然中国悠久的历史与现代化城市的飞速发展看似相悖,但 两者却又密切相关。以天津为例,虽然它是一座拥有1,400 多万人口的大型港口城市,您却仍然可以通过它的种种建筑来追 溯这座城市的独特历史。从前的租界区建筑向人们展示着20世 纪20、30年代的欧式建筑风格,是这座城市中最抢手的住宅区 之一。而南京亦是如此——如今的南京虽然可能无法与北京和上 海这些现代化的大都市相媲美,但它却小心翼翼地保存着其作 为明朝古都的大部分历史痕迹,诸多古代的寺庙、塔楼和坟墓在 整座城市中随处可见。漫步于城市之中,即可探索中国丰富悠久 的历史。

A

s contrasting as they may be, China’s rich history and fast-moving modern cities are seamlessly intertwined. Take Tianjin; while it’s a major port that’s home to more than 14 million people, you can still trace the city’s unique history through its architecture. The former concessions, some of the most sought-after real estate in the city, feature European designs from the 1920s and 30s. Nanjing is no different. Today, it may not be able to compete with the modernity of mega-cities Beijing and Shanghai, but instead it carefully preserves much of its history as the ancient capital of the Ming dynasty with old-world temples, towers and tombs found throughout. Here, you can discover China’s rich history without having to leave the city. HIGHER VIEW ISSUE 28

们总部的所在地——上海常以其前瞻性思维而闻名。上海 中心大厦正是一个完美的例子——作为建筑界的一项壮举, 这里拥有世界上最高的观景平台。虽然上海令人印象最为深刻的 可能是其灯火辉煌的高楼大厦,但这座巨型城市也有相对不为人 知的一面值得我们好好探索一番。静安区融合了上海的一切典型 特征——精品五星级酒店、奢华国际品牌和高档餐厅与可以追 溯至20世纪30年代的艺术装饰建筑以及古老的静安寺相邻为伴。 在静安区,您可以尽情享受一切奢华体验,同时也可以透过这里 的古老建筑来探索这座城市的独特历史。

O

ur hub city of Shanghai is often celebrated for its forward thinking. A perfect example of this is Shanghai Tower, an architectural feat that boasts the world’s tallest observation deck within a building. However, while the mega-city is best recognised for its shiny buildings, there’s another relatively unknown side to Shanghai that’s waiting to be explored. Jing’an District is a melting pot of all Shanghai represents. The fancy fivestar hotels, luxury international brands and swanky restaurants that make up the area sit right next to Jing’an Temple and Art Deco buildings that date back to the 1930s. You can indulge in all the luxuries Jing’an has to offer as well as uncover the city’s unique history through its architecture.

幕后故事

Behind the scenes

Take the stage This summer, Sydney’s iconic harbour is the stage for Handa Opera’s West Side Story. We chat to homegrown lead Alexander Lewis about taking on the iconic role.

亚历山大·路易斯(Alexander Lewis) 《西区故事》问与答 Did you always have your sights set on a career in musical theatre? They say the apple doesn’t fall far from the tree, and that is most certainly correct in my case! My father Michael Lewis and mother Patricia Price were both opera singers for Opera Australia and various other companies from around the world, so music was something I grew up surrounded by. It was a logical pathway to be an opera singer. But it wasn’t till high school back in Sydney that I got involved in musical theatre. Doing a lot of plays, that exposed me to the idea of a career 44

not just purely focused on classic opera. I’m in a fortunate position where my job involves the comfort of operatic elements with the fun of theatrical performance. It’s safe to say you have performed your fair share of iconic theatre pieces over the years. In your opinion, what makes a piece of work exceptional? Making a piece is by no means formulaic. There are no specific boxes that need to be checked. What you do need is a story that evolves and is relatable to the

您一直想成为一名职业歌剧演唱家吗? 俗 话 说 ,“ 有 其 父 必 有 其 子 ”,我 当 然 也 是 这 样 !我 的 父 亲 迈 克 尔·路 易 斯 (MICHAEL LEWIS)和母亲帕特丽夏·普莱 斯(PATRICIA PRICE)都是澳大利亚歌剧院 (OPERA AUSTRALIA)的歌剧演唱家,他们 和世界上许多其它公司都有合作,所以我可 以说是在音乐的熏陶之下长大的,这也是成 为一名歌剧演唱家的常规之路。但直到我回 到悉尼读高中,我才开始接触音乐剧,参与 很多音乐剧的演出,这让我开始有了将其作 为职业的想法,而不仅仅专注于经典歌剧。 我是幸运的,我的工作能够让我在感受歌剧

What has the preparation for West Side Story been like? It’s pretty extensive and will undoubtedly be a physical show. So, there will be a fair bit of work in the gym, conditioning the body to perform and avoid injury. Regarding vocal preparation, singing teachers are involved, while character development can be done on your own terms. We have a five-week rehearsal period leading into the production, allowing lots of time to get to know the cast and explore our characters. Do you look at ways of making characters your own, or do you prefer to leave them in their original form? I think you absolutely have to make a character your own – we all have our own life experiences to draw on to personalise things. In rehearsal, we discover how other actors have approached the scenes and it’s only then that you can decide on how you will approach your role, whether it be a traditional or fresh take.

audience. Characters need to be ones you can empathise and be pushed in specific emotional directions with. It’s interesting that successful pieces often reflect where we sit in history because they subtly narrate the world around us. Congratulations on being cast as lead male for West Side Story. Can you tell us about your character Tony? West Side Story is the great love story of Romeo and Juliet told through one of the most superior musical scores ever written. Director Francesca Zambello has worked in extraordinary music that I deeply relate to in terms of its style. As for Tony, well, he reflects that coming-of-age period in every person’s life. You see the raw emotion that comes with first love, tied in with the conflicts and vulnerable experiences of life. He falls for the girl on the “wrong side of the tracks”, demonstrating strength and commitment to fight for their love that is so very pure.

How does it feel knowing you’ll be performing surrounded by some of Australia’s most iconic landmarks? Taking one of the most iconic works of the 20th century out of the theatre and onto Opera Australia’s now-famous outdoor stage is a surreal experience. It’s an extraordinary setting at which to sit down and have a meal before seeing a show – you can really make a night of it. Do you have any pre-show rituals? I’m not necessarily superstitious as such. My physical and vocal warm-up routines are rather consistent, eating meals and working out at specific times before the show. I do try to avoid adopting superstitions because the more anxious you get, the harder it is to adapt to anything out of the ordinary that comes up. You obviously do a great deal of travelling for your job. Have you come across a top cure for jet lag? Jet lag is a tough one! I, as many singers do, travel with a humidifier, which recycles the moisture you breath out during a flight. It helps with avoiding fatigue because you stay more hydrated, which is something not only singers have to consider. A cheeky glass of red or two also helps the flight go by faster!

元素舒适性的同时也可以享受到戏剧表演 的乐趣。 可以肯定地说,多年来您参演了很多经典的 戏剧作品。在您看来,如何才能打造一部与 众不同的作品? 作品的创作绝不能公式化,没有特定选项可 供参考。您需要的是一个不断演变并与观 众相关联的故事。角色需要让人们产生共鸣, 并且引导人们产生特定的情感。有趣的是,成 功的作品经常反映出我们所处的历史位置, 因为它们巧妙地讲述了我们周边的世界。 恭喜您成为《西区故事》的男主角。能和我们 讲一讲您的角色托尼(TONY)吗? 《西区故事》讲述的是罗密欧和朱丽叶的 伟大 爱 情 故 事,通 过 有史 以 来 最 优 秀 的 乐谱进行演绎。导演弗兰切斯卡·赞贝罗 (FRANCESCA ZAMBELLO)曾经打造出非 凡的音乐作品,我和他的音乐风格非常相符。 至于托尼,他代表了每个人生命中的成年时 期。您将感受到由初恋带来的原始情感,与 冲突和脆弱的生活经历交织在一起。托尼与 女孩在“错误的轨迹”上相爱,展现出了为纯 洁爱情而战的力量与承诺。 《西区故事》是如何准备的? 它所涉及的内容相当广泛,无疑会是一场场 面激烈的演出。因此,我会在健身房做一些 训练,调节身体,避免受伤。至于声乐准备, 我会向声乐老师学习,并根据自身条件进行 角色的培养。在演出前我们有五周的排练时 间,这让我们有充足的时间来了解演员并探 索我们的角色。 您更喜欢以自己的方式演绎角色,还是倾向 于保留角色原来的样子? 我认为您必须把这个角色变成您自己的角 色——我们每个人都有各自的人生经历来增 添个性化的东西。在排练中,我们会发现其 他演员如何演绎场景,只有这样,您才能决 定该如何演绎您自己的角色,是以传统还是 全新的方式进行演绎。 当您知道您即将在澳大利亚最具标志性的地 标旁演出时,您感觉如何? 将20世纪最具代表性的作品之一带出剧院, 走上澳大利亚歌剧院著名的户外舞台是一种 梦幻般的体验。在观看演出前,可以坐下来 享用一顿丰盛的晚餐,尽情享受整个夜晚吧。 您有任何演出前的仪式吗? 我并不一定是迷信。我身体和嗓音的预热程 序相当一致,我会在演出前的特定时间吃饭 和训练。我确实试图避免迷信,因为越焦虑, 就越难以适应出现的任何不寻常的事情。 45

Sydney has especially great weather and everyone makes the most of it eating outdoors, like on Rosetta’s terrace. From where do you draw inspiration? I always look to Italy, as Rosetta is a classical Italian restaurant. I look at an ingredient and then where it’s used in Italy. I try to keep my food as close as possible to how it’d be served there. Must-try dish at Rosetta? Everyone loves our pasta. Each shape is handmade, so we control its flavour and texture. Our Torta di Verona is also a signature: layered mascarpone with pandoro, amaretto and marsala, finished with blueberries and toasted almonds. It really is delicious. 您对澳大利亚夏季的餐饮业有何看法? 虽 然冬 季 短 暂又不太 冷,但我 依然 期 待夏季 的 核 果 和 无花 果。每 个人都会 充分利用悉尼的好 天气,如 在户外用 餐,ROSETTA露台便是个不错选择。

朗姆酒之乐

Rum and fun While craft gin and whisky have been the toast of the town of late, three passionate Aussie blokes are going against the grain by opening a dedicated craft rum distillery and bar in Sydney. Located on Surry Hills’ Bourke Street, Brix Distillers brings the experience of crafting small batch rum to your bar stool with a casual dining menu to match. Curated by Colombian chef Ivan Sanchez (ex Bodega and Porteño), the menu draws on South American flavours designed to highlight the character and personality of rum. brixdistillers.com

