hina is set to ring in the Year of the Pig with colourful fireworks, hundreds and thousands of red lanterns and envelopes, and delicious spreads of traditional foods. Citysiders will return to their home towns to celebrate the country’s longest holiday with their families. Meanwhile, if there’s one country that celebrates Chinese New Year almost as much as China, it’s Australia. It holds the second largest Chinese New Year festival in the world (outside of China). Sydney and Melbourne’s Chinatowns are packed with people as lion dances and parades make their way through. To celebrate the festive season, we chatted to some of Australia’s leading Chinese personalities, chefs and designers about what makes the festivities Down Under so special. The China National Tourist Office would like to wish you a healthy, happy and prosperous Year of the Pig. HIGHER VIEW ISSUE 29 Editor Constantina Demos constantina@citrusmedia.com.au

Nestled in the lively inner Sydney suburb of Waterloo, Crown Group’s latest development, Mastery, is set to become the beating heart of the harbourside city.

Featuring a striking plant-filled green exterior, the building has been purposefully designed to emulate a stacked forest. Drawing upon the idea of “green luxury”, Kuma and fellow architects sought for the precinct to be an extension of the environment while still offering the contemporary amenities that meet today’s global standard of luxury. Whether it be for a post-work tipple, a dose of retail therapy or a weekend getaway, Mastery is going to be the destination of choice for Sydneysiders and international visitors alike. 40

春节感悟
In the eye of the beholder
Lisa Perkovic chats to the country’s taste makers, leaders and community members to find out just what it means to celebrate Chinese New Year Down Under. 我们采访了澳大利亚的厨师、文化引 领者及社区民众，以了解中国新年在 澳大利亚的庆祝意义。
Jimmy Liu Chairman of the Chinese Cultural Centre, Sydney The Chinese Cultural Centre was established in Chatswood, Sydney in 1996, and since then has been charged with promoting and preserving Chinese culture in Australia through exhibitions, classes and seminars. This year will mark a decade of partnership between the Centre and Willoughby City Council to host the annual Chinese New Year celebrations. What is the significance of Chinese New Year? In China it’s a significant event marked by a long national holiday, splendid entertainment and sumptuous meals. Here in Australia, the scale is much smaller, but it’s still an opportunity to get together and enjoy the festivities, to celebrate the arrival of the new zodiac and to farewell the old zodiac. Some of the most common traditions are the dragon and lion dance, the New Year’s Eve dinner, and fireworks and firecrackers to ward away evil spirits.

Valerie Khoo Curator, Sydney Lunar Festival In its third decade, the City of Sydney’s 10day celebration is the largest Lunar New Year festival outside of Asia and brings more than 1.3 million people to the city in 2019. This year’s curator and local artist, Valerie Khoo, brings a unique creative outlook to the celebrations. How has the festival evolved? The festival has grown bigger and better every year. It started off as a small event for the Chinese community, and now it’s on the calendar for all Australians. There are activities all over city, on the harbour and down in Darling Harbour, including talks, performances and lots of food. You can join the celebrations regardless of the culture you’re from.

悉尼中国文化中心主席 中国文化中心 于19 96 年 在 悉 尼 的 查茨伍德（Chatswood）成立，此 后一直致力于通过展览、讲座和研 讨会在澳大利亚推广和保护中国文 化。今年将是该中心和威洛比市政厅 （Willoughby City Council）合作举 办一年一度的春节庆祝活动的第十个 年头。 春节的意义何在？ 在中国，这是一个重要的节日，标志着漫长 的法定假期、精彩的娱乐活动和丰盛的美 食。在澳大利亚，虽然庆祝的规模要小得多， 但它仍然是辞旧创新、聚会庆祝的绝佳机会。 春节期间，最常见的活动有舞龙舞狮、丰盛 的年夜饭及燃放烟花爆竹以驱邪辟害。
What makes the Sydney Lunar Festival so unique? This isn’t a replica of Lunar New Year in Asia. It’s a truly Sydney experience, spearheaded by Asian Australians who live in Sydney, who are taking wonderful bits of their cultural heritage and infusing it with incredible bits of this city. Personally, I think Sydney in summer is a pretty amazing backdrop – seeing the dragon boat races on one of the best harbours in the world is something else. And seeing the Lunar Lantern art installations lining Circular Quay that have been created and designed by some of Australia’s best artists, who understand the significance of the occasion, is very special. >

Chris Ran Lin Designer, Melbourne Up-and-coming Melbourne designer Chris Ran Lin came to Melbourne from China at the age of 15. With his collection now stocked in Australia, Hong Kong and mainland China, he draws influence from the past and the present in his evocative pieces. What inspires your work? I’m inspired by people and the things around me, particularly architecture. I’m also influenced by my past. My mother was a dressmaker in China, so I spent my childhood helping her, working with fabric, learning about colour. What does it mean to you to be a Chinese-Australian designer? As a country, we’re so multicultural. People accept what they see, they try to understand others and they’re not afraid of new concepts. That gives me the opportunity to experiment
with my work. Outside of Australia, people look to our fashion because we offer that difference; we offer something really different and diverse compared to what’s in America, Europe and Asia. What does Chinese New Year mean to you? It’s a time for family, but in Melbourne it’s really interesting because it’s not just the Chinese celebrating. Vietnamese, South East Asian Australians – we all come together to celebrate the Lunar New Year. You can see all the different backgrounds celebrating together, and even though you’re not celebrating in China, it makes you feel part of something great.

