanky with its floor-to-ceiling windows and mustard-yellow leather chairs, but here the Gallic dishes are truly homely – expect creamy gratin dauphinoise, fluffy souffle and tender Chateaubriand steak. Not feeling like French? In the same building – and with another wowza view – you’ll find Migas. This Spanish restaurant, bar and nightclub is a sequel to the popular Sanlitun original, and serves a full Iberian spread from flaky fresh fish dishes to truffle-laden delights. But you’d want to come here even if the food wasn’t this good – an open-air terrace is just the place for summer evening sundowners. Speaking of hot second helpings, foodies in-the-know are making their way to the new branch of Bottega at Xinyuanli, in the newly renovated Jin Shang building north of the Liangma River. Here the view is just as good inside – the NYC-style design features an open kitchen where you can watch chefs get to work, making pizzas to exacting Neapolitan standards. Silky pasta dishes, fresh salads and meat dishes appear on the menu, too. Finally, for the city’s coolest brunch, look no further than recently opened Australian spot Home Grounds. It’s your plate that’s Insta-worthy here; each dish eats like a rainbow, with edible petals bedecking banana pancakes, and cubes of kiwi and dragonfruit brightening yoghurt.

THE SIZZLING BARS

Beijing’s gone wild for cocktails – so get sipping. Start at sceney Equis lounge at the Four Seasons. This blinged-up maze of rooms may be new, but its structure is inspired by one of Beijing’s oldest features, its hutongs. Five distinct, dramatically lit zones – lounge, cellar, library, courtyard and VIP area – come with their own vibe, so no matter if you’re hankering for clubby or low-key, you’ll find a reason to people-watch over a Martini here. As for all you music geeks out there: look no further than moody piano and cocktail bar Good Bait in stylish Sanlitun. Its minimalist bricked wall decor and dim lighting is just the setting for sipping its namesake cocktail – made with champagne, grapefruit bitters, Aperol and Lillet Blanc – while soaking up tunes from the in-house musicians. Many of Beijing’s hutong bars are rapidly disappearing, but others are just relocating – head to Capital Spirits and The Distillery, a merger of two old hutong drinking holes that has now become Beijing’s first dedicated baijiu bar and distillery. Its new location, at 16 Xinsi Hutong, still has a whiff of the clandestine; but the offering is world-class, with artisan tipples from around the globe leading the menu. And cocktails here are just as good as the homemade hard stuff – don’t leave without draining a classic Sidecar or Old Fashioned. It’s not only about cocktails in this city. Beijing’s fallen head over heels for craft beer, and for the finest pours look no further than Beersmith Gastropub at Hotel Jen, the Shangri-La’s little-sister brand in the CBD at Guomao. It’s open until 2am, and good thing – you’ll need the time to work your way through the dozen or so seasonal beers and ales, in a space lined with tall copper tanks, pool tables and sports screens. >

THE SUPER-COOL HOTELS

Having thrown open its doors in the Embassy District at the end of last year, the Bulgari Beijing transports all who cross its threshold to a world of 1930s Italian glamour. From camel-hued leathery couches to coraltinted plush rugs, the furnishings are the finest from Italy (even the bathrooms feature striking black granite). It has a sizzling bar, clad in shimmering copper, from which flows Italian bites such as oozy burrata cheese with tomato or creamy tiramisu, washed down with delizioso spritzes. Make time for the stretch-out cabanas by the 25-metre pool – you can easily lose an afternoon pootling between sparkling aquamarine water and gold tile-lined hot tub. Wangfujing is famed for its eponymous, touristfavourite snack street – selling everything from starfish to centipede – but it’s about to be known for a whole other reason: the Mandarin Oriental Wangfujing. Due to open this year over the top two floors of the upmarket WF Central building – also home to a glam shopping mall (see below) – it will have 74 slick rooms, many overlooking the Forbidden City. Just like the city’s other Mandarin Oriental opening this year (see page 64), it’s set to have a prime rooftop drinking space, in this case a garden terrace-meets-cocktail bar. Or look north-west, to the Hyatt Regency Wangjing, launching this spring. A self-proclaimed “urban forest” concept – the hotel is sandwiched between two parks – you’re set to get some of the greenest room views in the CBD. The interiors, meanwhile, will be neutral-natural soothing; just the thing to chill you out after a draining, pavement-pounding day. Modern Chinese-themed newcomer Nuo draws on a major hotel trend: sense of place. That “Beijing feel” is in the little things – a lobby lounge showing off contemporary Chinese art – and the big things (its own ultra-tranquil Yuan Tea House, where you can sip brews sourced from its own plantations). Even the produce served in its restaurants – a light-flooded deli and a Cantonese spot, amongst others – comes from green farm cooperatives surrounding the capital.

Rock up as early as 7am to catch the morning rays illuminate the sparkly tiles as you perfect your breaststroke; or backstroke under the stars until as late as 10pm. When it comes to Beijing’s neighbourhoods, Sanlitun is peaking right now. That’s in part thanks to its cafe culture, so go for a cappuccino crawl – from the Moleskine Cafe to the Topwin Center bakeries, and new Scandi spot Gertz Danish Bakery. The latter’s an Instagram dream, with cool blue booths lined with wood, Edison bulb lighting and proper savoury loaves. Don’t miss the Danish-style open sandwiches (smorrebrod), laden with egg and shrimp. There’s always somewhere fresh to shop in Beijing. But it’s not everyday that something like WF Central lands – it boasts 150,000 square metres of space, much given over to new-to-China luxe international brands.

MOLLYDOOKER

Blazing a trail as a young yet cutting-edge winery, Mollydooker’s very modern cellar door sits atop Seaview Ride, giving views across its 114 acres of vineyards. With just a decade under their belt, the Mollydooker team have already won several awards, especially for their top range Velvet Glove and Carnival of Love shiraz. Wines are barrel-aged, in new or one-year-old barrels, and are also infused with nitrogen. The addition of the inert gas allows the winemakers to reduce the sulphite’s content. Drinkers are encouraged to do the “Mollydooker Shake” to release the nitrogen and bring the flavours to full force. Cellar door attendants will happily demonstrate the shake, offering tastings before and after so guests can experience the difference when nitrogen is released. Alongside tastings, Mollydooker encourages the community to visit for events like outdoor movies and festivals, with picnic baskets available for purchase.

D’ARENBERG CUBE

There’s nothing cookie cutter about the d’Arenberg cellar door. The multi-million-dollar “Cube” stands five stories high in the middle of a vineyard, complete with wine inhalation room, 360 immersive video, avant-garde Alternate Realities Museum, and a virtual fermenter. And that’s before you’ve even reached the tasting floor and degustation restaurant. Masterclass vertical tastings of the Dead Arm Shiraz, the brand’s flagship wine, take place on-site and provide access to six different vintages. Guests can also try their hand at blending from three > different barrels to create their very own wine.

PAXTON WINES

Just around the corner from d’Arenberg’s towering Cube is what might be described as the Paxton Wines container. The pop-up cellar door, housed in a shipping container, sits on the winery’s premium Jones Block shiraz vineyards. With seven different vineyards scattered throughout McLaren Vale, Paxton Wines has a vast range of varieties, from a rosé with bright fruity notes to an elegant Grenache, all produced through biodynamic winemaking. The Jones Block shiraz is well-known for its rich, complex fruit structures. It’s worth a trip out to the Landcross Farm, where the permanent cellar door occupies a beautifully restored 1850s sheep shearing shed and the manicured lawns often host events.

GEMTREE WINES

Committed to sustainable and generational winemaking, Gemtree Wines is a family-run winery producing some of the region’s best organic wines. With 328 acres of certified organic vineyards, Gemtree is well-known for its powerful wines, characterised by complex frameworks. It has just released its first 2016 Subterra Unearthed, a single vineyard Shiraz, aged underneath the vines. The barrels were literally buried in the soil, a technique inspired by the ancient Greek technique using amphoras. The connection to the land extends well beyond the barrels, with private walking tours of both the property’s vines and the wetlands onproperty available for visitors. The cellar door’s outdoor terrace is a great spot to spend an afternoon sampling wines and platters filled with regional produce.