虽 然手工精 酿 金 酒 和 威士忌在 近 来广受 大 众的 欢 迎,但 三个充 满 激 情 的 澳 大 利 亚 人 却 选 择 反 其 道 而 行 之,在 悉 尼 开了一 家 专 门 的 手工 精 酿 朗姆酒厂和酒吧。这间名为BRIX D I STI LLE RS的 酒吧坐落于萨利山(SURRY H I LL S)地区的伯克 街(BOURKE STREET),将小批量手工精酿朗姆 酒带进酒吧,以搭配这里供应的日常菜品,让宾 客收获无比惬意之感。在哥 伦比亚厨师伊凡·桑 切斯(IVAN SANCHE Z,此前曾在BODEGA及 PORTEÑO餐厅任职)的主理下,这里的菜品完美 借鉴了从美国南部而来的独特风味,旨在突出朗姆 酒的特点和个性。

您打造新菜品的灵感源自?我的灵感总 是源自意大利,因为ROSETTA是一家典 型的意式餐厅。看到一种食材后,我就 会想如果是在意大利会如何使用,并尽 量把打造的美食向意大利风格靠拢。 ROSETTA有什么不容错过的菜肴?人人 都爱我们的意大利面!各种形状的意面 都是手工制作的,所以我们可以控制味 道和质地。我们的TORTA DI VERONA 也是一道招牌菜,层层马斯卡彭起司佐 以黄金面包、芳津杏仁和玛莎拉,最后 加入蓝莓和烤杏仁,实在是太美味了! 47

虽然天津总是被来北京旅游的外国游客 看作一个短途旅游目的地,这里却非常值 得您好好探索一番。徜徉于天津昔日的九 处租界之中,从天津这座现代城市各式各 样的历史建筑寻找其过去的辉煌。 Tianjin is often enjoyed by foreign visitors as a short daytrip from Beijing. However, those who linger among its nine former concessions will discover a modern city with a wealth of historic architecture from an age of decadent glamour. Words and photography: Dave Tacon

TIANJIN

The interior of the St. Joseph Cathedral in the former French Concession

A BRIEF HISTORY

Tianjin was first settled during the Song dynasty (AD 960–1279), but the story of its former foreign concessions begins in the 19th century with a series of military defeats of Qing dynasty forces by combined British and French forces as Western powers sought to open China to trade, particularly the opium trade. The Peking Convention of 1860 forced the Qing to cede sovereignty of treaty ports to foreign powers. Tianjin, previously Romanised as Tientsin, was a prized port at the intersection of the Grand Canal and Peiho River (now known as the Hai River) with access to Beijing and Bohai Bay and, later, access to the Tangshan coal fields by rail. By 1902, Tianjin was the host to armed foreign enclaves operated by Great Britain, France, the United States, Japan, Germany, Russia, Italy, the Austro-Hungarian Empire and Belgium. Shanghai, on the other hand, had only a French Concession and an International Settlement. In 1947, the Italian Concession became the last foreign concession to be returned to Chinese control. >

天津简史 最早有人定居天津是在宋朝(公元960-1279年)时期,但外 国租界的历史却始于19世纪。当时西方列强试图打开中国对 外贸易,特别是鸦片贸易的大门。随着英法联军入侵,清政府 在战场上接连受挫。1860年《北京公约》的签订迫使清政府 向外国列强开放许多通商口岸。天津位于京杭大运河和海河 的交汇处,是一个地理位置十分关键的港口城市,也是通往 北京、渤海湾以及后来的唐山煤矿(铁路)的门户。截至1902 年,英、法、美、日、德、俄、意、奥、比等9个国家在天津设立 租界,而当时的上海只有法租界和公共租界。直到1947年,最 后一个外国租界——意租界的权利才被中国收回。 >

HIGHLIGHTS OF TIANJIN’S FORMER FOREIGN CONCESSIONS The Five Avenues

An ideal starting point for an exploration of Tianjin’s former foreign concessions is Minyuan Stadium. This former athletics stadium opened in the heart of the Former British Concession in 1926. Its red brick arches were modelled on the neoclassical Stamford Bridge stadium in London. The stadium is located within The Five Avenues, or “Wu da dao”. This rectangular grid across five thoroughfares – now called Machang, Xikang, Guizhou and Chengdu Streets, and Nanjing Road – is still the most prestigious residential area in Tianjin. Locals of note have included warlords, Peking opera stars, a Qing dynasty prince and former US President Herbert Hoover. While the 1.28-square-kilometre neighbourhood is quite walkable, a great way to survey a fraction of 52

the 2,000 or so Western-style buildings is by horsedrawn carriages, which depart outside the northern gate of Mingyuan Stadium. Prices range from RMB 80 for group tours (in Mandarin only) or RMB 860 for a private vintage-style carriage that seats up to eight people. English-speaking visitors to Tianjin may consider booking a private tour through a company such as Newman Tours, founded by British former marketing executive Daniel Newman. Their five-hour Tianjin tour, which includes transfers from Beijing and back on bullet train, is priced from RMB 4,690 for an individual to RMB 1,380 per person for groups of four or more. Extensive itineraries may also be tailored to guests’ tastes upon request.

Former home of Zhang Xueliang

For a close look at how China’s elite lived in the Roaring Twenties, the home of “The Young Marshall” Zhang Xueliang is a 15-minute stroll from Minyuan Stadium to Chifeng Avenue in the former French Concession. Zhang, a warlord with a playboy reputation, once commanded up to 400,000 troops. He is the famed instigator of the Xi’an Incident of 1936 in which nationalist leader Chiang Kai-shek >

was kidnapped and forced to agree to a truce with Communist insurgents to present a united front against Japanese invaders during the Second World War. Zhang’s house, now a museum, is a three-storey structure built in 1921 with later extensions in an eclectic style with a plastered brick facade. Despite kitschy additions like a statue of Zhang and his wife Zhao Yidi in the front yard and obtrusive signage on the tiled roof, the interior is well-preserved. Visitors can admire period details such as ornate carvings on the staircase, stained-glass windows and an upstairs ballroom with a mirrored ceiling.

Jiefang Road: Tianjin’s Wall Street

By the 1930s, Tianjin accounted for a quarter of China’s gross domestic product. Around 30 banks occupied 1.8-kilometre-long Jiefang Road, which straddles the former British and French Concessions and begins at Jiefang Bridge, a steel drawbridge built in 1923. Architectural highlights of Jiefang Road aren’t limited to banking. Along with such neoclassical gems as the timber-and-brick Russo-Chinese Bank (1896), the concrete edifice of the French Chinese Bank (1919) and the Gothic-influenced Qing Dynasty Post Office (1878) is the Art Deco Leopold Building (1938), Tianjin’s first office tower with a modest 10 storeys.

“From 1929 until 1931 JIngyuan Garden was home of Puyi, the last emperor the Qing dynasty, whose short-lived reign began at the age of three" It was in this mansion that Puyi, a vain, weak, but nonetheless pitiful figure, struck a disastrous deal with the Japanese to serve as puppet emperor in the puppet state of Manchukuo in his quest to regain the dragon throne. Both Wanrong, who was educated at Tianjin’s American School, and Wenxiu, considered this treason. Wenxiu, already isolated from Puyi and Wanrong, left Jingyuan Garden and filed for divorce, thus becoming the first and last royal concubine to do so. Puyi later abandoned Wanrong, then hopelessly addicted to opium, as he tried to flee his crumbling sham empire. She was captured by communist guerillas, treated as a collaborator and soon died in prison, her final resting place unknown. Puyi was captured by Soviet forces and was tried as a war criminal and imprisoned for 10 years. In the post-war era, the mansion became home to up to 45 households before the residence was restored as a museum. Each room is accompanied by photos that show the extent of the building’s restoration. The museum also includes display of archival photographs including Puyi and Wanrong in happier times: the serious bespectacled ex-emperor, an Anglophile in a dark tailored suit and his beautiful wife beaming in a fashionable qipao. The restoration includes props such as Puyi’s leather shoes at the foot of Puyi’s bed and a fur coat on a stand in a corner of Wanrong’s bedroom – touches that make one feel that they might bump into the deposed emperor and his doomed wife as they descend the stairs as the couple returns from their country club to dress for a night of tango dancing.

SOUTHERN OCEAN LODGE, KANGAROO ISLAND, SOUTH AUSTRALIA

Swap the swaying palm trees and calm water often associated with island getaways for the rugged beauty of South Australia’s dramatic Kangaroo Island. Long linked with wildlife watching and untouched wilderness, the island is a sanctuary to native flora and fauna, but in recent years has also housed one of the country’s most luxurious lodges. Southern Ocean Lodge sits perched on the cliffs above Hanson Bay on the island’s south-west coast. The main lodge and 21 private suites are positioned to make the most of the panoramic views, with floor-to-ceiling glass windows, low-lying couches and a muted colour palette that lets the wild blues of the ocean, the vibrant greens of the surrounding bushland and the bright white sand all around you do the talking. The all-inclusive property keeps guests busy with signature experiences around the island alongside meals that showcase local produce together with plenty of local Australian wine and spirits at the open bar.

Jurassic Park meets laid-back luxury on Lord Howe Island. Just 700 kilometres off the NSW coastline, this UNESCO World Heritage listed spot is famous for hiking, snorkelling and dramatic scenery. The mighty Mount Gower can be summited in a gruelling eight-hour day walk that’s high on the bucket list for Aussie hikers; it takes you above the tree canopy and rewards you with spectacular views. Or, if you’re after the view without the trek, for the past decade Capella Lodge has wowed guests with dramatic vistas out to Mount Gower, neighbouring Mount Lidgbird and the picturesque Lovers Bay. Just 400 people are allowed on Lord Howe Island at a time, so it’s never crowded. But fresh from a multi-milliondollar refurbishment, Capella Lodge’s nine suites allow guests the chance to well and truly check out of the world. There’s a mix of beautifully styled indoor and outdoor spaces, and you can soak in the outdoor tubs or enjoy a glass of wine on the balcony before dinner in the awardwinning, beach house-esque Capella Restaurant on-site. As an all-inclusive property, Capella’s guests are treated to locally and NSW-sourced produce for breakfast, lunch and dinner. The spa is also popular post-hike – think big outdoor tub and treatments like Gower’s Foot Therapy, perfect after a long day in boots. >

It’s impossible to round up Australian islands without calling out Hamilton Island. The Great Barrier Reef’s most famous island has an airstrip large enough to accommodate commercial jets – definitely needed during its annual Race Week, when not only sailors but also the who’s who of the social scene descend on the island for luxury events like Paspaley pearl showcases, degustation dinners under the stars, and fashion shows from top-notch Australian designers. There are plenty of accommodation options to cater to guests, who can also arrive via passenger ferry or private plane if they prefer. Qualia sits on the island’s northern tip, and its pavilions are beloved by celebrities and millionaires alike. Meanwhile, right in front of the Dent Passage waterfront, the Yacht Club Villas are another luxe option for discerning guests. Next door to the 240-berth marina and Hamilton Island Yacht Club, these three- to four-level villas are as far away from tight ship quarters as you can get. Revel in the four to five bedrooms, balconies that open out to the water, full kitchens and on-site golf buggies that guests can use for the entirety of their stay.