冉冉升起的墨尔本设计师林然在15岁 时从中国来到墨尔本。他从过去和现 在的时光中汲取创作灵感，从而唤起 我们的美好回忆。他的作品现已风靡 澳大利亚、香港和中国大陆。 您作品的灵感源自何处？ 我的灵感源自身边的人和事物，特别是建 筑。我也会从过去的时光中找寻灵感。以前 在中国的时候，我的母亲是一位裁缝。所以 在小的时候，我就帮着母亲裁剪面料，并开 始了解颜色。 成为一名华裔设计师对您来说意味着什么？ 澳大利亚是一个有着多元文化的国家，人们 接受他们所看到的，试图了解他人，并不害 怕新的概念，这让我有机会做不同的尝试。 在澳大利亚以外的地区，人们关注我们的时 尚，因为我们能够呈现这种差异，并且所呈 现出来的内容与美国、欧洲和亚洲的所呈现 出来的截然不同。 春节对您来说意味着什么？ 春节的美好时光是属于家庭的，但在墨尔本， 事情变得非常有趣，因为不仅仅是中国人在 庆祝，还有越南人和东南亚裔澳大利亚人， 大家都聚在一起庆祝春节。您可以看到有着 不同文化背景的人欢聚一堂，即使未置身中 国，却也感同身受。

Jason Margaritis Head chef, Donna Chang, Brisbane Hailing from Neil Perry’s prestigious Spice Temple kitchens, head chef Jason Margaritis is at the helm of Brisbane’s brand-new Donna Chang restaurant, transforming modern Chinese fare from the old-world glamour of a beautiful heritage-listed building. What's your favourite Chinese New Year dish? Longevity noodles. These uncut long-thread noodles symbolise a long and happy life. My close second would be steamed whole fish, which symbolises surplus and wealth. It’s a must-have for any Chinese New Year banquet. How do you think the Chinese food scene has changed in Australia? Chinese food has been a part of Australia's food culture since the ’70s, from the first big waves of Hong Kong migration. Many Australians recall their favourite suburban Chinese restaurant staples – usually battered, fried, overly sauced or heavily seasoned with MSG – but now, Chinese restaurants give the key elements of Chinese/Cantonese cooking using Australia’s best produce. The top Chinese restaurants in Australia promote authentic Chinese flavours while focusing on balanced and well-executed dishes.

Gail Giles-Gidney, Mayor, Willoughby City Council, Sydney In Sydney’s north, Willoughby City brings together a great mix of cultures. With 24 per cent of those residents of Chinese ancestry, Willoughby becomes a hub for local Chinese New Year celebrations. How does the community embrace Chinese New Year? There’s an excitement and optimism in the community. This year, alongside our annual day of celebrations, Willoughby City will be hosting a three-week-long cultural celebration for the Lunar New Year: the Chatswood Year of the Pig Festival. During Chinese New Year, Chatswood comes to life with terrific shopping and food destinations. It’s the perfect time to showcase all that is Chatswood.

Why is Chinese New Year such a special celebration to you? It’s one of my life mottos that you cannot know where you are going unless you appreciate where you came from. Celebrating Chinese New Year is a great reminder of that. It’s nice to set aside at least one day to have dinner with your family without any distractions from the outside world. How does your family and your Peranakan heritage influence your desserts? My earliest memories of my childhood were sitting in the kitchen rolling sweet glutinous rice dumpling with my mother and grandma. I like to create desserts that reflect those memories, and tell a story.

What makes Chinese New Year so special to your family? Tradition. It’s an opportunity to reflect on our busy lives, to remind ourselves of who we are and to be thankful for the past year. We learn from challenges and welcome the year of opportunities ahead. And it’s about celebrating with extended family, friends and colleagues. How has Golden Century changed the Australian dining scene? Golden Century has been run by my family since 1989 and we’ve been constantly reminded that the consistency of Golden Century is what brings people back. The food and flavours bring back memories of meals people have had with their grandparents, or on their birthdays or graduations. What’s ahead for Golden Century in 2019? We’re expanding the original Golden Century in Chinatown, adding a third level to host additional private dining rooms with an emphasis on fine wine and refined Cantonese dining. We’re also opening a new venue mid-2019 at Darling Square inside The Exchange building. This public domain building, designed by renowned Kengo Kuma, will soon house the Sydney City Library and will be a central meeting place in the precinct. Our new restaurant, yet to be named, will be the next chapter in our family of restaurants, and I want it to be the beginning of another legacy, another long-standing restaurant. The concept will be a modern and different dining experience, yet relatable to feel familiar, comfortable and welcoming.