THE BARN BISTRO

From the main street of McLaren Flats, the small township of McLaren Vale, The Barn Bistro’s nondescript cottage gives away no secrets. Walk inside and the heritage cottage opens up to an open-air restaurant sheltered by lanterns and grapevines. Originally a Coach Stop Way Station back in the 1800s, The Barn was transformed into an art gallery and restaurant in the 1970s and has long been known for its producedriven fare. Current owners Matt Bailey and Meg Carr haven’t let things slip; indeed, you’ll find locals and celebrities alike settling in for dinner under the vines. Matt’s walk-in wine cellar includes more than 400 different (mainly local) bottles, and a healthy selection of French champagne. Diners are encouraged to peruse the collection pre-dinner to pick something to drink. >

STAR OF GREECE

When it comes to seaside dining, the Star of Greece is one of Australia’s most well-known venues. Perched on the cliffs of Port Willunga, the white-washed dining room appears to sit almost on top of the 180-degree ocean views. Named after the three-mast shipwreck on the shore below, the restaurant focuses heavily on seafood, with fresh local produce filling up the menu. Blue swimmer crab fettuccine, market fish ceviche and Kangaroo Island salt and pepper squid sit alongside confit pork belly, wagyu beef fillet and fresh burrata salad. Ask for a window seat and split your time savouring the view and the food.

VICTORY HOTEL

While not right on the beach, the Victory Hotel’s hillside position gives it sweeping ocean views over Sellicks Beach. What appears to be a quintessential Australian pub dating back to 1858 hides its best assets below ground. Pop behind the bar and head down to the basement cellar, where you’ll find more than 8,000 different bottles of wine and one of the country’s best collections. There’s a heavy focus on local wines, but also an extensive range of iconic Australian red wines, including the fabled Wendouree Wines of the Clare > Valley, along with a large range of European wines.

THE CURRANT SHED

Another historic property that has been given a new lease on life is The Currant Shed. As the name suggests, this fine dining institution is housed in a century-old shed originally used to dry currants prior to export. These days, the space is simple. The corrugated walls and concrete floors keep things pared back, allowing the food to speak for itself. Beef tartare with seaweed wafers, slivers of perfectly pink tuna popping with finger lime, and a deconstructed apple meringue tartare make up just a few highlights.

WILLUNGA FARMERS MARKETS

Stalls piled high with freshly picked wildflowers, cartons overflowing with mushrooms of all shapes and sizes, freshly baked breads, still-warm soft cheeses, jars of honey and rustic homemade pies – wandering the weekly Willunga Farmers Market is a true taste of McLaren Vale’s bounty.

FORBIDDEN CITY

T

he Forbidden City, China’s greatest historical symbol, may be open to thousands of daily visitors, but there are still stories housed behind its walls that remain a mystery. Exploring this fortress can take hours. While most of the buildings and gates are free to be explored, work is ongoing to breathe the life of the 24 Emperors who called this place home back into its walls. It all started in 2005 – a 16-year project to restore and repair the Forbidden City to how it was before 1912. For 600 years, the Forbidden City was a symbol of power and intrigue, a holy place for the Emperor alone. Today it can be freely explored by foot. Or for those more interested in the nitty-gritty, 1.5 million artefacts have been collected, documented and are on display in the nearby Palace Museum. Stretching 961 metres from north to south, the Forbidden City is a masterclass of symmetry and flow. Once seen not only as the centre of China, but also the centre of the world, the most important buildings and gates of the city run along the central axis of Beijing from front to back, starting with the Meridian Gate and leading into the Hall of Supreme Harmony: the throne room and the most important structure in the city.

紫 禁 城

禁城是中国最伟大的 历史象征,每天接待 成千上万的游客,但其背后 深藏着的一些故事,至今 仍是未解之谜。想要探索 这座堡垒,至少要花上几 个小时。这里曾是历代24 位皇帝的皇宫,直至2005 年,这里启动了一项为期16 年的整修工程,使其恢复到 1912年前的模样。现在城 内的大部分建筑和宫门可 供自由出入,尽情观览,但 整修工程仍在继续进行中。 60 0年来,紫禁城一直 是权力和政治的象征,是

专为皇帝打造的圣地。今天, 人们可以自由出入,随意游 览。那些喜欢探究事实本 质的人,也可入内一探究竟。 附近的故宫博物院收藏了 150万件工艺品,同时也供 游客观赏。 紫禁城沿着一条南北向 的中轴线排列,总长961米, 不仅是中国的中心,也是世 界的中心。最重要的城楼 和城门沿北京中轴线从前 向后延伸,始于子午门,终 于太和殿—— 紫禁城的正 殿,也是北京城内最重要 的建筑。

TEMPLE OF HEAVEN

B

eijing will always be the bustling heart of China, but there are plenty of places where crowds are at a minimum and serenity reigns. Most of the ornate buildings in the huge 660-acre complex known as the Temple of Heaven served a purely religious function. Huge red doors studded with gold, intricate ceramic tiles, circular wooden pillars and delicately coloured beams make up most of the temples in Tiantan and echo the royal style of the Forbidden City just 3km away. Built between 1406 and 1420 for the Yongle Emperor, the circular complex represents the relationship between heaven and earth and was built to help the Emperor mediate between these two worlds. With so much religious significance, the Temple of Heaven offers a welcome dose of calm and relaxation from some of the other major sights in Beijing. Now it’s a site for recreation for locals, where you’ll see everything from ballroom dancing and tai chi to families with children trying out the Echo Wall, a phenomenon where a whisper can be heard from opposite sides of the wall. >

京永远是中国的心脏, 车水马龙,热闹繁华。 但这里也有许多地方人迹 罕至,宁静安详。在众多华 丽的建筑中,有一座占地 660英亩的建筑群,它就是 远近闻名、为宗教祭祀而 建的天坛。硃红色的大门 无比雄厚,上面镶着错综 复杂的金色瓷砖。天坛内 的大部分寺庙由圆形木柱 和彩色梁柱构成,其风格 与三公里之外的紫禁城的 皇家气派交相呼应。天坛 是一个圆形的建筑群,建于 1406年至1420年间,为永 乐皇帝而建,象征天圆地方, 是皇帝祭祀天地的场所。 天坛宗教意义浓厚,游 览完北京其他繁闹景点之 后来到这里,便会立刻感 到身心放松,安详平静。如 今,这里也成为了当地人的 游艺场所,他们在这里跳 交际舞,练太极拳,还有家 长带着孩子们来到回音壁 玩耍。在回音壁,一个人靠 着墙说话,无论声音多小, 墙对面的人都能听得清清 楚楚。 >

THE GREAT WALL OF CHINA

S

panning over 21,000km with sections older than 2,300 years, it’s no wonder the Great Wall of China is considered one of the world’s most historically significant sites. The Great Wall has spanned numerous eras of China’s history, with new sections added across four different dynasties to both prevent invasion and protect the Silk Road trade. Today, most of the wall that endures is found outside of Beijing, dating back to the Ming dynasty where it was built and reinforced to stretch from the ocean to the desert. The wall was generally fashioned from whatever materials were on hand, like tamped earth in the arid northern plains to brick and granite found in the mountains near Beijing. However, the reality is that vast tracts of wall have now been lost to the ravages of time. In the 50s and 80s, major restoration projects resurrected 8km of wall and 20 watchtowers in the Badaling and Mutianyu regions, where hundreds of millions of tourists have trudged up and down the gruelling stairs to experience just a small segment of one of man’s greatest achievements. > 98

万 里 长 城

国长城横跨21,000公 里,拥有2,300多年的 历史,被誉为世界上最具历 史意义的景点之一无可厚 非。长城历史悠久,在四个 不同朝代都有新建的部分, 主要为了抵御外敌入侵、保 护丝绸之路贸易。如今,大 部分留存下来的长城地段 是在北京以外的地方,这

o trip to Xi’an is complete without a visit to Han Yang Ling, the imperial necropolis on the city’s outskirts where thousands of Emperor Qin’s Terracotta Warriors stand silently. This army of terracotta statues is the pride of Xi’an, a testament to the city’s history and endurance. Standing guard in the emperor’s final resting place, each of these 8,000 uniquely crafted soldiers have distinct facial features, armour and even ethnic nuances and facial hair and can be found alongside 130 chariots and 670 horses. These life-size models represent the army that united China at the end of the Warring States Period (476–221 BC), and their discovery is considered one of the greatest archaeological finds in the world. It’s estimated the army took 40 years and over 700,000 labourers to complete. It lay hidden underground for 2,000 years, and wasn’t discovered until 1974, when local farmers digging a well made the discovery that would lead to decades of excavation. The site is more than just a museum. Excavation is ongoing, with new pits continually being restored and life being breathed back into more warriors daily. >

THE BUND

M

ost of China’s most significant sites date back thousands of years and across numerous dynasties, but the Bund in Shanghai is a historical pup by comparison. Despite this, it represents an equally important and pivotal period in China’s history. The Bund is the Art Deco capital of the East and stands out compared to the usual red and gold temples strewn across the city. When Shanghai became one of the wealthiest trading cities in the world in the 1920s, it was quick to adopt the refined, geometric Art Deco style that was popular through Europe to celebrate it’s new found riches. Businessman Sir Victor Sassoon established Art Deco as the defining style of Shanghai when he unveiled the Cathay Hotel (now the Peace Hotel) in 1929. Fortunately for us, most of these hotels, banks, apartments and offices are still standing and are conveniently located in one long strip along the Bund. Today these buildings remain some of the most luxurious sites in the city and are home to everything from high-end restaurants like Three on the Bund to luxury accommodation like the Waldorf Astoria, all lovingly embracing their Art Deco heritage.