PORKY BEACH RETREAT, KING ISLAND, TASMANIA

Lying in the Bass Strait, between the southern coast of the mainland and Tasmania, King Island is one of Australia’s lesser-known islands – and that’s a very good thing, because it means in-the-know travellers get to keep it all to themselves. With a reputation for worldclass cheese, golf courses and a rugged landscape, the island plays host to a slower pace of life. Check into Porky Beach Retreat and you’ll slow things right down. The four-bedroom house perches on the cliffs overlooking the beach, with unparalleled views out to the horizon. The best view isn’t actually in the house, though – it’s in the bath, or the sauna. An open-air cedar hot tub is a soak to remember, and the barrel cedar sauna takes things to the next level with a floor-to-ceiling glass wall. The sauna’s glass-fronted rock heater is the first of its kind in Australia and comes all the way from Estonia. Of course, if you prefer to snuggle up inside, there’s underfloor heating, king-sized beds, Jo Malone and Aesop amenities and a handcrafted German fireplace. 60

How does 24 private beaches right in the heart of the Great Barrier Reef sound? Not good enough? Well, there’s always your own private plunge pool too. Lizard Island sits on 1,000 hectares of national park, with access to some of the reef’s most pristine snorkelling spots straight from the sand. Snorkelling, scuba diving, paddleboarding, sailing and fishing are just a few of the ways to stay occupied out on the water. Of course, there are plenty of diversions back on shore. There are accommodation options for 82 guests, including ultra-chic beachfront, ocean view and garden suites and villas. Or opt for The Pavilion, a stunning retreat with panoramic views out across the ocean. While you’re there, look out for naturalists on hand to guide guests around the island, and don’t forget to check out the Essential Day Spa and fine-dining options. >

景点

“Shanghai literary star Eileen Chang lived one block east of Jing’an Temple in the Art Deco Edinburgh Apartments” SEE

With a total area of 37 square kilometres, an exploration of Jing’an can seem daunting, yet many of its most famous sites can be seen by foot. A perfect place to start is Jing’an Temple, from which the district gets its name (Jing’an translates as “peace and tranquility”). The temple’s history dates back to AD 247 during China’s Three Kingdoms Period, but it has been in its current location since the Southern Song dynasty more than 780 years ago. During the Cultural Revolution, the temple was repurposed as a plastics factory until it was destroyed by fire in 1972. Its current incarnation with three connecting halls and courtyards dates from 1984. The temple’s iconic golden pagoda was completed in 2010. Entry to the temple costs RMB 100 or RMB 50 on the first and 15th of each month. West Nanjing Road, on which Jing’an Temple sits, can be followed east all the way to the

historic Bund waterfront. During the pre-war era when today’s Jing’an District covered the International Settlement with French, British, American, German, Italian, Russian and Japanese sectors, it was known as Bubbling Well Road. The neighbourhood, along with the quieter, leafier former French Concession to the south (now Xuhui District), was home to numerous celebrities. Much of the area’s diverse architecture is well-preserved. Shanghai literary star Eileen Chang, author of such works as Lust, Caution and Love in a Fallen City, lived one block east of Jing’an Temple in the Art Deco Edinburgh Apartments from 1939 to 1948 on Changde Road near its bustling intersection with West Nanjing Road. Although the building is not open to the public, you can gaze up to the sixth floor where Chang wrote many of her most famous works. >

静安区总共37平方公里,面积如此之大,的 确令人望而生畏,但其中许多最为著名的景 点都近在咫尺。静安区因静安寺而得名,这 里绝对是您开始探索之旅的最佳选择(静 安即“和平与宁静”的意思)。静安寺的历 史可以追溯到公元247年的三国时期,自 780多年前的南宋时期迁入现在的位置。文 化大革命期间,静安寺被改建为塑料厂,直 到1972年在一场大火中化为乌有。静安寺目 前三殿一楼的格局形成于1984年,而寺中标 志性的金塔则建成于2010年。每个月农历 初一、十五进寺参观的门票价格分别为100 元或50元。 静安寺坐落于南京西路,可沿此路一直 前往历史悠久的外滩。二战前期,静安区尽 是法、英、美、德、意、俄、日等国的公共租 界,时称“涌泉路”。静安寺周边及寺南安 静宁馨、绿树成荫的法租界(现在的徐汇区) 也涌现出许多名人。这里诸多风格的建筑均 保存得十分完好。 1939年至1948年间,著有《色·戒》、 《倾 城之恋》等作品的上海滩最红女作家张爱 玲就曾居住在静安寺东侧街区常德路与繁 华的南京西路交汇处一座装饰艺术风格的 爱丁堡公寓中。虽然爱丁堡公寓不面向公众 开放,但您也依然可以在此翘首观望张爱玲 曾经居住的6楼,她许多最为著名的作品即 于此诞生。 > Left to right: Spiral staircase at The Middle House, a luxury hotel with 111 rooms and 102 residences; Jing’an has quickly become a luxury shopping hot spot; Jing’an Temple, as seen from a crosswalk on West Nanjing Road

El Ocho

Farther along West Nanjing Road near its namesake metro station is Zhang Yuan, a largely intact pre-war residential neighbourhood. One of the hallmarks of this dense grid known as a li long (li meaning the main streets, long referring to the narrow alleyways that criss-cross them) are shikumen (stone warehouse gate) houses, a hybrid of Eastern and Western architecture unique to Shanghai. Distinguished by their large grey oblong gates, which front a courtyard and a multi-storey home, the shikumen were once a bastion of Shanghai’s wealthier families, but now shelter four or more households in each building with many in a state of disrepair. Some have been renovated as the area morphs into an entertainment precinct similar to Shanghai’s Xintiandi, in which rebuilt shikumen contain restaurants and boutiques. One of the neighbourhood’s grandest mansions at 99 Taixing Road now hosts a series of bars and restaurants, the pick of which is El Ocho, which features vaulted ceilings, brightly painted wooden beams and comfortable couches. Walk up the wooden staircase to the third floor to enjoy Spanish snacks and Japanese-style cocktails. The venue also features an intimate hidden bar, Oji. Dial ‘0’ on a vintage telephone in a corridor left of El Ocho’s entrance and a door slides open to reveal a 17-seat speakeasy helmed by owner/bartender Naoji Oji. As well as Japanese-style cocktails, Oji boasts a wide range of Japanese whiskies.

Fu 1088

Housed across two Spanish revival mansions on Zhenning Road on the western edge of Jing’an District, Fu 1088 offers one of Shanghai’s ultimate dining experiences. It is one of four “Fu” (lucky) restaurants presided over by Shanghainese executive chef Tony Lu, and features period details such as original glazed floor tiles, Art Deco light fittings, antique furniture and extensive dark wooden panelling. Each of its 18 private dining rooms could double as a film set for director Zhang Yimou’s 1995 crime drama Shanghai Triad, set in the city’s decadent 1930s. Shanghainese food, Fu 1088’s specialty, is a close cousin of the sweet and savoury cuisine from neighbouring Suzhou, which was the region’s cultural centre prior to Shanghai’s mid-1800s. The restaurant offers subtle twists on classic dishes, such as seaweed braised bean curd with mushroom, in which house-made tofu is given the look and >

or years, the trend in Australian restaurants has been on produce: who grows it, where it came from, and what’s in season. Chefs boast about the farmer who made their cheese and the forager who supplied their chestnuts. But can most chefs say the same for the fish they serve? As fishing stocks fall and consumer concern turns to seafood, a small number of chefs are leading the industry with a strong ocean-to-plate philosophy – one that champions sustainability and stewardship, all without sacrificing quality or taste.

74

年来,澳大利亚的餐厅一直非常 注重食材:由谁种植?产自哪里? 什么产品正当季?同时,厨师们也 在炫耀着农人制作奶酪的技艺以及供应商 供应栗子的品质。但是,对于端上餐桌的鱼, 大多数厨师能否也像这样了如指掌呢? 随着渔业资源的减少以及消费者对海 产品的关注,少数厨师以坚定的“海洋到 餐桌”理念引领着整个行业,这一理念在 不牺牲质量或品味的前提下,积极推动可 持续发展和管理。

“We want to make something wanted, not wasted,” says Steve Earl, head chef and owner of La Bimba, located on the Great Ocean Road in Victoria’s Apollo Bay. His restaurant looks across the water to a working harbour. “There’s a new generation of fishermen and they go out after crayfish, but they’re also getting a lot of bycatch: octopus, bluethroat wrasse, snapper, leatherjacket.” Earl purchases the bycatch directly, diversifying the fishermen’s income and ensuring La Bimba has the freshest fish delivered directly from the boat to the kitchen door. “There’s a lot of fish coming in that doesn’t have a high market value, but does have a high eating quality,” says Earl, who also forages for wakame, a highly prized Japanese seaweed, along the shore. “We get a lot of people coming in because they’ve heard about what we do. It’s really nice when they appreciate the effort that has gone into having something on the plate that is of the region; something that has a sense of place.”

Of course, if your restaurant is in the city, conveying a sense of place can be more challenging. Not so for executive chef Nick Mahlook, though, who includes fish caught from the Lakes Entrance region, where he grew up, on the menu at his restaurant, The Atlantic. Mahlook got his start in the industry by cleaning calamari and baby sand whiting in the kitchen of his sister’s restaurant, heading out on a fishing trawler as a teenager to get a taste for how fishermen operate. “I was only 13 or 14 and I just wanted to see what was underneath the ocean – I threw up all night,” he laughs. “The conditions the fishermen have to work in and the power of the ocean are just unbelievable. It really makes you respect everything they do.” >

海洋深处 位于维多利亚州阿波罗湾(Apollo Bay) 大洋路的La Bimba餐厅的老板兼主厨斯 蒂夫·厄尔(Steve Earl)这样表示:“我 们想做出一些人们需要,从而不被浪费的 东西。” “…新一代的渔民会出海捕捉小龙虾,但 在捕捉的过程中,他们会意外捕获到很多 其它的鱼,比如章鱼、蓝喉濑鱼、鲷鱼、剥 皮鱼等,”厄尔说道。他的餐厅临水而建, 对面则是一座繁忙的渔港。  直接从渔民那里购买不仅可以利用到这 些意外捕获的鱼,而且还可以增加渔民的 收入,从而确保鱼的新鲜度,直接从渔船 送到厨房门口。   “我们买来的很多鱼并没有很高的市场价 值,但却有着很高的食用品质,”厄尔解释 道。他还会沿海岸寻找裙带菜,这是一种 非常珍贵的日本海藻。  “有很多客人因为听说我们的这种做法, 而专门来到店内就餐,”厄尔介绍。  “当有人欣赏我们为打造本 地特色菜品 而所做的努力时,这种感觉真的很棒。”

大海与城市 当然,如果您的餐厅位于城市之中,烹制 地方特 色的菜品可能更具挑 战性。但 对 于厨师长尼克·马卢克(Nick Mahlook) 来说,情况却并非如此。他将从家乡湖口 镇(Lakes Entrance)捕获的鱼融入到了 The Atlantic餐厅的菜单中。 马卢克的餐饮行业生涯始于在他姐姐餐 厅的厨房里清洗鱿鱼和无鳔石首鱼的幼鱼 开始。而后还是少年的他,就已随拖网渔 船出海,以了解渔民们的捕鱼生活。  > 75

in Paddington thanks to dishes like the sea urchin crumpet and its innovative techniques of dry-ageing fish, a technique normally applied to hanging meat. But amid the awards and hype, what makes Saint Peter a real standout is the lack of waste generated by the kitchen. Using everything from the scales to the eyes and pieces that are normally gutted and thrown away at the fish market – like the liver – owner and head chef Josh Niland was able to run his food costs at 29 per cent in his first year of business, generating a greater yield from the fish itself. “It’s nice to be creative to a degree, but I never wanted Saint Peter to be this kind of faddish, temporary place that would have an expiration date on it,” Niland says. “I wanted it to be timeless, and still do, because fish is timeless. We need to do the right thing with it globally, looking after our stocks and trying to be smart about utilising waste. There’s a bigger picture.” That bigger picture is an ongoing concern for Justin James, executive chef at Melbourne’s Iki Jime, which champions ethical and sustainable seafood harvesting practices. His advice for diners wanting to eat seafood sustainably is to be more aware of the origins of the catch. “Make sure you know where it’s coming from, how it’s caught, and how it’s leaving the rest of the fish population and oceans behind,” James says. “That’s what I always encourage everyone to do: ask where the food is coming from, even if it’s not seafood. If it’s a restaurant that cares, they’ll know.”