WULINGYUAN
W
ith more than 3,000 towering quartzite sandstone pillars marooned over millennia by wind and water, Wulingyuan boasts an otherworldly and ancient landscape. Yet it’s only recently that it has been thrust into the international spotlight. To many visitors, the Wulingyuan Scenic and Historic Interest Area is home to the “Avatar mountains” since it was this ethereal mountain range that inspired the topography of Hollywood director James Cameron’s science-fiction blockbuster. Located on the north-western edge of Hunan, a mountainous, landlocked province in China’s south, Wulingyuan’s scenery is among the most spectacular on earth, but also some of its most rugged. Jagged forested peaks, steep cliffs and deep canyons locked the region outside of public consciousness for centuries; however, its rapid rise as a tourist destination began in 1979, when Wu Guanzhong, one of China’s greatest contemporary painters, put its mysterious, often mist-shrouded landscape to canvas. After producing a series of masterworks commissioned by the Hunan government, the awestruck artist penned a travelogue, Unknown to the World, in which he claimed the region’s beauty surpassed any other in China. Wu singled out the wild terrain of Zhangjiajie on the western edge of Wulingyuan, comparing the area to a precious but lost pearl. “In order to pursue the beauty of painting, I have been to many famous mountains, but I feel that the unknown Zhangjiajie is much more beautiful than the Yandang Range [in Zhejiang province, south of Shanghai], the Wuyi Range [in the southern province of Fujian] and others. The fantastic landscape is as good as Guilin, but the mountains here are much more mysterious, centralised, splendid and untamed.” Wu’s words were heeded and, in 1982, Zhangjiajie National Forest Park was named China’s first national park, followed by Suoxi Valley Nature Reserve, Tianzi Mountain Nature Reserve and the Yangjiajie Scenic Area. In 1992, the Wulingyuan Scenic Area, which contains these four protected areas, was named a UNESCO World Heritage Site. >
武
陵源拥有3,000余座高耸入云的 石英砂岩峰林，经过数千年的风 吹水蚀，呈现出超凡脱俗的远古 景观。然而，直到最近这里才引起国际社会 的关注。对于许多游客来说，武陵源风景名 胜区是“阿凡达山”的所在地。受这里空灵 毓秀的山脉的启发，好莱坞导演詹姆斯·卡 梅隆（James Cameron）把这里作为其 科幻大片的取景地。 湖南省是中国南部的一个多山的内陆省 份，武陵源即位于该省的西北部。这里的风 景堪称地球上最壮观、也是最崎岖的景观 之一。几个世纪以来，嶙峋葱翠的岩峰、壁 立千仞的悬崖和深邃幽密的峡谷使其一直 没有进入公众的视线。直到1979年，这里作 为一个旅游目的地才声名鹊起。当时中国 最伟大的当代画家吴冠中将这里云雾缭绕
的神秘景观呈现于画作当中。在受湖南省 政府委托创作了一系列作品之后，这位艺 术家怀着敬畏之心写下一篇名为《养在深 闺人未识》的旅行日记，并声称“武陵源之 美，中国无出其右者”。吴冠中特别提到武 陵源西侧的张家界，将这里比作“迷失的 珍宝”。“为了追求绘画之美，我去过许多 名山，但我觉得籍籍无名的张家界远比浙江 雁荡山和福建武夷山等为美。这里奇妙的 景观和桂林一样美，但这里的山脉更加神 秘而集中、壮观而原始。”吴冠中的话后来 得到印证。1982年，张家界国家森林公园成 为中国第一个国家公园，此后则是索溪峪 自然保护区、天子山自然保护区和杨家界风 景区。1992年，由这四大保护区组成的武 陵源风景区被联合国教科文组织列为世界 遗产地。 >

WULINGYUAN
With 560 scenic sights from caves to lakes, natural bridges, plunging valleys, vertical cliffs and, of course, those signature sandstone pillars, it’s difficult to know where to begin a journey through Wulingyuan. While Zhangjiajie has some of the most famous landscapes, all four of the nature reserves that make up the UNESCO World Heritage Site are equally rewarding. Despite the extensive infrastructure projects that have made Wulingyuan accessible to tourists, luxury hotel chains have been unable to establish a significant foothold. The exceptions are the Pullman Zhangjiajie and Crowne Plaza Zhangjiajie Wulingyuan, both of which are popular with international tour groups and a short trip away from spectacular Baofeng Lake, a 75-metre deep body of water flanked by near-vertical cliffs. The only way to explore the lake is by tourist boats, which make two short stops during their 30-minute circuit for passengers to be serenaded with songs from the local Tujia minority. The limited high-end accommodation offerings have been a boon for enterprising locals. Homeward Mountain Hotel is a family-owned boutique hotel in a tranquil river valley on the western edge of the scenic area with an outdoor swimming pool and spacious rooms. It’s a great base to explore the western side of the scenic area. The entrance gate to Yangjiajie, named after the local Yang clan, is just a short drive away. A four-day pass to Wulingyuan Scenic Area costs RMB 248 (around $50) per person. Some shuttle buses are covered by this ticket, but not all. A visitor can also expect to pay for attractions such as the world’s longest (430-metre) and highest (300-metre) glass bridge across the Zhangjiajie Grand Canyon (RMB 35 one-way) and the Bailong Elevator, which rises 335 metres in little more than a minute (RMB 72 one-way). Chairlifts and entry to historic villages are also extra. >