国大部分的重要景点 历史悠久,可追溯到 几千年前,跨 越了无数朝 代。相比较而言,上海外滩 算是个新生儿,但它也称得 上是中国历史上一段关键时 期的真实写照。外滩是东方 装饰艺术之都,与上海红色 和金色寺庙相比显得格外 突出,更加引人注目。20世 纪20年代,上海成为世界上 最富裕的贸易城市之一,外 滩很快便采用欧洲流行的 精致几何装饰风格,以庆祝 它收获的新财富。 19 2 9 年,已 故 上 海 首 富维克多·沙 逊(Victo r S a s s o o n)的 华 懋 饭 店 (现在的和平饭店)在上海 开业,他把装饰艺术派变成 了上海的标志性建筑风格。 幸运的是,这种风格的酒 店、银行、公寓和办公室等 留存至今,我们还可以在外 滩一带看到。今天,这类建 筑仍然是上海最豪华的建 筑,其中包括外滩三号、华 尔道夫等高级餐厅和酒店。

HISTORIC XI’AN

X

i’an helped usher in the Ming dynasty, thanks in part to the words of wisdom of sage and hermit Zhu Sheng. Emperor Zhu Yuanzhang was advised to build a highly fortified 12-metre wall around the ancient capital and end of the Silk Road to protect and establish his new empire. The wall has gone through many rebuilds and iterations since 1368, but still stands strong, encompassing historic Xi’an. The city has well and truly expanded beyond its walls with skyscrapers towering just outside, but enclosed remains a city rooted in a long and complex past. At the centre of the city is the Ming Dynasty Bell Tower, the bestpreserved bell tower in China. Standing at 36 metres and built in 1384, the tower provided an early warning of attack as well as sounding in a new day. The other beating heart of Xi’an is the Drum Tower, built in 1380. Here, in contrast to the Bell Tower, a drum was stricken at the end of each day.

unkeld is an unlikely gourmet destination. This hamlet, 260km west of Melbourne, lies on the flat, volcanic plains of Victoria’s Western District, better known as one of Australia’s premier pastoral regions for sheep and wheat than for fine dining. Save for its spectacular views of sandstone monoliths Mount Sturgeon and Mount Abrupt, which jut out of the landscape on the southern edge of the Grampians National Park, Dunkeld would be a typical Victorian country town with a single commercial street catering to its 678 residents. The town’s transformation into one of Australia’s foremost regional retreats can be credited to Alan Myers, a local butcher’s son. A gifted student, Myers won a series of academic awards including a Rhodes Scholarship on his way to becoming one of the country’s leading barristers. At Oxford University, he developed a passion for fine wine and his success as both a lawyer and a savvy investor helped him amass one of the world’s largest private collections of Bordeaux and Burgundy wine. Myers never forgot his roots and in 1996 bought the social hub of Dunkeld, the Royal Mail Hotel, which first opened as a bluestone inn in 1855. After a year-long renovation it re-opened the following year with a curved pale green Art Deco style facade and an outdoor saltwater swimming pool. The hotel can host up to 120 guests with accommodations ranging from suites to bluestone cottages and a restored homestead, which sleeps up to 11 guests. A good part of Myers’ 26,000-bottle wine collection is cellared

HOT PLATES

Along with its encyclopaedic wine list that encompasses all corners of the globe, the Royal Mail’s dining rooms have earned a reputation for impeccably crafted, locally sourced fare. In the years since, the Royal Mail Hotel has earned a string of awards while their farm-to-table philosophy has evolved to include the largest kitchen garden in the Southern Hemisphere and livestock reared exclusively for its tables. “We wanted to create the most Australian restaurant in Australia,” says British-born executive chef Robin Wickens of his signature restaurant, Wickens, which opened in 2017, five years into his stint at the Royal Mail Hotel. There are few dining rooms in the country more attractive than Wickens, which boasts a panorama of a eucalypt valley and the twin peaks of Mounts Sturgeon and Abrupt framed through floor-to-ceiling windows. Wickens, who arrived in Australia from Southampton 18 years ago, places great emphasis on the freshness of the local produce, the bulk of which is picked daily from the Royal Mail Hotel’s nine acres of organic garden, orchards and olive groves. At the beginning of each week, the chef surveys the gardens and writes his menu accordingly. The range of dishes is constantly changing and evolving. “It’s like free jazz. Some restaurants can become like a rehearsed play, but we’re like an improv group.” Signature dishes were also absent at Wickens’ >

TOUGH CHOICES

Diners at Wickens can choose either five or eightcourse degustation menus priced at $145 and $185 respectively. Vegetarian options are available, with diners free to choose wine from a 2,300-bottle wine list that includes prized vintages from France’s Chateau Mouton Rothschild and Penfold’s Grange Hermitage from Australia. A passionate team of sommeliers are on hand to assist, or diners can simplify matters by ordering pre-selected series of wines matched to the menu in three categories and price points, from $145 for a “cellar” selection or exclusively Australian or French wines at $155 and $250 respectively. Higher View chose the eight-course menu and cellar wine match during a visit to Wickens dining room.

Diners at the Royal Mail Hotel also have the choice of the more casual Parker Street Project, which is also overseen by Chef Wickens. Parker Street Project, which is open for breakfast, lunch and dinner, focuses on larger plates, which are designed for sharing. Again, the freshness of the produce shines through with dishes such as a deliciously tender slow-cooked beef brisket with a bourbon whisky glaze and fresh organic berries and a decadent French toast from the breakfast menu, which features a succulent slab of thick cut local bacon. Lunch and dinner offers a six-course ‘Feed Me’ menu that can be tailored to guests’ tastes and dietary requirements. “Apart from serving delicious food, the idea was to develop more aspects of the food-and-beverage experience to encourage guests to stay longer, enjoy the outback setting and relax.” The Royal Mail Hotel’s wine collection is clearly one of its drawcards. From Tuesday to Sunday, hotel guests can join cellar tours led by sommelier manager, Matthew Lance, who previously developed the wine list at Beijing’s Shangri-La hotel. “When we did our first stocktake, we had to write off some wines.

RURAL ESTATE

If one thing compels guests to stay longer, it’s the scenery and serenity of the property’s rural setting. Encounters with eastern grey kangaroos on bushwalking tracks are common. The Royal Mail Hotel also hosts captive breeding programs for endangered Australian animals such as eastern and tiger quolls (a marsupial cat), long-nosed potaroos (a marsupial rat, more closely related to kangaroos) and squirrel gliders (a bushy tailed possum that can glide up to 70 metres between trees). Wildlife feeding tours are held each day from 4:30pm, Monday to Saturday. Daily kitchen garden tours led by either Chef Wickens or head gardener Michelle Shanahan are another unique experience at the Royal Mail Hotel. As a task force of white ducks patrols the two acres of the main garden as organic pest control, guests are led through the various crops, which provide 85% of fresh produce across both the Royal Mail Hotel’s restaurants. “Avocados are two years away, ”Wickens says, “but the whole process will take seven years.” Shanahan oversees 400 varieties of seeds, with each crop planned a year in advance. Although Wickens’ fruit and vegetables are entirely sourced from its gardens, ingredients such as tropical fruit make occasional appearances at Parker Street Project. Shanahan hopes to raise bananas for the first time in 2018. It’s clear that, for Wickens, the kitchen garden is the heart and soul of the Royal Mail Hotel and its restaurants, which are guided by whichever crop is freshest and bountiful. One of the greatest appeals of the Royal Mail Hotel is that each return visit will be met with an entirely different range of dishes as well as wines. “It’s a very unique way of running a kitchen,” Wickens says. “Things are always changing. We want people to be surprised, but sometimes chefs can try to be too clever. First and foremost, the food has to be delicious.” 108

24小时游遍青岛

24 HOURS IN... Qingdao Only have one day to spend exploring Qingdao? Don’t miss any of the must-see attractions with this guide to a perfect day in the coastal city.