海洋运动 在食客们对鱼类来源越来越关注的同时, 他们对其烹制方式也兴趣颇浓。 自两年前在帕丁顿(Paddington)开业 以来,得益于餐厅的海胆烤饼等特色菜肴 以及创新的鱼类干式熟成工艺(一般用于 肉类),悉尼的Saint Peter餐厅异常火爆。 然 而,在 各 种 奖 项 和 宣 传 中,真 正 让 Saint Peter餐厅脱颖而出的却是餐厅厨 房极少产生垃圾这一特点。 餐厅老板 兼主 厨约 什·奈兰德(J o s h Niland)将鱼鳞、鱼眼甚至通常会挖出丢 弃的鱼肝等物尽其用,在第一年就将食品 成本控制在29%,从鱼本身上获得更高的 收益。 “具有一定程度的创新是很好的,但我从 来不希望Saint Peter餐厅在风靡一时之后 就逐渐淡出人们的视野,”奈兰德说道。 “我希望它能够一直创新、一直存在。因为 鱼类会一直存在,而且只要我们坚持正确 的做法,保护我们的渔业资源,并且努力进 行废物利用…”奈兰德说到一半,停了下来。 “未来会更加美好。”

海面之上 墨尔本Iki Jime餐厅的行政厨师贾斯汀· 詹姆斯(Justin James)也一直有着更美 好的期盼。这间餐厅倡导道德的、可持续 的海产品捕捞原则。对于对海鲜可持续性 比较关注的食客,他的建议是多关注这些 鱼的捕捞地。 詹姆斯解释道:“确保了解这些鱼的产 地、捕捞方式以及对其种群和整个海洋的 影响。” “我一直鼓励每个人都这样去做——即便 不是海鲜,也问问食物的来源。如果餐厅 关心这一点,他们就会得到答案。” 79

Nanjing may not be as well-known as Shanghai or Beijing, but centuries ago it was the capital of the Ming dynasty. 南京或许不如上海和北京著名,但是数百 年前,这里曾是明朝的首都。 Words and photography: Dave Tacon

F 古老与现代

ew cities have enjoyed such lofty heights and weathered such brutal lows as the city of Nanjing. Situated on the Yangtze River in Jiangsu province, 271 kilometres north-west of Shanghai, Nanjing was the original capital of the Ming dynasty, a three-century reign that saw many of China’s greatest achievements in design, commerce, governance and science. Nanjing has built itself into a modern city of 8.34 million. We take a look at a fascinating destination that has retained much of its rich cultural heritage.

Standing tall

From the top balcony of seven-storey Yuejiang Tower, one is treated to a spectacular 360-degree view that stretches from the mighty Yangtze River in the north-west to the skyscrapers of downtown Nanjing to the south-east. Although it sits above the ancient Nanjing City Wall, this Ming-style tower with curved tiled roofs and a striking colour palette of red, green, blue and yellow was built only 17 years ago. >

少有哪个 城 市像 南 京 一 样 ,曾 享 有至高无 上的荣 耀,也承受过凄风苦雨的伤 痛。江苏省省会南京位于上 海西北271公里处的扬子江 畔,曾是明朝的首都。在明 朝长达三个世纪的统治期间, 中国历史上多项最伟大的艺 术、商业、治理和科学成就 纷纷涌现。如今,虽然南京 已经成为拥有834万人口的 现代化城市,但是却依然保 留着丰富的文化遗珠,让我 们一起走进这座令人向往的 城市吧。

In contrast, the Nanjing City Wall, one of the largest in China, was first built more than 1,000 years ago during the Southern Tang dynasty (AD 937–975). Nevertheless, the relatively new Yuejiang Tower has its own ancient history. Few leaders cast a longer shadow than Zhu Yuanzhang, the Hongwu Emperor and founder of the Ming dynasty. Fifteen years into his 30-year rule, he decreed that a tower be built on Shizishan (Lion Mountain) north-west of Nanjing to mark the site of a decisive military victory in his journey to become Hongwu’s (vastly militant) emperor. Although he was advised against the tower’s construction due to limited funds, which were in part dedicated to fortifying that same 48km-long Nanjing City Wall, his wish was never forgotten. More than 600 years after his death, Yuejiang Tower rose to honour the man who ascended from poverty to overthrow the Mongolian conquerors of the Yuan dynasty (AD 1271–1368) and unify China in an empire that lasted from AD 1368 to 1644.

座阁楼,以纪念其洪武霸业 征程上的一次决定性军事胜 利。当时有人提出异议,称 为修建长48公里的南京城墙 已经使国库亏空,无力再建 这样一座阁楼,阅江楼最终 被停建。但是朱元璋的心愿 并未被遗忘在历史的风尘中。 朱元璋去世600多年后,阅 江楼终于屹立在了南京城墙 之上,赞颂着这位出身贫苦、 却 最 终 推 翻了元 朝(公 元 1271-1368年)统治的洪武 帝,其建立的大明王朝从公 元1368年一直延续至1644 年,统治时间长达三个世纪。

仍然保留着大量明朝遗址, 其中最重要的明孝陵是洪武 帝朱元璋和皇后马氏以及朱 元璋的政治顾问和助理的合 葬陵寝。其中,明孝陵神道 长1.8公里,蜿蜒曲折,通向 数座楼阁。神道两旁排列着 栩栩如生的神秘高大石兽及 佩戴武器的巨大石像。洪武 帝陵寝则位于直径达400米、 草木葱茏的独龙阜下。据说 为了防止后人盗墓,皇帝下 葬时布下迷魂阵,有13支出 殡 队伍同时从13个城门出 发。这一声势浩大的陵寝由 5,0 0 0名士兵日夜巡逻,自 1381年动工,直到1405年方 才建成。原有的陵桓周长达 到22.5公里,直至今天,这 座陵寝仍然完好无损。

Tomb raiders

Although the Ming capital moved to Beijing 53 years after its foundation in Nanjing, the city still boasts numerous Ming sites, and none more significant than Ming Xiaoling Mausoleum, the final resting place of the Hongwu Emperor and his queen, Empress Ma, who was also his political advisor and secretary. The Sacred Way, a 1.8-kilometre-long road lined with impressive stone sculptures of animals, both mythical and real, and giant armed guardians, winds to the entrance of a series of pavilions. Beyond these lies the emperor’s tomb, beneath 400-metre forested mountain Du Long Fu (Lone Dragon Hill). To prevent robbery of the tomb, it’s said 13 different royal funeral processions departed from 13 different city gates. The construction of the complex began under a guard of 5,000 troops in 1381 and ended in 1405. Its original wall was 22.5 kilometres long. To this day, the tomb remains undisturbed. The complex, much of which is a verdant park, lies on the southern foot of Zijin Shan (purple mountain) on the eastern edge of China. Adjacent to Ming Xiaoling is the mausoleum of Dr. Sun Yatsen, whose leadership put an end to 2,000 years of feudal monarchy and founded the Republic of China in 1912. The complex, completed in 1929, covers 20 acres compared to the former emperor’s 260-acre site. Its Ming-inspired design forgoes imperial red for the white and blue of the Republic of China’s Nationalist Party, the Koumintang.

明孝陵位于南京东部紫金 山之南,大部分是青松翠柏、 绿树成荫的公园。孙中山纪 念馆就坐落于明孝陵旁边。 孙中山领导中国推翻2,000 余年的封建统治,于1912年 成立了中华民国。孙中山纪 念馆主墓室建成于1929年, 占地20英亩,相比明孝陵的 260英亩要小得多。虽然纪 念馆在设计风格上吸收了明 代建筑的灵感,但是没有采 用象征帝王的红色,而是采 用了代表孙中山所在国民党 的白色和蓝色。

时尚之都 如今,南京已经快速发展成 为一个高科技商业中心,彰 显着 这 座城市极强的适 应 能力。过去十年来,南京重 点建设的河西新城商务中心 区已经吸引了无数国内外企 业在此设立区域总部,占地 120,000平方米的南京国际 博览中心也落户于此。不论 为商务会谈还是旅游休闲而 来,南京的多家奢华酒店都 能满足人们的各种需求。 南 京最 蔚为壮观 的酒店 之一——南京金奥费尔蒙 >

While many visitors to Nanjing will be travelling for business as much as for pleasure, the city offers a wide range of luxury hotels where one can mix both. By far one of the city’s most spectacularly housed hotels is Fairmont Nanjing, which occupies the upper floors of the Jin Ao Tower, a 232-metre skyscraper designed by San Francisco-based architecture firm Skidmore Owings & Merrill. Its multifaceted glass facade resembles a crystal lantern. Meanwhile, inside, the building’s 50-metre high metal atrium is bathed in shifting hues of light that represent the four seasons.

such as prawns marinated in longjing tea, a distinctive flash-fried dish with the local tea lending a subtle fragrance. It is best paired with local, slightly sour yellow wine, brewed from rice. Beyond flavour, the “warmth” of the wine tempers the “cooling” properties of the prawns according to traditional Chinese medicine, a guiding principle behind much Jiangsu cooking. At Vancouver Grill, a steakhouse on the hotel’s 37th floor, executive chef Emma Wu expertly prepares surf-and-turf dishes with a focus on the freshness and quality of the ingredients. While female head chefs are a rarity in top kitchens, they have an auspicious history in China. During the Song dynasty (AD 960–1279), chu niang, the dynasty’s female master chefs, were highly sought after by the royalty and commanded much higher fees than their male counterparts. A graduate of the Nanjing Tourism Culinary Institute, chef Wu cut her teeth in five-star hotel kitchens in the Middle East, earning gold and silver awards at cooking competitions in Dubai and Abu Dhabi. “When I started out, some male chefs didn’t think I belonged in the hot kitchen since female chefs are usually pastry chefs. But I showed them how hard I work and they came to like me.”