Entering via the Yangjiajie gate, shuttle buses deliver you to the scenic area with a winding 45-minute journey, but the cableway is a much swifter and spectacular route to the same destination at RMB 100 each way. In less than 10 minutes, the cableway to Wuling Village glides over treetops, through narrow gullies and past stone formations with small trees clinging to them in improbable fashion. Upon arrival, local sedan chairs are on offer as a regal mode of transport to Ecstasy Terrace, a natural bridge across a narrow canyon, at RMB 400 each way. Local food options include stinky tofu (a coal-black Hunan specialty that can be smelled long before it’s seen), diverse grilled skewers and spicy cold noodles, while less adventurous diners can enjoy KFC. Across from the cableway, restaurants and bus station is Yuan Family Village.

Guided tours (in Mandarin only) are included in the entry fee and conclude with an ethnic song and dance show. The shuttle bus journey to Tianzi Mountain in Zhangjiajie takes 40 minutes through hairpin bends and more majestic views. From the edge of the plateau one can get a sense of the sheer scale of this landscape formed by sedimentary rocks more than 300 million years ago. Over time, quartzite proved a far sturdier material than limestone, which was eroded away to leave rows upon rows of narrow stone pillars. The highest of these natural skyscrapers reaches a height of 1,262 metres – well over twice the height of the world’s second tallest building, the Shanghai Tower. This breathtaking view is more than worth the journey, although visitors may have to wait their turn to enjoy an uninterrupted view of the magnificent expanse. >

Tourists flock to Wulingyuan throughout the year, with the October national holidays the peak season. Just as the magnificent landscape has inspired world-renowned artists, the same can be said for the legions of amateur photographers drawn to it. Gates open at 7:30am. Early birds are rewarded with short queues and the best light for photography, but as gates close at 6pm, those hoping to capture the sunset may be disappointed in the warmer months. Arrive late and expect to be jostled on narrow tracks by waves of tour groups mainly consisting of Chinese retirees. For a more intimate encounter with the landscape, guests at Homeward Mountain Hotel can venture into Qifeng Valley, just a short walk down an unmade road by a rushing stream. This valley, which you’re unlikely to find in any guide book, lies outside the bounds of the national park, but still has the same signature narrow jagged peaks. The perspective from the valley floor is entirely different from what’s seen from the plateaus of the Wulingyuan Scenic Area. Visit in the early evening and walk up the narrowing valley to the sound of cascading water and birdsong. A stone path leads to two small twin waterfalls. As night begins to fall, fireflies appear. The serenity is a welcome contrast to the tourist hustle of the still more spectacular national park. Sometimes, the ultimate luxury is having such natural beauty entirely to oneself, even for just a moment. 60

t was the 1940s when the Bay Steamers ceased, the once crucial passenger ferries linking Melbourne to the Bellarine Peninsula giving way to rail and road. Once out of sight for travellers, the destination was out of mind too: everyone can tell you about the Mornington Peninsula, but not so many can tell you about the Bellarine. However, 80 years later, the Bellarine has a fresh beginning. A new ferry service connects visitors from Melbourne’s Docklands to Portarlington in 75 minutes – and the Bellarine is ready with a number of new hotel and restaurant openings for the luxury market. “The Bellarine is a hidden gem. It’s relaxed and friendly with little coastal villages surrounded by farmland, world-class beaches and golf courses, and rolling hills filled with wineries, farm gates and producers – all within a 90-minute drive of Melbourne,” says Claire Gemes, manager of Lon Retreat, located in Lonsdale. Lon is just one of the many new luxury accommodation options to open in 2018, including Campbell Point House on the edge of Lake Connewarre, the striking accommodation pods at The Nest, and 15 new glamping tents established at Terindah Estate. However, none have quite the enviable magic of Lon. It’s located on a 200-acre property owned by seven generations of Gemes’ family at Port Lonsdale. The >

The adults-only retreat offers seven suites, and includes a spa with three treatment rooms and which is open to the public. Natural mineral springs also run in subterranean limestone caves beneath the property. One hundred years ago, Gemes’ ancestors dug by hand to source the waters, installing a windmill to pipe the mineral water to troughs across the property. “Today, we pipe these mineral springs into our heated mineral pool, the stone baths in our Lon Spa and also directly into the baths of our two premium suites, Alto and Cumulus.”
WHISK YOURSELF AWAY Lon is just one of many new businesses to test the waters in the area. “Because we’re out on the end of the peninsula, people have failed to come out here – so we’ve stayed a nice little quiet pocket,” says local Russ Watson, who established Bellarine Distillery in 2015. “But people are starting to find their way back down here.” The seven-and-a-half-acre distillery is located along an old Cobb & Co route at the foot of three valleys. >