如果您只有一天的时间探索青岛这座美丽的沿海城市,那么下面这一指南将为 您奉上各大必到景点,助您在青岛度过完美精彩的一天。

110


QINGDAO

7am

Start the day right with a relaxing walk around May Fourth Square. The crowds don’t pick up around the landmark till later in the morning, so it’s the perfect time to visit the site and take in its enormity. The giant May Wind sculpture is hard to miss. It’s bright red, 100 metres tall and in stark contrast to the rest of the city. Sitting on the city’s shoreline, it’s also a great starting point for a coastal walk.

8am

Make your way east for a casual stroll, where you can stop at one of the many cafes along the way for the coffee. After about 40 minutes you’ll hit Qingdao No.1 Bathing Beach. Here, you can go for a morning dip or just take in the calming sounds of the ocean. If you walk west then you’ll hit the Qingdao Olympic Sailing Center, which was built for the 2008 Beijing Olympics. From here you could book a morning boat ride along Fushansuo > Wan, or try your hand at sailing.

早晨7点

早晨8点

新的一天,从五四广场休闲漫步开始。只有到了临 近中午的时候,大多数人才会来这里活动,所以清 晨是欣赏此地雄伟壮观、感受其沉重历史气息的 绝佳时机。来到这里,百米喷泉不容错过。它通体 呈鲜红色,高达100米,与城市形成鲜明对比。在城市 海岸线上坐坐,以此开启海边漫步之旅,也是不错的 选择。

如果您向东行进,途中会路过很多咖啡厅,您可以停 下来喝上一杯,稍作休息。步行约40分钟后,您便来 到青岛第一海水浴场。在这里,您可以来个晨浴,也 可以只是静静地感受悦耳的海水声。如果向西走,便 会到达青岛奥林匹克帆船中心,这是为2008年北京 奥运会量身打造的。在这里,您可以乘船游览浮山 湾,也可以尝试一下帆船运动。 > 111


QINGDAO

11am

Xiaoyushan Park offers some of the best views of Qingdao and it’s only a short walk from No.1 Bathing Beach. The park itself sits at an elevation of about 60 metres, but it’s even higher if you climb the stairs to the top of the ancient towers. To reach the towers you’ll have to walk through the 2.5-hectare garden, which is filled with a range of local and exotic flowers. The most impressive tower is Lan Cao Ge Tower. From the top of this three-storey octagonal structure you can see all the way out to Lu Xun Park, Zhanqiao Pier and Little Qingdao Island.

1pm

In the shape of a qin (a stringed instrument) jutting into Qingdao Bay, Little Qingdao was connected to the mainland in the 1940s by a foot bridge. The Germans built a light house on the isle in the 1900s, and since there isn’t much else on the island, it has become the main attraction. It’s the perfect spot to watch the city buzz while you kick back and relax.

早晨11点 小鱼山公园离第一海水浴场只有几分钟路程。登上小鱼山,俯 瞰青岛市,无限美景尽收眼底。公园海拔仅有60米,但如果您 登上古塔,便会发现它不止60米之高。到达塔楼必经一座2.5 公顷的花园,里面的鲜花竞相开放,飘香四溢。最让人印象深 刻的塔楼当属这座三层之高的“览潮阁”了,其采用八角结构 设计,站在上面可远观鲁迅公园、栈桥码头和小青岛公园。

下午1点 Clockwise from top: View of Old Town and Qingdao Bay from Xiaoyushan Park; St. Michael’s Cathedral; Qingdao’s iconic brew, Tsingtao; Old German guesthouse at No.1 Bathing Beach; Cherry blossoms in bloom; Lighthouse on Little Qingdao

112

小青岛呈古琴状(一种弦乐器),一直延伸至青岛湾。20世纪 40年代修建堤坝与陆地相连,成为陆连岛。20世纪,德国人 在岛上修建了一座灯塔,由于岛上没有很多其他的建筑,所以 该灯塔成了最显眼的景致。这里堪称绝佳之地,您可感受城 市的繁闹喧嚣,也可享受海边的宁静安逸。


QINGDAO

“青岛的历史 建 筑 如同其他 欧 洲 租 界 城 市 的 建 筑 一 样 ,具 有 哥 特式、罗马式和装饰派艺术风格, 所 有这 些 风 格 都 是 从 其他 文化 借鉴而来的”

下午2点 青岛的历史建筑如同其他欧洲租界城市的建筑一样,具有哥 特式、罗马式和装饰派艺术风格,所有这些风格都是从其他文 化借鉴而来的。圣弥厄尔教堂就是一个很好的例子,该天主 教堂由德国人建造,1934年竣工。有趣的是,文革时期,两个 尖塔上方的十字架曾被锯下深埋。2005年,市政工人在离教 堂不远处的龙山路修理地下水管时,偶然发现了这两个被埋 葬的十字架。如今,它们被保存在北耳堂。

下午4点

2pm

Like other European concession cities, Qingdao’s historical buildings can often reflect Gothic, Roman and Art Deco styles of architecture, all of which were adopted from other cultures. A great example of this is St Michael’s Cathedral. The Germans completed the Catholic church in 1934. An interesting fact is that the original crosses that topped the two steeples were once removed and buried. In 2005, city workers repairing water pipes on Longshan Road, not far from the cathedral, accidentally found them. They’re now stored in the north transept.

如果您去青岛,就一定得尝尝著名的青岛啤酒。要喝青岛啤 酒,就去青岛啤酒博物馆。青岛啤酒是中国最具代表性的啤 酒,在该博物馆,您能看到它最原始的酿造过程。这里还有老 照片、酿酒设备、统计资料等供您观看。除此之外,您还可以 一窥现代工厂生产线。啤酒花的香味弥漫整个博物馆,幸运 的是,途经的各种啤酒,您都大可开怀品尝。 >

4pm

If you’re going to visit Qingdao then you have to try its famous Tsingtao beer, and there’s no better place to do it than at the Tsingtao Beer Museum. It’s here that you’ll see the original and still-operating brewery of China’s most iconic beer. On view are old photos, preserved brewery equipment and statistics. You’ll also get a look at the modern factory line. The aroma of hops is everywhere, and thankfully you’ll get to sample brews along the way. > 113


QINGDAO

“Like other European concession cities, Qingdao’s historical buildings can often reflect Gothic, Roman and Art Deco styles of architecture”

114


QINGDAO

6pm

Sunset is best spent at Zhongshan Park. Sitting in the foreground of Taiping Mountain, the park is the largest and oldest in the city. It faces the sea in the south and is surrounded by mountains in the three other directions. There are more than 100,000 plants from at least 360 species in the park. There is also Cherry Blossom Road, just opposite the entrance. More than 20,000 cherry trees transplanted from Japan decades ago are growing along the 600-metre-long road. From mid-April, the cherry trees are in full bloom and are considered one of the most spectacular sights the city has to offer.

下午6点 到了日落时分,就去中山公园吧!该公园东傍太平山,是全市 最大、最古老的公园。它三面环山,南向大海,内有100,000多 种植物和360余种植物群。大门正对一条长600米的樱花路, 樱花树达20,000多棵,全都是几十年前从日本进口而来的。四 月中旬开始,樱花便堆满树枝,争芳斗艳,成为这座城市最壮 观的景致之一。

下午8点半 如果您只打算在青岛住一晚,那么就应该入住青岛最好的酒 店——香格里拉酒店。这里设有餐厅香宫,如果您想品尝淮扬 菜、粤菜、鲁菜,那么来这里算是来对了。如果您想吃海鲜,那 么青岛作为沿海城市,菜单上自然也满是新鲜海味。临睡之 前,记得去大堂小酌一杯。游览青岛一天后回到酒店,看到套 房里的豪华特大床,顿时让您心感宽慰!

8pm

If you’re going to spend just one night in Qingdao, then you want to stay at the city’s best: Shangri-La Hotel. Here, you’ll also find Shang Palace. If you want to sample and savour Huaiyang, Cantonese and Shandong cuisine, this is the place to be. Being a coastal city, the menu also boasts a large variety of fresh seafood. For a nightcap, head to the Lobby Lounge. After a day packed with discovering all Qingdao has to offer, you’ll be relieved to see a plush king-size bed in your suite awaiting you.