“WHILE FEMALE HEAD CHEFS ARE A RARITY IN TOP KITCHENS, THEY HAVE AN AUSPICIOUS HISTORY IN CHINA”

The signature dish at Vancouver Grill is a stockyard tomahawk, an Australian steak, which is the restaurant’s most popular cut, as well as its most expensive with a 1.2-kilogram wagyu coming in at RMB 1,200 (around $250). According to Wu, the key to a deliciously tender tomahawk is to first grill it at high temperature, finish it in the oven for around 30 minutes at 220°C, and then rest the meat for eight minutes. She makes it sound easy, but consistently great cooking relies on timing and intuition learned over many years. Chef Wu has seen plenty of bad behaviour by head chefs when things do not go to plan, but prides herself on a compassionate leadership style. “Some chefs get angry. I got shouted at a lot when I started, but I think if I did it to some of the new kids these days, they’d cry!,” she says. “Good chefs need good communication and patience. I want to be a friend to my staff first as I bring them up to our standard.” 烤箱内烘烤30分钟左右,再 取出自然降温8分钟。 听起来似乎很容易,但是 始终如一的卓越口感依赖于 对火候的把握和多年练习获 得的直觉。吴主厨曾看到很 多主厨在工作进展不顺时大 发脾气,但是她却以自己富 于同理 心 的 领 导风 格而自

豪。 “有的主厨会非常生气。 我开始时经常被大声训斥, 但是我觉得,如果我像那样 训斥现在的这些孩子,他们 肯定会哭的!好的主厨需要 良好的沟通能力和耐心,我 希望自己在帮助成员们提高 的同时,也能够和他们成为 朋友。”

n some countries, luxury might mean drinking a bottle of wine in an underground cellar or a degustation in a Michelin-starred restaurant. Maybe even a walk through ancient ruins before sunrise or sailing along a dramatic coastline. In Australia, luxury comes in all shapes and sizes, but the best of it – the truly out-of-this-world, one-ofa-kind experiences – are completely unique to the country. They’ll take you off the beaten track and out of your comfort zone; but by no means do they sacrifice on creature comforts. Here are 10 spots where you’ll experience something truly special...

Bay of Fires Lodge Walk, Tasmania

You’ll never think of a beach holiday in the same way after spending four days walking the Bay of Fires. This famous 50-kilometre stretch of coastline on Tasmania’s north-eastern shore takes its name from the fire-coloured lichen adorning boulders along the sand. The Bay of Fires Lodge Walk explores the length of this coast on small all-inclusive group tours, spending a night in the semi-permanent Forester Beach Camp before using the stunning eco-friendly lodge as a base for two more nights. Guides, often with backgrounds in biology and environmental studies, not only point out local wildlife, but also carry the ingredients to cook up a feast for your beach camp. Spend your days walking along the sand, past towering shell-filled coves, along lush marsupial lawns and, finally, into the bush. The lodge is the icing on the cake – arrive to steaming foot baths, glasses of Tasmanian red wine and an outdoor spa that, after two days’ hiking, is what dreams are made of.

Longitude 131, Uluru, Northern Territory In the shadow of mighty Uluru, the base camp of Longitude 131 looks tiny. It’s impossible to compete with the majesty of the monolith, but this luxury tented camp doesn’t need to. Rather, it’s the icing on the cake for a trip to Uluru. Keeping well away from bright lights and bells and whistles, the property provides an unparalleled way to experience the significant site, with a heavy dose of decadence on the side. All-inclusive with French bubbles to boot, guests are treated to sundowners before dining on the likes of South Australian snapper, poached lobster and Australian wine. Each of the 16 tented pavilions looks out at Uluru; there are full-size beds, of course, but most guests choose to spend at least some of the night sleeping out under the stars. Curl up under blankets and candlelight on the day beds of your balcony before extinguishing all the lights. Uluru might be spectacular, but the stargazing is just as breathtaking. >

“SAVE YOUR SWIM FOR THE LODGE’S INFINITY POOL, WATCHING WALLABIES SCAMPER ACROSS THE GRASSY BUSHLANDS AS THE SUN GOES DOWN” glass, curtains or screens to get in the way of the views of the mighty ocean and lush jungle. Outdoor bathtubs are the perfect spot to soak up the sounds of the jungle. You’ll spend your days as a castaway inspecting shipwrecks, finding waterfalls, snorkelling and fishing for the day’s catch. Pull giant mud crabs and coral trout from the sea to eat fresh half an hour later. This is true barefoot luxury at its best.

Faraway Bay Bush Camp, Kimberley, Western Australia As the name suggests, the Faraway Bay Bush Camp is far, far away from any kind of city, town, community or even other buildings. In fact, perched on the northern edge of the Kimberley in Western Australia, the only way to reach Faraway Bay is by boat or landing on the dirt-strip runway. The wilderness retreat carves out a small pocket of space on the rugged coastline overlooking the Timor Sea. A main lodge building has the perfect spot to watch sunset with a sundowner in hand, and the small cabins let the scenery do the talking through wrap-around windows. Sleep with the blinds up and let the stars shine in. Rise with the sun and head out on the camp yacht for a day of fishing for giant trevally. The camp has a cult-like following among fishing folk, but is also famous for its easy access to stunning Indigenous rock art – some of the country’s best Bradshaw rock art is a few hours’ walk away.

Wildman Wilderness Lodge, Northern Territory If you want to see Australian wildlife in the wild, it’s no surprise that Wildman Wilderness Lodge can provide ample opportunities to do so. Located two hours’ drive south-east of Darwin, the lodge and its mixture of freestanding pavilions and glamping tents sit all in a row, looking straight out onto untouched Northern Territory wilderness all the way to the horizon. Dip your toes into the Mary River wetlands – not literally, of course, but on a cruise through the famous estuary that swells across magnificent floodplains each year. You’ll spot more birdlife than you can count, fields of floating water lilies and the famous Top End crocodiles. Once you see their scales rippling through the water, you’ll be keeping your toes well out of the way; but save your swim for the lodge’s infinity pool, watching wallabies scamper across the grassy bushlands as the sun goes down.

“PEOPLE DON’T JUST CLIMB THE MOUNTAINS; THEY TAKE HOLISTIC JOURNEYS IN SEARCH OF NOT JUST A BUCKET-LIST PEAK TO TICK OFF, BUT ALSO FOR ENLIGHTENMENT ” As the trio reach for the heavens, it’s perhaps of little surprise that they’re considered holy by many, the embodiments of three bodhisattvas: Mercy, Wisdom and Power. People don’t just climb or hike the mountains; they take holistic journeys in search of not just another bucket-list peak to tick off, but also for enlightenment and, hopefully, a bit of mercy, wisdom and power. But to only look up is to miss the beauty of the mountains’ home. They sit high above the Yading Nature Reserve, providing a most stunning backdrop to a land considered by the locals to be the last Shangri-La – the last pure land on earth and the holy land in the sun.

shadow of Mount Chenrezig (the embodiment of Mercy, in case you were wondering), are the remains of an 800-yearold temple from the Yuan dynasty, built to worship the mountains.

take you to an another must-see of the Yading Nature Reserve: the Luorong Grasslands. The two-hour walk is shortened to 20 minutes in the electric car ride to this elevated plateau. From there you can view all three mountains and capture almost the entirety of Yading’s perfection in one sitting. You can also, from that vantage point, see the waterways thread their way across the verdant landscape, all in the company of locals – namely, sheep and cows – being tended to by the herders whose huts are built on the grassland. The huts are their homes for the summer and spring months. In the summer, the other flocks heading to Yading are of the tourist variety. They head to Yading in their droves, so if you come in-season it’s worth finding accommodation nearby so you can explore at the beginning and ends of the day, arguably when the land is at its most photogenic. There are plenty of hotel options in Daocheng, and if you’re sharing a private minivan, even the cost of getting to and from is comparatively minimal. Or you can stay in some very basic

hen you venture outside of Sydney’s CBD, you’ll discover that the real heart and soul of the city isn’t surrounded by buildings, but is found on the outskirts where the locals live and play. Sydney is mostly known for its major icons like the Opera House and Harbour Bridge, but take a short trip in almost any direction outside of the city and you’ll find some true Aussie gems. A quick and easy 30-minute ferry ride through Sydney Harbour, for example, will land you in Manly, Bondi Beach’s rival for Sydney’s best coastal community. It’s close enough to the city to make it an easy trip, but far enough that you can leave your worries behind. Manly is a relatively small town, but it packs in enough for every type of day-tripper. It’s a surf village, a weekend getaway and a history buff’s dream all rolled into one.

Manly Beach while holidaymakers came streaming in every day thanks to the Port Jackson and Manly Steamship Company, which became Sydney Ferries in 1974. Their slogan? “Seven miles from Sydney, a thousand miles from care.” That hasn’t changed in Manly today, but there has since been an influx of bars, cafes and restaurants to fill every pocket of town. Manly’s main strip, known as the Corso, runs from harbourside at Manly Wharf to the ocean side at Manly Beach. But before tackling all this, it’s worth exploring the Sydney Harbour National Park, the bushland that takes up most of the area. Starting at the sheltered inlet, Shelly Beach, the North Head walk will weave you through the national park towards North Head. Peppered with small coves, cliffs and magnificent headlands, the urban coastal loop is easily one of Sydney’s most spectacular trails. This gentle track offers multiple lookouts over Sydney’s idyllic waterways and skyline, and is also a popular whale-watching hot spot during migration season. It’s the ideal walk to escape the city for a morning or to walk off that big brekky. For those who want to dig a little deeper, the area is also home 106

to Q Station, a large historical site that features a hotel, restaurant and museum complex. This quarantine station saw more then 15,000 convicts and immigrants pass through between 1828 and 1973. It’s maybe not the first place you’d think of for a coastal getaway, but Q Station has stories and views for days. Soak it all in by staying a night or learn about this chapter at the free museum attached. Before heading back into town, a coffee and breakfast stop at The Boathouse on Shelly Beach is a must. Housed on a private inlet tucked around the corner from the main Manly Beach, this rustic beachside kiosk, cafe and restaurant is the envy of Northern Beaches cafes. Spanning three sections all facing the water, this light, bright and airy space is the perfect place for a relaxing start to your day. The modern design embraces the coastal vibe with plants and fruit scattered around the dining rooms and huge communal raw wooden benches to gather around. You’ll get all your classic Aussie breakfast options at The Boathouse: big brekkies, seasonal fruit plates and, of course, smashed avo on toast. But if you’re looking for something a bit more substantial around lunchtime, you’ll also find some of the best and freshest seafood dishes in the area here. Think oyster plates, buckets of prawns, snapper ceviche and a classic grilled barramundi with fennel, cucumber and apricot. Just around the corner is Manly Beach, the centrepiece of Manly. Stretching for 1.3 kilometres from Fairy Bower to Queenscliff, it’s known as one of the best surfing beaches in Australia. The main section of beach near the Corso is a sea of sun bathers and tourists in the summertime, but take a stroll away from the crowds for a prime spot to see the surfers kick out over some monster waves. >

Manly is the community that draws the tourists.