Along with the distillery, Watson built The Whiskery, a sleek refurbished shed and cellar door that has emerged as a favourite Bellarine attraction. Along with serving local beer and wine, the cellar door showcases the distillery’s first drop: a contemporary Australian gin called Teddy & The Fox. However, whisky requires patience. The first batch will be ready in 2020, and is currently ageing in repurposed pinot noir wine barrels sourced from his next-door neighbour at Scotchmans Hill wines. “We wanted something that was going to be light and salty and a lot of floral, so we decided to source our casks locally, because we wanted to give it that real terroir, that real provenance of Scotchmans Road and Northern Bellarine,” Watson says.
TRAIL BLAZING It’s this creativity and willingness to work with other producers that’s becoming the hallmark of the Bellarine community. Recognising the growing momentum around the artisanal food scene, the Bellarine Taste Trail was developed to highlight the best of the region’s produce to visitors, showcasing over 50 food and wine destinations from farm gates selling fresh mussels (a local specialty) to cellar doors featuring cool-climate wines.

意识到手工食品日益受欢 迎的势头，Bellarine Taste Trail的开发是为了向游客展示 该地区最好的食材，以及50多 家出售新鲜贻贝（当地特产） 的农场和生产凉爽气候葡萄 酒的酒庄。 “我认为这些商贩真正可爱 的地方在于他们意识到我们 每个人的成功取决于我们所 有人的成功，”沃森说。 Jack Rabbit餐厅行政主 厨德怀恩·伯克（Dwayne Bourke）对此表示赞同。 “我们在吉朗（Geelong） 有一个很棒的蘑菇 供应商， 他实际上用我们用过的咖啡 渣来种植蘑菇，这样种出来 的平菇非常美味。” 这间现代的高级餐厅位于 葡萄园内，可以一览无余的将 葡萄园至海岸的景致尽收眼 底，此外还有一间酒吧咖啡厅 和一个直升机停机坪，满足不 同游客的需求。 伯克说： “目前贝拉林着实

“I think what’s really lovely among the traders is that they realise the success of each of us is really dependent on the success of all of us,” Watson says. Executive chef Dwayne Bourke of Jack Rabbit Vineyard restaurant agrees. “We’ve got a beautiful mushroom supplier out in Geelong now, and he actually uses our used coffee grounds to grow his mushrooms in. We’ve been able to then have some fantastic oyster mushrooms,” Bourke says. Jack Rabbit features a contemporary fine-dining restaurant with sweeping views across the vines to the coast, a cellar door and cafe – and for those who like to arrive in style, its own helipad. “It’s really exciting on the Bellarine at the moment with the array of produce and the real artisan approach to food that we’re getting down there,” Bourke says. “We try to utilise what we can out of the bay in front of us – flathead, mussels, oysters, snapper – but our primary focus is using local producers, getting as much from within a 10-15 kilometre radius of the restaurant as we can.”
Jack Rabbit’s menu includes Bellarine beef farmed by a local butcher and Drysdale goat cheese produced just down the road. It also includes the vineyard’s own herd of lamb, which graze between the vines. “It’s just a good energy around the food scene down here,” Bourke says, adding that what’s most remarkable, for him, is the growing sense of pride in the area. “The wineries and producers have always been very good, but lately they’ve lifted their game. They’re getting the word out that the Bellarine isn’t just somewhere you drive through on the way to the surf coast; instead, it’s a destination in itself. I’m really excited to be a part of it.”

For those who like a touch of Indiana Jones with their luxury holiday, Guilin Insiders offers on and off-road thrills in two kinds of iconic vehicles, each with a unique place in Chinese history: the 1950s Chang Jiang (Yangtze) motorcycle sidecar, one of the first mass-produced vehicles in the People’s Republic of China, and the 1960s Beijing Jeep, a hardy military and civilian four-wheel drive that has been in production for more than half a century. “These Chang Jiang sidecars are perfect for Guilin,” says Gerard Chin, an “Insider” who conducts tours with both vehicles. “They’re small enough for the narrow alleys in the old mountain villages, way better at off-roading than other two-wheelers and, of course, they look very cool.” >

“WE ZOOM UP THE STEEP BUT SMOOTH ROADS, STOPPING ONCE TO WAIT FOR A WANDERING HERD OF CATTLE TO CLEAR OUR PATH”
Guilin Insiders has seven Chang Jiang sidecar motorcycles, a vehicle with a complicated pedigree. The Chang Jiang is close copy of a 1938 German BMW R71. Its journey to China began when the Soviet Union reverse engineered and mass-produced the sturdy machine to help its Red Army counter the impending Nazi invasion. The vehicle found its way to China in 1957 in a Sino-Soviet exchange of technology. Mass production commenced in Nanchang and the Chang Jiang was born. Although Chinese manufacture ceased in 1997, its Russian relative, the Ural, is still assembled in Siberia. On a sunny late summer afternoon, we arrive at the Insiders garage near the Club Med Guilin resort. Gerard, a Malaysian, and his Chinese counterpart Xiong Yi wheel out two gleaming sidecar motorcycles, one white, the other metallic blue. We slide into the surprisingly comfortable leather interiors of our sidecars and we’re off and away. We zoom up the steep but smooth roads, stopping once to wait for a wandering herd of cattle to clear our path. Other times, we halt to admire views of Guilin’s world-famous zigzagging sandstone peaks, formed over millennia. Our motorbikes climb the hills until we reach Lie Dan, a village with stone buildings dating from the end of the Qing dynasty more than 100 years ago. >