Clockwise from top: Zhanqiao Pier at sunset; Qingdao specialises in cooking up locally caught seafood; View of the city at dusk

TRIPLE STRENGTH

German powerhouse A. Lange & Söhne break continue to impress In the world of high-end watchmaking one of the great technical challenges is the split seconds – or rattrapante – chronograph, which allows you to time two events simultaneously. Turns out that a regular split-seconds isn’t enough of a challenge for highend watchmakers A. Lange & Söhne who, in 2004 released the Double Split, allowing the wearer to simultaneously time events up to 29 minutes and 59 seconds in length. This year Lange doubled (or should that be tripled) down with the Triple Split, the first ever watch that measures split seconds, minutes and hours. The A. Lange & Söhne Triple Split isn’t just incredible looking, it’s an incredible achievement. A. Lange & Söhne Triple Split, POA, alange-soehne.com

德国名表朗格(A.

AN ICON, REBORN

Jaeger-LeCoultre dive into their past Jaeger-LeCoultre’s SIHH line-up was dominated by the triumphant return of the Polaris, a vintage design reimagined as a complete collection of sporty-chic timepieces that offered everything from simple automatics to complex world timers. The shining halo in the collection is this pitch-perfect tribute to the first Polaris, originally released in 1965. The Polaris is a different kind of dive watch, one with an integrated mechanical alarm. This 2018 Memovox isn’t just simple reproduction of the past; it’s a subtle and sophisticated upgrade that honours the spirit and unmistakable style of the original. The case is complex and hand-finished, while the dial displays a mix of finishes, and refined applied markers. But one thing that is the same is the sound of that whirring alarm.

In addition to the many hours of power, the caliber BM12-1975A boasts extensive anti-magnetic silicon technology in the hairspring and escapement, ensuring that it will resist up to 1500 Gauss.

FREAK STYLE

Ulysse Nardin’s avant-garde icon gets an upgrade Seventeen years ago Ulysse Nardin released a bold, unconventional watch that was like nothing anyone had seen before. That watch was called the Freak. Rather than hide its mechanism away, the Freak used gears and wheels in an entirely new way – to tell the time. One end of the carousel escapement ‘arm’ indicates the minutes, while a rotating disc marks the minutes. But this novel time display isn’t the only surprise the latest model – the Freak Vision – has in store. The 45mm platinum and titanium cased watch is the first Freak to feature automatic winding, thanks to the cutting-edge “Grinder” winding system. Seventeen years on and the Freak is still strong.

STARRY EYED

Out-of-this-world watchmaking on show with Van Cleef & Arpels’ wrist-sized wonder The Maison of Van Cleef & Arpels may be better known for their jewellery and precious stones, but their watchmaking is as exceptional and unique, with a focus on telling time in a whimsical, poetic way. The diamond-set Lady Arpels Planétarium is no exception. While it does tell the time, thanks to the small shooting star at the outer edge of the aventurine dial, the real focus is giving the wearer an accurate model of the inner section of the solar system. Tiny models of Mercury, Venus and Earth revolve – in real time – around a golden sun, and Earth even has its own diamond moon, which makes its own 29.5-day revolution around our planet.

GREEN MACHINE Montblanc’s high-end chronograph has evergreen appeal

Depending on the light, the stunning green dial of this watch – with its sunray and fumé finishes – looks anywhere between emerald and pine green. This incredibly rich colour is wonderfully complemented by the off-white Arabic numerals and white pulsograph scale. You could be forgiven for thinking the dial is the hero of this watch, but the real star is the movement – an intricate hand-wound Minerva calibre, the M32.21 – an exceptionally classic and incredibly finished movement. The fact this winning combination is packaged up in a wrist-friendly 40mm steel case is the icing on the cake. But get in quick, as only 100 of these beauties are being made.

TWENTY-FIRST CENTURY HERITAGE Cartier’s icon gets a user-friendly upgrade

The original Cartier Santos, made for pioneering aviator Alberto Santos-Dumont, dates back to 1904, and claims the distinction of being the first modern wristwatch. The latest version manages to honour that rich history while still offering some innovative new features, notably the new QuickSwitch system, which allows anyone to easily change a strap in seconds, without the need for tools. There’s also the SmartLink, which gives you the same convenience with bracelet links – very welcome updates indeed. The Santos comes in medium and large sizes, in steel, pink and yellow gold cases, and – our favourite – a steel and yellow gold two-tone option. Cartier Santos de Cartier, from $8,750, cartier.com

Piaget prove that thin is in

If Piaget is known for one thing, it’s thin. The Geneva-based brand has spent decades shaving fractions of millimetres off their timepieces. This watch, the Altiplano Ultimate 910P, is the ultimate expression of this quest – a watch as technical as it is debonair. And while the dial looks the part, you need to take a look at the side view to see the true appeal of this Piaget. This Altiplano measures a mere 4.30mm high, making it the thinnest automatic watch ever made, and an engineering marvel. Piaget has managed this incredible feat by stripping away anything superfluous. Take, for example, the case back. To keep things as thin as possible, the case back also serves as the baseplate of the movement. The winding rotor has also been placed peripherally, so as not to interfere with that slender profile.

AROUND THE WORLD

Travel in style with these three timepieces

Montblanc’s latest 1858 collection is all about the spirit of adventure and exploration, so the choice to add a second time zone with the 1858 Geosphere makes perfect sense. The real appeal of this rugged travellers’ watch is the novel dual-hemisphere display on the dial. The Luminor Due, a dressier take on Panerai’s instantly recognisable diver, was originally released in 2016. This year the brand added a GMT complication to the larger 45mm model, which – combined with the elegant anthracite dial – adds a touch of first-class to the travel experience. One extra time zone isn’t enough for Jaeger-LeCoultre’s Polaris Chronograph WT, which allows you to tell the time anywhere on earth, at a glance. On top of that there’s a handy chronograph, and some serious heritage style.

COLOUR AND MOVEMENT Women’s watches put on a show

Cartier’s love of the panther is well-known, and it’s a recurring motif on the brand’s timepieces. But never quite like this. The Révélation d’une Panthère (one of the Masion’s top-end Metiers d’Art pieces) uses hundreds of tiny golden beads, suspended in a clear liquid, which trace out the distinctive lines of the big cat. Pure enchantment. Glashütte-based A. Lange & Söhne have a reputation for serious, sober designs. This new take on the 39mm Saxonia Thin shows off their playful side. The dial, made from aventurine glass, gets its rich blue hue from copper oxide, a material that also accounts for the embedded sparkles. It’s like wearing the night sky on your wrist. Audemars Piguet offered new versions of the Millenary this year, including this model, with an offset opal dial and “frosted gold” case, a sparkling, diamondlike finish achieved by using a tiny pneumatic hammer to create minuscule indentations in the precious pink gold case. A Polish mesh strap completes the look. Cartier Révélation d’une Panthère, POA , cartier.com; A.

Starting at the top Once the domain of super-rich speed demons, owning a Porsche just became more attainable – and drivable – with this suave SUV, reckons Susannah Guthrie. SPECS Price From $80,110 Engine 2.0-litre four-cylinder petrol Output 185kW/370Nm Transmission Seven-speed double-clutch Dimensions 4697mm (L), 2807mm (W), 1624mm (H) Weight 1770kg (DIN) 0 – 100km/h 6.7sec

The first thing to know before you get into a Porsche is that you’re probably pronouncing its name wrong. The friendly folks working for the German luxury carmaker are quick to correct you should you dare to utter “Poorsh” over the correct “Poorsh-ah”. It’s little details like pronunciation and bigger details like price that can sometimes make Porsche’s famously luxurious sports cars seem unattainable to mere mortals. But the Stuttgart-based manufacturer’s entry-level SUV, the Macan (pronounced “Mah-carn” for those who are interested) is here to remedy that image problem. It’s the most affordable Porsche on the market and, in terms of competitors, is in a class of its own, with even its starting price point more comparable to other carmaker’s kitted-out models. Still, for many buyers, the top-selling Macan, which made its debut in 2013, will be their first tentative step into the world of sports cars – a journey that’s as addictive as it is expensive. 126

Starting at a little over $80,000, the Macan is a roomy ride with an energetic engine that's capable of turning even the most banal outing into a zippy romp. Switching the car into sport mode, which provides a big boost to already responsive steering and braking, further enhances this experience. To really feel like you’re Mark Webber, hit the little button with the exhaust pipe symbol on it to activate a deeper, more satisfying grumble. On appearances alone, the Macan can’t be beat. It’s a real feat to take a body type usually associated with chunky durability and somehow make it sophisticated and streamlined. The Macan has a visual magnetism to it that you’ll have noticed if you’ve spotted one on a suburban street or bustling freeway. It stops traffic (pun intended). Indeed, the classic car feel is important to Porsche – a company that came to

prominence in the 1950s and whose innovative design quickly became synonymous with elegance. While the Macan’s compact SUV body is distinctly modern, there are old-school touches throughout. For starters, the ignition is an original insert-and-twist set-up, rather than the push-button style regularly favoured today. Music lovers will be happy to hear there’s a nice, prominent slot for CDs, along with the now-requisite SD card and USB slots. But thankfully there’s plenty of modernity packed into the Macan too: a great hold function for when you’re braking on steep hills, a reversing camera, front and rear sensors and lane departure warnings. Plenty of space, an economical engine and years of roadside assistance, all packaged into an instantly recognisable and prestigious package, make swallowing a hefty price tag that little bit sweeter. It also makes it Porsche’s most practical ‘family car’ options, but let’s face it – this is a car for the adults.