High-end couture, hip boutiques and surf gear all sit side-by-side, while laneways hide small bars and cafes that provide a welcome haven to escape the rush of the main shopping street. If the Corso is for shopping, then Manly Wharf is for eating. This heritage-listed wharf is the main entry point for most visitors coming in by ferry. You’ll find all the usual cafes and gelato joints in every nook and cranny, but the main reason to stop by is the Manly Wharf Hotel. Known as the Wharf Bar, day and night this Sydney icon is filled with locals and visitors alike. Whether it’s a long lunch with family or an evening drink by the water’s edge, the Manly Wharf Hotel is the highlight of any Manly visit. The seasonal lunch and dinner menu has everything from gourmet pizzas to fresh seafood including freshly shucked oysters and grilled salmon and barramundi. Manly is home to so many tourist hot spots that it’s easy to miss some of the real gems in town. Scratch the surface and you’ll uncover bars, cafes and restaurants well worth your time.

Manly lends itself well to beachy bars. However, there are dining options in every pocket of town worth visiting too. Cheese, sourdough and all things cured meats are the focus at Cured. The raw brick walls and copper lighting fixtures come across a little more New York than Manly, but the space’s laid-back elegance fits right in.

Just around the corner from Manly Beach is Freshwater Beach, a quiet little surf beach hidden away from it all. Pilu at Freshwater looks out over the entire inlet offering up some of the best dining room views in the area. A path from the beach leads through the garden to Pilu, a Hamptons-style beach house where you’ll be served up some of the best Italian regional cuisine in Sydney. The eightcourse degustation menu covers everything from confit scampi to barramundi and roasted suckling pig. You may come to Manly for the day, but you’ll be thinking of your next trip every weekend – or even browsing the local real estate. Blending the charms of Aussie beach culture with that of a holiday hot spot, Manly finds just the right balance between sophistication and vacation town. Escape the city for a day without having to leave it too far behind.

Manly Greenhouse也是一间集咖啡、 美食和美酒于一体的好去处。玻璃墙外便 是美丽海景,开放式布局让宾客更靠近酒 吧、咖啡台和披萨烤箱。中间一层是雅致的 餐厅,顶层酒吧可以欣赏海洋全景,蕨类植 物从棚顶探出头来,仿佛一片轻柔的绿洲。 曼 利 的 海 滩 酒 吧 数 不 胜 数 ,不 过 小 镇 的各 个角落里也有很多餐厅 值得 尝 试。Cured Manly专注于芝士、酵母以及一 切能够腌制肉品的食材。粗犷的砖墙和铜 制灯具好像更具纽约范儿,但是悠闲而优雅 的气氛提醒您,这里真真切切就是曼利。 淡水海滩(Freshwater Beach)紧邻曼 利海滩,是隐藏在曼利之外的一个小小的、 安静的冲浪海滩。从Pilu at Freshwater餐 厅可俯瞰整个海湾,选对了位置,便能欣赏 到当地无与伦比的美景。一条小路从海滩延 伸过来,穿过花园通向Pilu——一座汉普顿 风格的海滨别墅,这里的一些意大利特色菜 肴在整个悉尼都是首屈一指的。八道菜的赏 味菜单中包含了脆皮油封虾、澳大利亚肺鱼 和烤乳猪等多种美味佳肴。 抵达曼利前,您可能计划要当日往返。但 游览过后,您便会想要之后的每个周末都能 够再次前来——或者说不定还要考虑在当 地置业呢。曼利既散发着澳大利亚海滩文化 的魅力,同时又是一处度假胜地,是成熟精 致和假日休闲的完美平衡。不必长途跋涉, 即可抛却整个城市的喧嚣。 109

COSY UP AT THE NE W EDITION HOTEL 上海艾迪逊酒店

| SHANGHAI

When the winter winds begin to whip around Shanghai’s skyscrapers, you’ll wish you were curled up indoors. And where better to hunker down than in the newly opened Shanghai Edition? Set in a refurbished Art Deco building on Nanjing Road, moments from the postcard-pretty Bund, it’s easy to pop out for afternoon tea or a spot of shopping – if you must. But with oodles of wood-panelled public space to wander, we wouldn’t bother leaving the hotel: simply hop from your minimalist-chic bedroom to the multiple lounge bars, from the sultry spa to the on-site nightclub. If tummies rumble, three restaurants from Brit superstar chef Jason Atherton are on hand, from a retro-chic British grill room with succulent pink lamb to a high-end Japanese with bracing city views from floor 27. From RMB 1,841 per night; editionhotels.com 冬季来临,上海的摩天大楼饱受寒风肆虐,您可能会希望蜷缩 在屋内。那么还有比新开业的上海艾迪逊酒店更为舒适的选 择吗?该酒店位于南京路一栋翻新的装饰艺术大楼中,而著名 的外滩就近在咫尺。如果您一定要去的话,这里可是喝下午茶 或购物的好地方。不过酒店中有如此多的公共空间可以闲逛, 我们就不用离开酒店了——从简约别致的卧室前往酒廊酒吧, 或从湿热的温泉前往酒店的夜店。如果肚子开始咕噜咕噜地响, 可以前往由英国超级名厨贾森·阿瑟顿(Jason Atherton)主理 的三间餐厅,品味一下这里复古风味的英国烤肉或是高端日式 料理,在27层的高空俯瞰上海的壮丽景色。双人房1,841元起。

SK ATE ON FROZEN L AKES 北京溜冰

| BEIJING

In the Chinese capital when the mercury drops? Then lace up your skates: throughout the city, minus temperatures mean outdoor skating rinks as lakes freeze over with the seasonal chill. The impressive rink at temple-studded, scenic Shichahai – where Qianhai, Houhai and Xihai lakes cluster together – is one of the most popular, with strings of colourful lights illuminating buildings lining the banks. But if you do just one? It’s hard to beat Kunming lake, at the ornate Summer Palace. Kids on sleds skid across the white to tiny islands and the stony 17-Arch Bridge vaults dramatically over the ice.

中国首都的气温下降了?那么,是时候系好您的溜冰鞋了。 对于北京这座城市而言,温度达到零下时,湖水就会结冰, 就意味着可以去户外溜冰场撒欢了。由周边庙宇林立、风 景秀丽的石刹海、前海、后海和西海组成的溜冰场是最受 欢迎的场地之一,岸边的各色建筑流光溢彩。但是如果只 选一个?那么肯定非颐和园的昆明湖莫属了。在雪白的冰面 上,孩子们欢呼雀跃地乘坐着雪橇穿过一个个的小岛和壮 观的十七孔桥。

SOAK IN THE BULG ARI 上海宝格丽温泉

| SHANGHAI

Icky weather was made for long, lazy spa days – who wants to be outside in sleet anyhow? – and if you want to spa in style, look no further than the brand new Bulgari Hotel. Opened earlier this year, its blingy Italian-style interiors – warm copper, roaring fires, charcoal-hued rich fabrics – provides a coddling embrace that comes into its own when skies are grey. The elaborate spa is just the cocoon you’ll crave on a rotten day, with its own green-marble accent walls, teak detailing, and luxurious daybeds to stretch out upon by a candle-lined pool. La Mer products feature in facial treatments designed to turn back the years, while traditional therapies such as “Balancing Qi” combine the likes of local herbs and tai chi to unclench shoulders and rebalance your energy flow.

B E DA Z ZLED BY ICE SCULPTURES 哈尔滨冰雕

| HARBIN

You’ve probably heard of Harbin Ice and Snow Festival. And for good reason – the largest celebration of its kind in the world, running from the end of December to the end of February, is a mind-numbing display of all things frosty. Ridiculously large ice carvings – ranging from folklore scenes and characters to actual, almost-lifesized buildings – are set against the sky, squeezing in alongside this northerly city’s elaborate Russian-style architecture. They’re dazzling enough under sunlight, when they appear like ghostly jewels against the blue, but they’re even better at night. That’s the time to make a beeline for Ice and Snow World, where the carvings are illuminated by rainbows of lights, transforming icy castles into fairytale pink palaces, or alabaster replicas of Roman monuments into lifelike golden Colosseums.

Spice is more than nice at the new branch of Ben Zhen in Shanghai – it’s everywhere. This slick Sichuan restaurant in Xintiandi’s Hubin Dao mall will banish wintry chills with its array of chilli-laced dishes, ranging from succulent pork belly with punchy garlic sauce to pepper-flecked classic mapo tofu. It’s just the kind of fabulous, firecracker food you might expect to find in a little hole-in-the-wall restaurant in Chengdu, but Ben Zhen is in fact a polished affair with lattice-styled doordivides and stone-topped polished bar. Can’t handle the heat? Temper the spice with the roll-call of craft beers, or lashings of fluffy white rice. 这家在上海新开业的本甄精品川菜分店无辣不欢,而且辣 得无处不在。这家新店位于新天地湖滨道购物中心,为宾 客推出一系列火辣的菜肴来驱除冬天的寒意,从多汁的大 蒜酱猪肚到传统的麻婆豆腐,不一而足。这家本甄精品川 菜的味道就如同成都的街边小店那样火辣得令人叫绝,但 却有着古典风格的格子屏风和抛光石材吧台,装潢相当豪 华。辣得受不了?不妨点上几杯精酿啤酒,或者来点松软的 白米饭来缓解一下吧。 >

HIT THE SLOPES 亚布力滑雪

| YABULI

China has several ski resorts, but if you want the best you’ve got to go to Yabuli. Located among the snowdrenched Changbai mountain range in China’s most northerly province, this is where the country’s top athletes, Olympians included, often come to train. The ultra-frosty climes (it regularly drops below -20°C in winter) mean the white stuff is pretty much guaranteed from November through to March – and with slopes here for every level, from high-altitude alpine-style runs to gentle beginner options, it’s perfect for mixed-level groups or families. Not a skier? No problem – Yabuli also has an enormous toboggan run, plus ice-skating on tap; or, just curl up inside and feast on rib-sticking huoguo (hot pot), which is sure to warm your bones. 中国有数处滑雪胜地,但最好的非亚布力莫属。亚布力滑 雪场位于中国最北部省份黑龙江的长白山,这里经常有包 括奥运会选手在内的全国顶尖运动员前来训练。这里的 气候寒冷(冬天经常降至-20°C以下),从11月到3月份期间 降雪一直不断。这里的雪道适合不同水平的滑雪爱好者, 既有高海拔的高山雪道,也有为初级选手专门设立的雪 道,非常适合不同级别的团队或家庭前来体验。不喜欢滑 雪?没关系,因为亚布力滑雪场还拥有一个巨大的雪橇雪 道以及滑冰场。或者,您也可以只是蜷缩在室内吃着火锅, 暖暖身体。

Most people come to take in Huangshan’s breathtaking, oddly shaped summits and towering pines when the weather is warm. But they’re missing out, because come the cooler weather, the mountains become dramatically cloaked in cloud, adding a mysterious drama to the landscape as you ride the cable cars past its peaks. What’s more, with fewer crowds, this is the best time to take advantage of the mountain’s famed hot springs – all the more atmospheric when their edges are dusted with snow.