The next day, after a long rest, a sleep-in and a leisurely late breakfast at Club Med Guilin, we’re ready to see more of the countryside, this time from an open-top Beijing Jeep. While the design is certainly vintage with a chassis that has remained unchanged since the 1960s, this BJ2020 is equipped with a reliable Toyota HiLux 2.0L engine first produced in the 1980s, and an MP3 player disguised as a cassette deck. Gerard proves himself to be an excellent singer as we weave up the hills to Queen’s Greatest Hits. Our destination is Xianggong Mountain. A row of more than a dozen tripods on the way up gives a clue as to just how popular this area is with amateur photographers. It’s mid-afternoon, but ardent snappers have already reserved their pole positions for the sunset over rows of distant mountains across a wide floodplain. And we’re not even at the most scenic view yet. Xianggong was a mostly unknown karst hill until a local photographer took
out a bronze award at an international photography competition with a view from high above the west bank of the Li River in Yangshuo County. The peak is reached after a 15-minute hike up steep steps that lead from a car park. The ideal time to capture the panoramic view is at dawn, but the view across the stunning landscape can be enjoyed throughout the day from a three-tiered viewing platform. It’s even more enjoyable with a glass of champagne, which Guilin Insiders can provide along with a picnic hamper. Insiders don’t just offer these unique tours in Guilin, but also in Shanghai, Sanya, Xi’an, eastern Guizhou, and even Marrakesh in Morocco.

vintage flair. “I started Insiders to combine my three passions: travel, meeting people and vintage vehicles,” Chabrieres says. Guilin Insiders tours and excursions can be arranged directly through Insiders Experience or via local hotels such as Club Med Guilin or Li River Resort, an Australian-operated boutique resort in Yangshuo overlooking the famous waterway. If racing through the countryside on a motorcycle sidecar or exploring the landscape in an open-top jeep doesn’t sound exciting enough, Guilin Insiders has also helped Club Med Guilin set up an adrenalinefuelled way to explore the resort’s more than 100 sculptures set over 46 hectares of lush scenery: tours by dune buggy. According to Oli Clark, originally from England and general manager of Guilin Insiders, the resort’s six speedy buggies are what you get when you cross a 250cc motor with the weight of a “toaster oven.” Not to be confused with a quad bike, the buggies are almost impossible to flip and are also equipped with roll bars. “We like to say our motorcycle sidecar tours show the cultural side of Guilin and our Jeep tours show the scenic side. Riding in these buggies is like letting the scenery hit you in the face,” Clark jokes.

N EW K I DS ON T H E B LOCK “新秀”登场
Anastasia Barrat meets some of the new generation of Barossa Valley producers – and discovers that they’re keeping things fresh in more ways than one. 阿纳斯塔西娅·巴拉特（Anastasia Barrat）采访了一些 芭萝莎谷（Barossa Valley）的生产商“新秀”，了解他 们多种多样的“保鲜”秘诀。
J
ust a scenic hour-and-a-half drive from Adelaide’s CBD you’ll find yourself in the heartland of Australia’s wine country, the Barossa Valley. Steeped in history, the region is home to more than 550 grape-growing families, many with the sixth generation still working the same plot of land. But it’s a new wave of establishments that are redefining South Australia’s wine-country flavour, streamlining access to premium produce and experiences with their unique Barossa charm.
GIN FOR THE WIN
When police officer turned classical musician Nicole and corporate finance husband Jon Durdin packed away their lives in the UK and returned home to the Barossa to start a gin distillery, they had no idea their career shift would be the best decision they’d ever made. 78
While Nicole had some familiarity with the wine industry – her parents owned their very own winery – the same can’t be said for her insight into gin. “I didn’t even know there were juniper berries in gin before all of this!” she laughs. Undeterred, the couple set out with a thirst for knowledge and learned all they could about distilling. They attended expos and seminars, and even completed a course at London’s prestigious Institute of Brewing and Distilling before heading back Down Under. “We saw an opportunity to bring back craft distilling to the Barossa and reinvigorate this tradition,” Nicole continues. “There are some amazing wineries in the Barossa. We wanted to develop a business and products that could sit alongside these, complement the current offerings, and provide a different opportunity and experience for visitors to the region.” And with that, the Durdins’ master plan came to fruition as they opened Seppeltsfield Road Distillers in 2017. Creating small-batch Barossa gin in their purpose-built distillery, the couple’s focus remains making the bestquality beverages using the best of the region’s ingredients. It’s this focus on sourcing local botanicals that has been largely responsible for the new establishment’s success. “We hand-harvest pink peppercorns from heritage wines near the distillery, source local lavender from a grower just across the road and are planting a distillery garden so we can grow some of our own botanicals,” Nicole says. >