Greatness redefined 波尔多2015年份期酒——重新定义不凡

Nick Stock travels to Bordeaux to take a sip of their just-released 2015 wines.

The prestigious cellars of Bordeaux have just released their 2015 wines to the world, the spoils of one of the greatest recent vintages and one that has set about redefining the world’s greatest fine wine region. It also marks the end of a phase that saw Bordeaux wines soar in ripeness, in oak influence, and in price. A phase in which wines all started tasting a bit too similar, sacrificing the real character on which their great reputations were built, a thing the French famously call terroir. So what makes the 2015 Bordeaux so special? Well, the wines are more refined than they’ve been for some time and the ripeness of the vintage is coupled with a sense of freshness, a combination that hasn’t been seen this convincingly in Bordeaux for some time, perhaps ever. The result is that healthy, ripe grapes have delivered immense depth of flavour and richness of taste, while a sense of freshness (acidity and tannin in the mouth) creates drinkability now with a long ageing potential for collectors. The best of both worlds. It may sound strange for such an accomplished group of winemakers at the forefront of luxury in the world of wine, but Bordeaux winemakers headed off on a new path through the 1990s, a path cleared by outsiders. A sharp rise in American collector investment in Bordeaux wines led by the fast-rising influence of mainly US-based wine critics saw the Bordeaux Chateaux start to radically change their wine styles. Aided by winemaking consultants who developed techniques to bend the wines in the direction of this new critical taste, the wines become darker, bigger, riper and overdone to the point of caricature. The intertwined power of critics, consultants and consumers drove the style of the wines away from their traditional roots towards a more universal style where too much of everything was barely enough. Pricing hit

坐落于波尔多(BORDEAUX)的世界顶级酒 庄近期在全球范围内发售2015年份期酒,这 些期酒注定将要重新定义全 世界最伟大的 红酒产地,同时也标志着波尔多红酒在成熟 度、橡木影响和价格方面持续飘高的时代将 告一段落——不同红酒的口味变得越来越相 似,逐渐失去了各自引以为豪的地方特色,慢 慢丢掉了被法国人称之为红酒“风土”的意 韵时代。 那么波尔多2015年份期酒又为什么如此 特别呢?首先,这批期酒在成熟度上超过近 年的其它产品;其次,在成熟的同时,这批红 酒还蕴含着恰到好处的清新感,这对于近几 年的波尔多酒品来说可谓罕见,甚至绝无仅 有。由于选用了优质成熟的葡萄,成品酒的 味道极富深度,口感饱满,兼具新鲜气息(是 入口的脆爽酸度和成熟柔和的单宁发挥了作 用),却不乏经久不衰的陈年潜力,也因此成 为了红酒收藏家们的投资热点。 作为一个时刻占据奢华红酒界鳌头的名

REVIEWS stratospheric levels in the late 2000s and, like any overinflated market, it could not last forever. The Bordeaux bubble burst. The lunacy of wine style peaked with the 2009 vintage; pricing just held to support the powerful 2010 wines, and then a couple of difficult years ensued. Now, the 2015 vintage arrives with better-balanced wines and more sensible prices. Great wine in the current day is no longer about sheer size and impact. It’s about balance, freshness, authenticity and detail. The great thing about these 2015 Bordeaux wines is that the seam of quality extends from the very top Chateaux and First Growths deep down to the more humbly priced wines and appellations. It’s a great time to purchase Bordeaux wines, either as a first-time buyer or a collector re-entering the market. The greatest wines come from the greatest vineyards and, as can be seen in 2015 Bordeaux wines, they taste like the grapes from which they are made. It’s a bit like great people. You want to experience the real thing, not merely the clothing, the perfume and the makeup!

归市场的资深红酒收藏家,现在都是投资的绝佳时 机。最好的红酒一定产自最好的葡萄园,这句话说得 绝对没错——品尝这批波尔多2015年份期酒,您一定 会有品尝这世上品质最佳鲜果的身临其境之感。就像 是面对最优秀的人一样,您不只满足于欣赏对方的衣 着、妆容及香水品味,更希望能够深入了解对方的性 格和品质。

hen it comes to fine jewels, we want the most precious metals to be used to create pieces. Same goes with clothes – we’re always looking for garments made from pure fabrics that aren’t mixed with polyester. And when we dine, we expect chefs to use the freshest ingredients. That rule of thumb should also be applied to skincare products. We should accept nothing but the best when it comes to powerful, efficacious ingredients. That is why La Prairie have spent years developing ingredients from the world’s most precious materials – platinum, gold, caviar – to create opulent skincare products. Caviar craze La Prairie are innovators in the beauty industry and are often the first when it comes to introducing ingredients never thought to be used before, as was the case with caviar. “We pride ourselves on being a very cutting-edge company,” says Belinda Besant, La Prairie Australia’s regional training and events manager. “We were the first to come up with using caviar in skincare and launched our first caviar product in 1987.” The benefits of omega-3 are well-known. Unfortunately, every time you eat something the skin is the last place to be served the active ingredients from the food, so scientists wanted to deliver the potent active of caviar to the skin straight away. “The iconic blue caviar is very rich in omega-3, encourages healthy skin and healthy cell membranes and is also a potent antioxidant and rich in phospholipids,” Besant says. “It has a real firming effect on the skin.” Going platinum Just like the caviar, when La Prairie launched its first platinum product it did cause a stir. “It was a pretty audacious time to launch the world’s most expensive moisturiser,” Belinda says. Unfortunately, nobody could predict the Global Financial Crisis (except for the few fellas from The Big Short) hitting in 2008 – and especially not La Prairie. Alas, the product did sell out and was phenomenally successful. What makes it so unique and potent is that the platinum peptide, used as an anti-wrinkle and firming peptide, is surrounded by platinum. This coating of platinum protects the peptide, which is susceptible to enzymes in the skin. The little extra platinum bodyguard allows the peptide to work for longer in the skin and provides the user with effects that will continue to work days after application. Strike gold Gold is an age-old beauty secret. Cleopatra, the queen of Egypt, was an avid user of pure gold. It is believed she would put on a gold face mask every night before bed. “Gold helps to inhibit the enzyme that causes collagen and elastin degradation,” Belinda says. “It helps to maintain elasticity and firmness in the skin.” Similar to the platinum, there is a gold peptide that is then coated in gold. For those with sensitive skin, gold also acts as an anti-irritant. If it’s good enough for Cleopatra, then it’s good enough for us.

进军铂金 与鱼子 一样,当莱 珀 妮 推出第一 款 铂 金产品时,着实引起了不小的世界轰动。 贝琳达说:“推出世界上最昂贵的保湿 霜,实在可以称得上是一个敢为人先的 大胆举 措。”可惜,谁能预测到全球金 融危机会在2008年到来(除《大空头》 的少数人员外)?莱珀妮更是预料不到 会发生这种情况。让人意想不到的是, 这款产品却销售一空,取得惊人的成功。 它之所以如此独特、有效,是因为其拥 有的铂金胜肽成分——抗皱又紧肤。胜 肽被铂金包围着,铂金层保护胜肽不受 皮肤中酶的影响,从而让胜肽对皮肤产 生长久作用,使用之后有持久有效之感。 挖掘黄金 黄金是一个古老的美肤秘密。埃及女王 克莉奥帕特拉(Cleopatra)曾疯狂使 用纯黄金养肤,据传她每晚睡觉前都会 敷上黄金面膜。贝琳达说:“酶会导致 胶原蛋白和弹性蛋白降解,而黄金有抑 制酶的作用,有助于维持皮肤润弹、紧 致。”跟铂金一样,黄金内层也有胜肽。 对于敏感肤质的人来说,黄金也是一种 抗过敏良物。如果黄金对克莉奥帕特拉 女王都能起到美肤作用,那么对我们也 是一样。