大 多 数 人会 选 择 在 天 气 暖 和 的 时候 来 到 黄山,看 看 这 里的怪石奇松。但他们却也错过了一些美好——天气逐渐 转凉,云层中群山若隐若现,当您乘坐缆车经过山顶时,平 添一层神秘的感觉。而且,由于此时游客较少,因此是体验 著名的黄山温泉的最佳时机。特别是当温泉周边都被大雪 覆盖时,更是别具情调。

SEE ICE CRYSTAL TREES 吉林雾凇

China is full of natural wonders – but one of the rarest, and most spectacular, is the frozen fog in Jilin. When conditions are just right, this town, 200 kilometres southwest of Harbin, turns into a literal winter wonderland, as gleaming ice crystals collect on trees lining the Songhua River. The defined, sugar-dusted appearance of the branches is thanks to plenty of airborne moisture and biting cold – sometimes, temperatures drop below -30˚C – so bundle up. Bring your camera and prepare to travel last-minute; even though the fog appears regularly between December and February, it’s never guaranteed.

中国从不乏自然奇观,但最稀有、最壮观的当属吉林雾凇。 只要条件合适,这个位于哈尔滨西南200公里的吉林就成了 名副其实的冬季仙境,松花江畔的松柳凝霜挂雪、戴玉披 银。这种现象是由于空气湿度较大、温度较低造成的,有时 温度甚至会下降至-30摄氏度以下。赶紧带上相机,做好出 行前的准备吧。但需要注意的是,尽管12月至2月期间会定 期出现雾凇,但却无法保证。

The perfect getaway SUV? The Japanese giant has thrown its hat in the crossover ring and is ticking off boxes as it goes, writes Noelle Faulkner.

If you’ve started to notice the shrinking size of SUVs on the road, you’re not imagining things. Well, sort of. In the past few years, almost every manufacturer has released their version of a crossover – a small-sized SUV aimed at grabbing both those who want out of their large people-movers (mostly because the little people they previously had to move are all grown up) and those graduating from a hot hatch into something a bit bigger and adaptable. Since then – and particularly in the last 12 months – the category has exploded to become the fourth most popular type of vehicle in Australia. Making up 11.9 per cent of the market share, crossover SUVs have become a valuable category for makers. So it makes sense, then, that Lexus, with its sharp and sportier new design language in tow, would come charging into the arena.

120

Having only just made its sales floor debut, the UX or “Urban Crossover” might just be the best-looking baby SUV on the market. Think sharp angles, sumptuous details and that whale shark-like spindle grille at the front, cues that follow the design language set by the LC and the LS that says Lexus is not the drowsy maker it was once thought to be. In addition to its low-lying and strikingly sporty stance, the UX boasts an abundance of glass, giving the illusion of space, meticulous placement of switches and dials offering effortless ease-of-use and innovative application of fabrics and craftsmanship, which includes a chic trim inspired by Japanese washi paper. And despite the fact Lexus is yet to offer common options like Apple CarPlay and Android Auto as part of its infotainment system (which is fiddly but not terrible), the

small details still make it stand out from competitors like the BMW X2 and Audi Q3. The UX is available in Australia as both a 2.0-litre inline four-cylinder petrol engine with 126kW under its lid and a hybrid with an output of 131kW that, of course, uses the Japanese maker’s lauded hybrid technology (also the only choice if you want all-wheel drive). If you’re on the lookout for something luxurious, nimble, efficient and dynamic, the UX ticks boxes other don’t. It’s superbly balanced and swiftly responsive, with an impressive and intelligent safety package as standard and a surprising sense of performance-meets-timeless-style on a level that leaves many other manufacturers in the dust. In a market that’s flooding fast, Lexus has certainly made an entrance. And while no one really expected it, we’re glad it did.

完美度假型SUV,谁与争锋? 日本汽车大鳄雷克萨斯进军小型跨界SUV市场。

SPECS Price: From $47,950 (plus on-road costs) Engine: 2.0-litre inline four with hybrid system Max power: 131kW Max torque: 188Nm Kerb weight: 1,625kg (FWD); 1,680kg (AWD) 0-100: 8.5 seconds (FWD); 8.7 seconds (AWD) Fuel economy: 4.5L/100km (combined, FWD); 4.7L/100km (combined, AWD)

如果您已经开始注意到道路上SUV的尺寸 正在逐渐缩小,那么您的观察力还算不错。 在过去的几年内,几乎每家汽车制造商都 推出了他们的跨界车型,即小型SUV,而目 标人群则是那些想放弃大型车(主要是因 为他们的孩子都已经长大了)和那些想换 成更大更舒适的车型的车主。从那时起,特 别是在过去一年当中,这种车型呈现爆炸 式增长,在澳大利亚最受欢迎车型中排第 四位。跨界SUV占据的市场份额达11.9%, 对汽车制造商而言颇有价值。因此,有着鲜 明而充满活力的全新设计的雷克萨斯加入 到这个行列当中也就让人可以理解了。 虽然只是刚刚首次发售,但UX或“城市 跨界” (URBAN CROSSOVER)可以算是 目前市场上最漂亮的小型SUV。这款车有 着锐利的棱角、华丽的细节和霸气的鲨鱼 嘴式进气格栅,继承了雷克萨斯旗下LC和 LS车型的设计格调,已经不再会给人们以 昏昏欲睡的感觉。除了其较低的离地间距 和引人注目的运动外观,UX的车身广泛使 用玻璃材质,给人以空间的错觉,精心布置 的档位和仪表盘用起来更是毫不费力,而

面料和工艺的创新也颇为突出,其中一个 别致的内饰灵感即源自于日本的和纸。尽 管雷克萨斯还没有提供像苹果CARPLAY 和ANDROID AUTO这样的通用选项作为 其信息娱乐系统的一部分(虽然有点可惜, 但还不算糟糕),但其在细节方面的处理 仍然使宝马X2、沃尔沃XC40、奥迪Q3等 竞争对手相形见绌,更是把同平台的丰田 CH-R甩出好几条街。 澳大利亚发售的UX车型一款采用 126KW的2.0升直列四缸汽油发动机,一款 为131KW的混合动力车型(采用的当然是 雷克萨斯备受赞誉的混合动力技术,而且 如果钟爱全轮驱动车型,那么这一款是您 的唯一选择)。如果您期待一款车型集豪 华、灵活、节能和动力十足于一身,那么UX 可谓绝佳之选。这款车有着非常优越的平 衡能力,响应极为快速,标配智能安全系统 同样令人印象深刻,将卓越的性能与有着 永恒魅力的设计融为一体,令许多其它汽 车制造商望尘莫及。在竞争激烈的市场中, 雷克萨斯可谓一炮而红。虽然有点出人意 料,但雷克萨斯UX的确没有让人失望。

In the last few years, rosé has exploded in Australia. When days are warm and the nights balmy, you’ll find locals reaching for rosé rather than traditional white wine. It has become a summer staple, and this sunny season there’s only one rosé you’ll catch us sipping on: Handpicked Wines x Romance Was Born Rosé. The partnership came about when luxury Australian clothing label Romance Was Born designers Anna Plunkett and Luke Sales visited Handpicked Wines Cellar Door and bonded with Handpicked over their mutual love of rosé (who can blame them?) and their desire to bring two creative Australian brands together. Like Romance Was Born’s daring designs, Handpicked don’t stick to the status quo. They’re rule breakers. Where conventional wine labels stick to backyard vines, Handpicked don’t limit themselves to a region or style. The world is their oyster as they hand-pick the world’s best regions to make premium wines. For this specific rosé, the best region was the Yarra Valley. A cool-climate wine 122

region on river plains and rolling hills at the foot of the Great Dividing Range east of Melbourne, the Yarra allows for pinot noir and marsanne to grow with a wide spectrum of flavours and aromas. The year 2017 was a cool vintage and, in the Yarra, harvest was up to two weeks later than the long-term average. A long, slow ripening period allowed gradual development of complex flavours. The fruit was whole-bunch pressed into stainless steel tanks, picking up just enough colour on the way. One portion was fermented in tank; another with skins left from the marsanne pressing. This unusual technique gave the wine extra body, texture and phenolic depth. It was bottled in the July following harvest. If you’re not a rosé sipper, you’ll want to purchase this wine for the bottle alone. The special limited-edition label was designed by Romance Was Born and their dear friend Del Kathryn Barton, the Archibald Prize-winning artist, making it the perfect bottle to take to a friend’s house for a long, lazy lunch.

过去几年,桃红葡萄酒在澳洲大行其道。在日夜气温宜人的 夏季,您会发现更受当地人欢迎的是桃红葡萄酒,而非传统 的白葡萄酒,桃红葡萄酒很快成为夏季的主打酒款。在这个 阳光明媚的季节,如果仅选择一款桃红葡萄酒,那肯定非首 彩与ROMANCE WAS BORN合作的限量版莫属。在澳洲奢 侈服装品牌ROMANCE WAS BORN的设计师安娜·普朗凯 特和卢克·塞勒斯参观首彩酒窖之后,他们对桃红葡萄酒的 喜爱与首彩不谋而合,于是便成就一段合作佳话,把这两个 富 有创 意 的 澳 洲品 牌 结 合在一 起 。与 有着 大 胆 设 计 的 ROMANCE WAS BORN一样,首彩葡萄酒也勇于打破常规。 传统的酒标都会标明具体产地,但首彩却并不局限于一个地 区或一种风格, “五湖四海任遨游,天下佳品由我用”,精心 遴选世界上最好产区的葡萄来酿制顶级葡萄酒。这款桃红葡 萄酒的最佳产区则是亚拉山谷,位于墨尔本市以东大分岭山 脚下的肥沃的冲积平原和起伏的丘陵之上,属于凉爽气候葡 萄酒产区,这里的黑比诺和玛珊拥有多种风味和果香。2017 年是一个凉爽的年份,亚拉山谷葡萄收获的时间要比长期以 来的平均时间晚两个星期,漫长而缓慢的成熟期有利于复杂 风味的逐渐形成。葡萄果实在不锈钢酒槽中整枝压榨,以摄 取充分的颜色。部分在槽中发酵,其它和剩下的果皮与压榨 好的玛珊一起发酵。如此独特的酿造工艺为这款佳酿带来丰 富的酒体、质感以及恰到好处的酚类物质。这款酒于采收季 结束后的7月装瓶,即使您不喜欢桃红葡萄酒,单单为了酒瓶, 您也会掏出钱包。这款特别限量版桃红葡萄酒的酒标是由 ROMANCE WAS BORN及阿契伯尔奖得主德尔·凯瑟琳·巴 顿共同设计,适合带上一瓶与好友悠闲地享受美味午餐。

登峰造极

Sky’s the limit

若提及完美的航空计时腕表,无需舍近求远,百年灵自1938年起 就已经开始打造航空计时腕表。 When it comes to perfecting the craft of pilot watches, look no further than Breitling – they’ve been doing so since 1938.