路风景如画，从阿德莱德中央商 务区驱车一个小时，即可置身于 澳大利亚葡萄酒之乡芭萝莎谷的 中心地带。该地区有着悠久的历史，共拥有 逾550个葡萄种植家族，其中许多已经传承 了六代之多。但一波新的浪潮正在重新定义 南澳大利亚人的口味，让人们可以更轻松地 享用芭萝莎优质的食材并收获独具特色的 体验。
醇美杜松子酒 当曾身为警员的古典音乐家妮可（Nicole） 和在公司财务部门工作的丈夫乔恩·杜尔丁 （Jon Durdin）离开英国，回到他们芭萝莎 的家乡开办杜松子酒酿酒厂时，他们尚不知 道这次令人颇为不解的职业转变将成为他 们最好的决定。 虽然妮可的父母拥有自己的酒庄，她对 葡萄酒行业算是略有了解，但对杜松子酒却 是闻所未闻。
“在此之前，我甚至都不知道杜松子酒 中有杜松子！”她笑道。 这对夫妇并没有选择退缩，他们渴望学 习所有关于酿酒的知识，参加博览会及研讨 会，甚至在著名的伦敦酿酒和蒸馏研究所完 成课程后才回到澳大利亚。 “我们看到了让手工蒸馏工艺重返芭萝 莎并重现辉煌的机会。芭萝莎有着令人惊叹 的葡萄酒厂，而我们则希望建立的企业和开 发的产品能够与现有的共存并形成互补，为 芭萝莎地区的游客提供多种多样的选择和 体验。” 于是，杜尔丁的整体规划于2017年开花 结果，Seppeltsfield Road Distillers应运而 生。这对夫妇在他们专门建造的酿酒厂中小 批量制作芭萝莎杜松子酒，重点使用该地 区最好的原料来生产最优质的酒水。这家 新企业的成功，在很大程度上要归功于对于 当地植物的选购。 “我们从酿酒厂附近的传 统葡萄园中亲手采摘粉红胡椒，从马路对面 的农庄采购当地的薰衣草，并打造自己的花 园，这样我们就可以自己种植一些植物，” 妮可说道。 >

OLD BRIGHTENED BY NEW
A five-minute drive from Seppeltsfield Road Distillers you’ll find Rosenvale Vineyards. The cellar door pays homage to the vineyards’ rich history, its warehouse exterior sitting comfortably in its lush vineyard surrounds. “As custodians of Barossa soils since 1858, we wanted this chapter of our family story to be a reflection of what we do with a timeless connection and sense of grandeur on an industrial level,” cellar-door manager Joanne Shaw says. This is no cookie-cutter cellar-door experience. As you step inside the warehouse, you’ll be greeted by music and people flowing in and out of the outdoor space, couples resting on luxe ottomans with glasses of wine in hand, and large groups laughing and enjoying their Sunday in the private tasting area. There’s a lively buzz in the air and an atmosphere that oozes modern sophistication.
80
As Shaw notes, there’s a fine line between dancing to the beat of your own drum and respecting the family legacy – a juggling act many of the region’s next-generation owners are facing. But the Barossa seems to have balanced its complexities just like a good wine should. “The Barossa has been blessed with a desire by the next generations to make their mark, whether it be by building on great Barossa family wine legacies or creating their own path. Both of these show the diverse nature of Barossa vineyards,” Shaw says. And rest assured, the food hasn’t been forgotten at Rosenvale Vineyards. Their refined menu lets the Barossa’s produce shine. “Our grazing boards are the highlight on our menu. We source all the food from as many local producers and suppliers from in and around the Barossa as possible to complement the stunning wine we produce.” >

THE BRAINS TRUST
The phrase “the more, the merrier” certainly rings true for winemaking group Artisans of Barossa. Established in 2005, the group is composed of five wineries, which together aim to encourage and promote individual expression in Barossa winemaking through projects that build connections throughout the local wine community. The group’s new wine bar, Vino Lokal, opened its doors on January 4 this year, and is redefining the tasting experience. “Being completely different to a traditional tasting room when you walk in, stand there and go through everything they have on offer, Vino Lokal provides customers with a brand-new approach to wine enjoyment,” business development manager Cho Sun says. “We focus on the overall experience as much as the wines themselves.” Both interactive and educational, guests can expect to settle into their bar stools and learn about the region’s unique growing conditions while nibbling and sipping on perfectly paired food and wines. “We’re not here to help you pick one standout bottle from the styles you’ve been enjoying in the past, but rather to introduce new varieties, wine styles and individual winemaking expressions to you,” Cho says. Artisans of Barossa isn’t resting on its recent success. It’s already working on the next project – a new culinary and wine centre to open by early 2020. The centre will include a wine lounge and restaurant and offers an expansive range of local artisan wine and food for tasting and purchase. Keep watch. There’s no denying ambition runs through Barossa locals’ veins, and the next generation is set to reshape the region as more than merely a haven for wine lovers. Whether it be for a G&T or a hearty meal, the Barossa is well worth the drive.