ANNA QUAN 安娜

How did you get your start in the fashion industry? I went to design school in Sydney for four years and completed my studies, majoring in advanced tailoring. Throughout my course, I interned for designers such as Karla Spetic and Friedrich Gray, in addition to some brief experience at a fashion PR agency. Did any of them teach you some valuable life lessons? A key message I quickly learnt during this period of interning was the importance of confidence. To be successful in not only the industry, but also life in general, you have to be tenacious and always speak up. You’re known for having reinvented the white shirt. Where do you draw inspiration to continually push tailoring boundaries? I draw much of my inspiration from the surrounds of everyday life. I enjoy watching people in their elements, doing everyday activities. Seeing how they like to dress and how they move inspires me. The Anne long-sleeve shirt propelled the Anna Quan brand into the spotlight. Why do you believe it gained such popularity? I believe shirts are great as they are a fantastic wardrobe staple that can be worn both casually and formally. In regards to the success of the Anne shirt, it was effective in the fact that it was a very simple shirt with unexpected proportions. I guess it gained popularity because many people from different walks of life could style it their own way. What can we expect from this year’s collection at MBFWA? New things! That’s all I can say! Do you have a favourite piece from the collection? From my current collection, I love the top-stitched trench coat. It’s lightweight enough for the transeason and has the right amount of detail. Why do you think Australian fashion is so unique compared to the rest of the world? Australia is distinctive in the fact that we are an island nation at the bottom of the world that has a relatively young fashion history. This is advantageous in the sense that we’re not as constrained historically and socially compared to other nations in regards to fashion. There is less pressure, so to speak. What do you love about Australian women and how they dress? Australian women are relaxed in their dressing – especially due to our climate and way of life. There is an open easiness.

“I DRAW MUCH OF MY INSPIRATION FROM THE SURROUNDS OF EVERYDAY LIFE” What do you love about MBFWA? How important is it to the industry? A key benefit of MBFWA that we must recognise is the fact that it’s during the transeason. This allows Australian designers to more actively participate on the international circuit in terms of buying. It’s that one time of the year where we’re not in the opposite season with the rest of the world. What is next for the Anna Quan brand? I’m really excited about the brand expanding into China, with our collections stocked in Lane Crawford in Hong Kong and Shanghai. I’m looking forward moving the brand into other fashion capitals like Chengdu. Shop Anna Quan at annaquan.com

YEOJIN BAE 巴伊

How did you get your start in the fashion industry? I knew from a very young age that I wanted to be a fashion designer. My grandfather was a fashion designer in Korea and some of my earliest memories are attending art school at the age of four. I graduated from my formal fashion studies in 1992 and I’ve been working in a design room ever since.

您当初是如何涉足时尚领域的? 我当时在悉尼的一家设计学院学 习了4年并完成了相关课程,主修 高级裁剪方向。在上学期间,我还 在Karla Spetic、Friedrich Gray等 品牌做实习,同时也从一家时尚公 关公司收获了一些基础经验。 有哪些经历让您觉得受益匪浅吗? 我从这个实习经历中迅速感悟到 的一项关键信息便是——自信心 的重要性。想要在这个领域乃至 在整个生活中取得成功,就必须要 坚韧不拔,时刻为自己发声。 您因重新改造纯白衬衫而声名远 扬,那么您不断冲破裁剪禁锢的创 作灵感从何而来呢? 创作灵感来源于我生活中的方方 面面。我很享受观察每个人在他们 日常生活中的一举一动,看看他们 是如何打扮自己的,这也会激发我 的创作灵感。

您最喜爱的作品是什么? 在目前的创作成果中,我最喜爱以 明线缝合装饰的风衣外套——整 体非常轻薄,适合过渡季节,而且 细节感十足。 相比于世界其他地区,您为何认为 澳大利亚的风格是独一无二的? 澳大利亚是一个位处世界最南端 的岛屿国家,地理位置独特,时尚 历史也没有那么悠久。从这个意 义上来说,也算是澳大利亚的优势 所在。相比于其他国家的时尚领域, 我们不会更多地受限于历史和社会 因素,为自己发声的压力也就较小。 您喜欢澳大利亚女性穿着打扮中 的什么特点? 受我们的气候和生活方式的影响, 澳大利亚的女性对穿着打扮很随 意——舒适至上。

It has been 12 years since Yeojin Bae made its mark. Did you ever imagine the brand evolving into what it is today? Every season one collection flows into another and there is this continuous cycle that occurs. When I hit 10 years we celebrated and every year on top of this milestone is fantastic. The collection is about meeting the demands of our customers, focusing on dresses that become a part of celebrations in their lives. What can we expect from your latest collection? I love exploring tailored silhouettes on dresses that look really elegant yet timeless. There is a mixture of texture in lace and satin and a combination of prints from leopard to floral print. You are known for injecting bold colour into your designs. What colours will you be showcasing this season? I love colour and how it can transform how you look and feel. This season I have pieces in red, shades of pink as well as a bright yellow.

What makes a great runway show for you? Runways shows are all about collaboration within a team. From the stylists to models and make up artists, magic happens when you all share and align to one vision. What sets Australian designers apart from international designers? We are seasonally opposite from the main international fashion cities, however perhaps because of this, Australian brands are fantastic in creating transeasonal collections that suit our climate and work internationally as well. We find customers aren’t so seasonally driven; they have different needs, as they travel much more these days. Describe your personal style in three words. Tailored, simple and a touch of feminine Why is Mercedes Benz Fashion Week so important for Australian designers? This is an internationally recognised fashion event that brings buyers and press from all round the world. It’s a great opportunity for us to showcase our creations and latest collections. In what way has travel inspired your designs? I love travelling! My husband is French so we visit France and Europe every year. There’s this cool, effortless style in women that’s unique in cities like Paris and Italy that I really admire. I also really enjoy architecture and music that blends and creates a fusion of different styles. Shop Yeojin Bae at shop.yeojinbae.com

ALICE MCCALL 爱丽丝·麦考尔

Can you explain where your interest in fashion stems from? My mother was a designer so my love for fashion is really in the blood and quite innate to me. I have fond memories of us making clothes for my Barbie dolls together as a child. She has most definitely influenced me in becoming the designer I am today. Where do you draw inspiration from when designing? I find inspiration in everything I see and do – it’s constantly changing. I do, however, commonly look to great artists and vintage pieces for motivation and new ideas. Travelling has also always been a major source of inspiration, stimulating much of my designs. What is the best piece of advice that you have ever received and who was it from? The best advice stems from my mother. Through her unique and free-spirited attitude towards life and fashion, she taught me to develop my own personal style and identity using clothing and my own designs. The advice I always stick to and wish to pass on to my children is to never be afraid of taking risks and go with your intuition. You should always act on what you think will work with confidence.

>

Describe your personal style in three words. Instinctual, comfortable, Bohemian. What do you consider your greatest career achievement? There have been so many amazing moments in my career so I can’t pinpoint one as my greatest achievement. It’s really special and humbling when I see strong and beautiful women wearing my designs. It was not only an incredible moment for the brand but a real “pinch me” moment when Beyonce wore Alice McCall at the end of 2016. You were an international stylist for 10 years before the Alice McCall label was born. Do you believe your success as a designer is partly attributed to your background in styling? Yes, for sure. My time in London working as a stylist was an amazing experience and definitely a part of my success today. It taught me the concept of merchandising and ranging a collection. Through styling, I also had the opportunity to work with some amazing people along the way such as Kate Moss and Destiny’s Child. What does Australian style mean to you? There’s no doubt the brand is strongly influenced by the Australian climate and lifestyle. To me, Aussie style is laid-back and easy to wear everyday. Living in Australia, and more specifically in Sydney’s 138

beachside suburb Bronte, has definitely been a big factor in carving my design philosophy. It has also been an important factor in creating the brand’s iconic styles like our playsuits and mini-dresses. I believe Australian style really resonates with our international buyers and customers through the shorter hemlines and lighter fabrications; also showing that there’s a definite place in the international market for our brand. How important is MBFWA to the industry? MBFWA has become such a strong event and I love seeing other Aussie designers’ collections down the runway. It’s great because we get to showcase our Resort collection – the one collection that we are in line with all international brands. What exciting things are planned for Alice McCall in the year ahead? The brand is at a really exciting place right now! We just showcased our collection at NYFW in February for the first time on schedule and our international sales are really growing. We are continually aiming to expand our outreach of wholesale clients at both an Australian and international scale. With this comes the expansion of our brand recognition overseas too.