f you want to know the exact time, you could easily reach for your phone – which is usually within arm’s reach – and see it. While this may seem like a humdrum thing to do, rewind some 80 years and doing so was neither routine nor easy. People relied on clocks and timepieces for the exact time, and those devices had to be up to the task – especially if you were a pilot. Young Willy Breitling recognised the need of reliable timepieces for pilots, and so established the Huit Aviation Department. Huit (the French word for eight) was chosen to recall the eight-day power reserve offered on time instruments and clocks within Breitling in 1930. The aim of the department was to develop onboard clocks, dashboard instruments and chronograph wristwatches that met the strict requirements for military and civil aviation. As World War II was approaching, this caught the attention of the Royal Air Force. Willy understood that aviators and pilots required instruments that were not only highly legible, but also capable of maintaining outstanding functionality even in particularly harsh conditions. Thanks to rigorous testing, each instrument produced could handle the shocks, vibrations, extreme temperatures and magnetism pilots were likely to encounter in the cockpit. It’s this history and character of the company’s past that Breitling has drawn on for inspiration for the Navitimer 8. “With Navitimer 8, we’re honouring not only our rich heritage, but also our pioneering role in building chronographic instruments,” says Breitling CEO Georges Kern. Five models make up the collection, whose inspiration draws heavily on the features of the first onboard clocks and pilot’s wristwatches. The highlight of the watch line is the Navitimer 8 B01 – the number a nod to the Huit Aviation Department – which has many parallels to the original pilot watches and time instruments. The Navitimer 8 B01 features luminous hands against a dark dial – available in black or blue – that once offered pilots ease of readability in any lighting conditions. There’s also the rotating bezel, distinctive triangular pointer, long minute markers and large luminescent Arabic numerals, which reference some of Breitling’s earliest pilot wristwatches. The design doesn’t merely reference pilot watches of the brand’s past; as the military-approved watches of the past were built to the highest quality, so is the Navitimer 8 B01. The self-winding 43-millimetre watch features a ratchet-wheel chronograph with a vertical coupling, has a power reserve of more than 70 hours, and is powered by the in-house Breitling Manufacture Caliber 01. The chronometer is also COSC-certified and has a sapphire case back that has anti-reflective coating. While Breitling’s Navitimer 8 collection is a nod to the past, it’s also propelling the brand into the future.

“WE’RE HONOURING OUR RICH HERITAGE”

果想知道确切时间,您可以随手 拿起放在身旁的手机看一眼即 可。虽然现在看起来这没有什么 特别,但在80年前却并不是如此平常或简 单。 那时的人们依赖时钟和时计来获得准 确时间,因此这些设备必须能够胜任这些 任务,尤其是对于飞行员来说。年轻的威 利·百年灵(Willy Breitling)认识到飞行员 对于可靠时计的迫切需求,于是在1930年成 立“Huit航空飞行部门”。Huit即法语中的数 字“8”,是为了体现计时仪器及钟表所提供 的8天动力储存。 该部门的目标是开发符合军用和民用航 空严格要求的机载时钟、仪表板仪器和计时 腕表。随着当时第二次世界大战的临近,这 引起了皇家空军的注意。  威利理解飞行员需要的仪器不仅要非常 便于读取,而且即使在特别恶劣的条件下也 能保持出色的功能。经过一系列严格的测试, 他们制造的仪器都可以很好地应对驾驶舱 内飞行员可能遇到的碰撞、振荡、极端气温 和磁场影响。 百年灵航空计时超级8腕表(Navitimer  Super 8)的灵感即源于这样的历史和特色。 百年灵首席执行官乔治·克恩(Georges  Kern)说: “这款百年灵航空计时超级8腕 表不仅是致敬我们丰富的遗产,更是致敬我 们在制造计时仪器方面的不断开拓创新。”  该系列共有5款,其灵感均主要汲取自最 初的机载钟表和飞行员腕表。最引人注目 的当属百年灵航空计时8 B01。数字8是致敬 Huit航空飞行部门,这款腕表拥有许多与最 初的航空计时腕表和时间仪器类似的特征。

这款腕表设计有夜光指针,并可搭配黑 色或蓝色表盘,这样的设计可以让飞行员在 任何照明条件下轻松读取时间。此外,旋转 表圈、独特的三角指针、长长的分针和大大 的夜光阿拉伯数字均是参考了百年灵一些 最早的飞行员腕表款式。  不仅设计参考了该品牌之前的飞行员腕 表,由于军用腕表的制作均按照最高质量 标准,这款百年灵航空计时8 B01亦是如此。 其采用百年灵自制01机芯,拥有43毫米表径, 搭载自动上弦计时机芯,其机芯配有纵向离 合系统,可提供70小时以上的动力储存,经 过瑞士官方天文台认证(COSC),并配有 涂有防反射涂层的蓝宝石表底。 百年灵航空计时超级8腕表系列既致敬 过去,也将推动该品牌走向光辉的未来。

There’s something to be said for luxury brands that are able to create a bag or accessory that’s instantly recognisable. It shows that their brand DNA is strong and stands out from the rest. For Bottega Veneta, there are two iconic bags that any woman could easily identify as the brand’s own: the Knot and the Cabat. The Knot has been the go-to evening bag for women since it debuted in 1978. What makes the minaudière so identifiable is the antique-gold knot-shaped closure that’s found on every Knot bag, and from where the clutch gets its name. It’s so loved by the brand and its loyal customers that the Italian luxury goods and high fashion house named a fragrance after it in 2014. Keeping in tradition with the historic design, the bottle cap was the shape of the bag’s iconic knot. While you can’t go wrong with the Knot clutch for evening wear, the Cabat is your perfect day-to-day bag. Because we spend as much time looking at the inside of our bags as we do the outside, the idea of the Cabat came from Bottega Veneta’s goal to create a bag that would be unlined and as beautiful on the inside as the outside. One of the iconic designs of the brand, the tote is completely hand woven from strips of double-faced leather. Australians had the opportunity to get a little taste of the Italian craft sans the plane fare. An exclusive invitation-only event was held at the Australian Centre for Contemporary Art this past November. Artisans from the house's atelier in Montebello were flown in to demonstrate how the Cabat is made. Today, you can shop for many variations of the Knot and Cabat bags. The Knot can be

found in a stretch version and as a clutch, and the most precious Cabat available has been crafted from soft crocodile leather. While these updated designs differ slightly to the older designs, they’re still distinctly recognisable as Bottega Veneta.

HIGHER LIFE

MY HIGHER LIFE

Nicholas Rudaz The COO of Franck Muller talks travel habits, how his love for watches began, and why exceptional timepieces aren’t always great at telling the time...

法穆兰(FRANK MULLER)首席执行官尼古拉斯·鲁达斯 (NICHOLAS RUDAS)向我们阐述了他对腕表的热爱始于何时, 以及不是每一款杰出腕表都可以清楚告知人们时间的原因...

How did you come into the watch world? I’ve always been interested in watches. I had a watch collection when I was a student. When I was young, the Swatch watch was very popular. Living in Switzerland and studying in London, I was able to find rare watches in Switzerland, which I could sell for a profit in London. It was great, as a student, to be paid for my interest. 您是如何走进腕表的世界的? 我一直对腕表很感兴趣,当我还是学生的时候就 收藏了许多腕表。在我年轻的时候,斯沃琪手表 非常流行。当时我在瑞士居住,在伦敦学习。这 样一来,我就能够将在瑞士买到的一些珍稀表 款卖到伦敦赚钱。对于作为一名学生的我来说, 能够靠兴趣赚钱,这种感觉相当不错。

法穆兰有什么独特之处? 法穆兰的独特之处在于其大胆的设计。我们的首 款腕表面世时,其尺寸创行业之先河。当然,法 穆兰腕表的独特之处还在于其功能的复杂性,这 点令其它腕表制造商望尘莫及。如果一间舞厅 里有1,000人佩戴法穆兰腕表,那么您便会发现 1,000种不同的款式,因为每款腕表我们生产的 数量都很少,所以它们几乎都是独一无二的。

您的第一款精美时计是什么品牌的? 第一款是劳力士,然后是卡地亚等品牌。

What is your favourite Franck Muller timepiece to travel with? Well, the Crazy Hours is my favourite watch by far. It shows time in a totally different way – the hours are randomly placed. The problem when travelling though – especially for me who is always travelling to Asia – is that it’s impossible to keep track of the time. It’s just so confusing, because the numbers are in a totally different configuration. To read it, you need to concentrate on the small hand, which gives you the hours, and then you read the minute hand as normal. To make it even more confusing, some numbers are in the exact same position. People look at your watch and assume it has stopped working or it’s in a different time zone. So, I’m happy travelling with my other Franck Muller watches, because I can easily read the time on those!

What makes Franck Muller unique? Franck Muller has always been different in its bold design. At the first presentation of the watches, the size was just totally new to the market. And, of course, the complications – no one else was producing the complications Franck Muller presented in 1982. You could have 1,000 Franck Muller owners in a single ballroom and have 1,000 different watches, because we only produce small numbers of each watch, so they become almost unique.

置是随机放置的。但是在旅行时这款腕表的问 题是可能无法读取上面的时间,特别是对于经常 去亚洲旅行的我来说。表盘数字布局完全不同, 时间的显示令人困惑不已。首先需要集中注意力 从小指针读取小时数,然后像平常一样通过分针 读取分钟数。更令人困惑的是,一些数字所处的 位置完全相同。人们看到您的腕表会以为它已经 停了,或者显示的是不同的时区。所以,我比较喜

What was the first watch you ever owned? The first watch I owned would be a Timex! That was a long time ago now... 您拥有的第一块腕表是什么品牌的? 天美时(TIMEX)!那是很久以前的事了…

What about your first fine timepiece? My first fine timepiece would have been a Rolex, and then Cartier, and so on.

146

欢在旅行时佩戴法穆兰的其它表款,这样读取时 间时就比较容易。

Do you set your watch to local time pre-flight or when you arrive? I try to set it before, as I know it’s the proper way of doing it. Time zones are always confusing and complicated – and I don’t think there is any “proper” way to get over jet lag. 您是在起飞前还是落地后把腕表设置成当地时间? 我是在起飞前设置,我知道这样才是正确的。时 区比较复杂,总是令人感到困惑,我不认为有什 么“适当”的方法来克服时差。

Over the years, what has been your favourite Franck Muller watch? I think the Vanguard case that came out three to four years ago. It has bold design and was very different while keeping the strong DNA of Franck Muller with its curved design. It did 您最喜欢在旅行时佩戴法穆兰的哪款腕表? 截至目前我最喜欢的一款是“CRAZY HOURS”。 well at a time when the watch industry was 这款腕表显示时间的方式完全与众不同,指针位 slowing down. It continues to do well today. 这些年来,您最喜欢法穆兰的哪款腕表? 我想大概是三到四年前的VANGUARD。我再次 强调一下,这款腕表的设计非常大胆,非常与众 不同,但其圆弧形设计仍然保留着法穆兰强大的 DNA。虽然推出的时候整个腕表行业都不太景 气,但这款腕表却表现得相当不错,而且现在的 势头仍不减当年。