您对时尚领域的兴趣来源 于哪里? 我的母亲曾是一名设计师, 所以我对时尚领域的兴趣 真的是与生俱来的。我还记 得在我小的时候,我和她一 起给我的芭比娃娃做衣服。 如今我能成为一名设计师, 最大程度上是受我母亲的 影响。 您的设计灵感从何而来? 我见到的和我做的每一件 事都可以带给我灵感——这 是在不断变化的。不过,我 也经常去留意那些优秀设 计师的经典作品来寻找动 力和新思路。旅行也是主要 方式之一,我的很多设计灵 感都是来源于旅途中。 您曾收获的最好建议是什 么,来自于谁? 我曾收获的最好建议来自 于我的母亲。她对于生活和 时尚保持着与众不同且无 拘无束的态度,教会了我如 何运用服饰和自己的设计 来打造属于自己的风格和特 点。我一直铭记着她的这条 建议,也希望将其传给我的 下一代——永远不要畏惧承 担风险,跟着直觉走,时刻 保持十足的信心,把自己所 想的尽情展现出来。

于当时做造型师收获的经 验吗? 当然。我在伦敦做 造 型师 的那段时间是非常有收获 的,也从一定程度上造就了 我今 天的成 功,它教会 我 经营销售和产品分类方面 的概念。在那份工作中,我 也有机会与一些优秀的人 一起工作,比如凯特·摩丝 (Kate Moss)和真命天女 组合(Destiny’s Child)。 澳大利亚风格对您来说意 味着什么? 毫无疑问,澳大利亚气候和 生活方式对这个品牌带来了 很大的影响。对我来说,澳 式风格是很闲散的,方便每 日穿搭。生活在澳大利亚, 尤其是在悉尼的海边区域 勃朗特(Bronte),这样的 气候和生活方式极大地影 响着我的设计理念,这也成 为我们在打造品牌 标志性 风格时的一个重要考量, 例如我们的连身装和迷你 裙。我相信澳式 风格 在裙 摆高度和轻薄材质方面可

以引得国际买家和消费者 的共鸣,而且我们的品牌可 以在国际市场上占有一席 之地。 梅赛德斯-奔驰澳大利亚时 装周对这个时尚领域有多 重要? 梅赛德斯-奔驰澳大利亚时 装周已经成为一项盛大活 动,我很期待看到其他澳大 利亚设计师的作品。能在时 装周上展示我们与所有国 际品牌并驾齐驱的Resort 系列时装作品是一件非常 棒的事。 明年Alice McCall将有哪 些振奋人心的大动作? 这个品牌目前就正处于一 个非常振奋人心的阶段!我 们刚刚在二月份的纽约时 装周上首次展出了我们的系 列作品,国际销量也正迅速 上升。我们计划未来可以在 澳大利亚乃至国际范围内 扩张以批发为导向的市场, 同时扩大我们的品牌在海 外市场的认知度。

用三个词形容一下您的个人 风格? 天性、舒适、放荡不羁。 您认为事业上取得的最大 成功是? 我的工作中有非常多让人 振奋的瞬间,所以我也说不 清哪个才算是最大的成功。 当我看到那些漂亮的女性 身穿我设计的服饰时,一种 很 特别、很开心的感觉便 油然而生。2016年末,碧昂 丝(Beyonce)身穿Alice McCall服饰时,那不仅是 这个品牌迎来的不可思议 的时刻,对我自己而言也是 个无比激动的瞬间。 在创立Alice McCall品牌 之前,您是做了十年的国际 造型师。您认为您在设计方 面取得的成功一部分归功 139

MY HIGHER LIFE

Graeme Goldman

We chat to founder of Lion Brands and fanatical watch lover, Graeme Goldman, about collecting timepieces, travelling the world and always being on the lookout for his next watch.

我们对LION BRANDS创始人、狂热的手表迷格雷姆·高曼(GRAEME GOLDMAN)进行采访,探讨手表收藏、世界旅行以及永远期待收集的下一 款手表等话题。 Can you recall when your fascination for watches sparked? 可以讲述一下您当时是如何迷恋上手表的吗?

My father liked to play poker after work. One Sunday morning, he arrived home with the spoils of the game – a 1955-56 Omega Constellation Grand Luxe on an armadillo bracelet with a gold multi-faceted dial and arrow faced indices, the lavish burgundy leather box and ornate lettering all capturing my imagination. I was smitten and my passion for Swiss watches was sealed. I then begin visiting pawn shops and buying up second-hand pocket watches, and vintage Rolex pieces. 我的父亲喜欢在工作之余玩玩纸牌。一个周日 的早晨,他带回来了游戏的战利品——一条欧米 茄1955-56星座系列GRAND LUXE手表,配有 犰狳形状的表链、金色的多面表盘和箭头形状 的指针,华丽的深紫红色皮盒子上还有精美的刻 字,一切都满足我对手表的幻想。从此,我对瑞 士手表的热情便被点燃了。我开始去逛那些典当 行,购买二手怀表以及老式劳力士手表。

What is it about watches that resonates with you? 手表可以为您带来怎样的共鸣?

In a fast-moving world, watches allow us to take a step back and enjoy the simple pleasure of telling time. Watches can also tell a story, whether linking back to a luxury brand’s heritage or reminding us of a key personal milestone in our lives. From a sentimental perspective they can also become heirlooms, being passed from generation to generation. There are many watches in my collection that my sons will inherit and wear with great pride. 在这个迅速发展的时代,手表可以让我们放缓 脚步,感受报时那一刻最单纯的快乐。同时,手 表也可以向我们娓娓道来那些过去的故事,或回 顾奢华品牌的历史传统,或唤醒我们对生命中关 键的个人里程碑时刻的记忆。从情感的角度来说, 146

手表也可以当作传家宝,从一代传向下一代。我 曾收集过很多款手表,我的儿子们将来会骄傲地 继承和佩戴它们。

Do you have a favourite piece in your watch collection? 在您收集的手表中,有没有最喜爱的一款?

That’s a tough question. There are so many. The favourite piece in my collection is my next purchase. 这个问题很难回答,我喜爱的太多了。我最喜欢 的永远都是我将要收集的下一款手表!

What advice can you provide to someone who’s looking to purchase a luxury timepiece? 您对那些想要购买奢华手表的人有什么建议吗?

Be brave. Don’t automatically gravitate towards mainstream brands, choose a timepiece that offers superior craftsmanship and resonates with you. It may be that you purchase a timepiece to celebrate a personal milestone or a piece that is a talking point. At the end of the day, purchase a timepiece that you love the look of as you will look at it a great deal. 勇敢一点,不要自动受那些主流品牌的影响,应 该选择一款做工精细,并可以与之产生共鸣的手 表。在庆祝自己实现个人里程碑的时刻,或者在 生命中富有意义的一天,选购一款您最中意的手 表,这是非常棒的事情。

What goes into the process of sourcing brands for your impressive portfolio? 您在选购手表品牌的过程中,会看重哪些方面?

Like anything in life it boils down to relationships. We seek out independent brands that offer compelling alternatives to the mainstream brands and whose business principles and values are in sync with ours. 生活中,凡事都讲究“关系”二字。我们会侧重于 那些可以与主流品牌进行有力抗衡的独立品牌, 而且他们的营商原则和理念也需要与我们的是 一致的。

Do you prefer setting you watch inflight or upon arrival when travelling? 旅行中,您喜欢在飞机上就设置好当地时间还 是到达时再设定?

I prefer to set my watch before flight so that I can hit the ground running and try to adapt to local time as quickly as possible. After many years (and trips!) to Switzerland the jet lag can still take a toll but I try to counteract it by doing this and also taking advantage of the spectacular Swiss Alps scenery and walking on day one. 我喜欢在起飞前就设置好目的地的时间,这样 我可以在飞机着陆之后尽快适应当地的时间。虽 然有多年去瑞士旅行的经历,但我依然会受到时 差问题的影响。不过我在努力通过调整手表时 间这一方式来克服这个障碍,而且在到达的第一 天去瑞士阿尔卑斯山(SWISS ALPS)欣赏一下壮 丽的景色也是缓解时差难题的不错选择。

What can we expect from Lion Brands in the coming years? 未来,LION BRANDS将有哪些值得期待的动作?

Continuing to provide retailers and end consumers with a compelling portfolio of independent Swiss brands that provides much-needed choice in the marketplace. LION BRANDS将会继续提供手表零售服务,为 消费者推荐有竞争力的瑞士手表独立品牌,让他 们能有更多适合自己的选择。

What’s your top travel tip? 您的最佳旅行秘诀是?

Upon arrival, exercise, eat well and don’t go to sleep before local time. 着陆之后,做做运动,吃好喝好,等到当地的睡 眠时间再上床睡觉。