独特经营理念 对葡萄酒酿造集团Artisans of Barossa来 说， “越多越好”这一理念颇符合其经营哲 学。该集团成立于2005年，共由5个葡萄酒 厂组成，旨在通过与当地葡萄酒社区建立联 系来鼓励和促进芭萝莎酿酒业的特色发展。 该集团于今年1月4日刚刚开业的全新酒 吧Vino Lokal正在对“品酒体验”进行重新 定义。 “Vino Lokal与传统品酒室完全不同，您 可以走进去品鉴他们所提供的一切，以一种 全新的方式来享用葡萄酒。我们对顾客体 验和葡萄酒本身同样重视，”业务开发经理 Cho Sun解释说。 无论是交谈还是聆听，顾客都可以舒适 地坐在吧凳上了解该地区独特的生长条件， 同时品尝完美搭配的美酒美食。 “我们不是 来帮助您从以往几种风格的优质葡萄酒中 随便挑选一款，而是向您推荐新的品种、葡 萄酒风格和不同的酿酒理念，”Cho说道。 然而，Artisans of Barossa并没有躺在 功绩簿上裹足不前，而是正在计划于2020 年初建立一个新的美食美酒中心。该中心将 包括一间品酒室及一间餐厅，并将提供大量 当地手工制作的葡萄酒和美食供顾客品尝 和购买。让我们一同持续关注。 芭萝莎人有着与生俱来的高瞻远瞩的视 野及远见，下一代芭萝莎人也注定将这里重 新打造，使其不仅仅是葡萄酒爱好者的天 堂。无论是杜松子酒，还是丰盛的秋季大餐， 芭萝莎绝对值得一游。 83

上海苏宁宝丽嘉酒店 As you’d expect with an iconic Sin City brand, the newly opened Bellagio Shanghai boasts plenty of Las Vegas flair – from its palatial exterior to the fluffy faux-fur throws on beds. But the real show is in the spa: here, instead of claustrophobic cupboard-like treatment rooms, your massage suite comes with theatrical Huangpu river views, gazing across to neon-laced Pudong. Meanwhile the gym, sauna, steam room and pool stretch over nearly 2,000 metres of open-plan space – breaststroke in the latter while staring out at the iconic, incandescent Oriental Pearl Tower. 正如您对来自“罪恶之城”品牌酒店的期待，新开业的上海 苏宁宝丽嘉酒店从富丽堂皇的外观到床上蓬松的人造毛皮 床罩，无不流露出浓郁的拉斯维加斯风情。但是，真正的亮 点却位于水疗中心——在这里，按摩套房不再是幽闭恐怖的 橱柜式理疗室，反而可以欣赏黄浦江的壮丽景观，眺望浦东 辉煌的灯火霓虹。与此同时，在近2,000米的开放式空间中， 健身房、桑拿浴室、蒸汽浴室和游泳池不一而足，可以一边 游泳，一边欣赏东方明珠广播电视塔在夜空中的迷人身姿。 > dytmgm.com

广州香岚王子明时酒店 Carved by the snaking waterways of the Pearl River, burgeoning port city Guangzhou is known for its envelope-pushing architecture – from Zaha Hadid’s geometric “double pebble” opera house to the elegant hourglass of the Canton Tower. But from this year, there will be another eye-catching build decorating the horizon: the swish Prince Akatoki hotel, the first Chinese outpost of a new five-star concept by Japan’s Prince Hotels group. From a distance, the riverside hotel on Bio-Island glimmers like a wavy, step-laddered silvery monolith, a rooftop pool – with serious city views – crowning its apex.

北京璞瑄酒店 Thanks to last year’s lavish opening by Mandarin Oriental, shopping hub Wangfujing has swiftly become one of Beijing’s most stylish spots to stay. And it’s about to get more action – in the form of The PuXuan. Throwing open its doors in 2019, from the outside it’s a charcoal-hued black monolith. The interior is equally broody with dark, polished floors, dim lighting and black geometric detailing. The rooms – in contrast to the public spaces, dressed in airy white tones with big windows – and the Hutong-inspired Cantonese restaurant have us intrigued. But what really gets us excited is the PuXuan Club – a reinvented, stylish executive floor that’s more like your own personal townhouse, with sexy lounges, outdoor spaces, 24-hour dining and a library complete with toasty roaring fire. 由于去年文华东方酒店的盛大开业，王府井购物中心已迅 速成为北京最时尚的住宿之地，而璞瑄酒店的出现更是 锦上添花。北京璞瑄酒店于1月份正式营业，从外面看像 是一块炭黑色的黑色巨石。内部也同样非常宽敞，采用深 色抛光地板，昏暗的灯光和黑色几何设计。酒店房间则与 公共空间形成对比，以轻盈的白色和大窗户为特色，而其 胡同风格的粤餐厅更让我们颇感兴趣。但真正令我们兴 奋的要属璞瑄汇——有别于传统意义上的行政酒廊，璞 瑄汇更像是居家舒适的私人市内宅邸，拥有奢华的休息 区、室外空间、24小时餐饮服务和温暖舒适的图书馆。 thepuxuan.com; price TBC 91

mid the occasionally ear-splitting renditions of Taylor Swift, Elvis Presley and Grease classics in the world of karaoke, there are often a few unheralded gems. Head to karaoke bars in China, for instance, and you may hear an enthusiastic wannabe singer mimicking a classic of a different nature: “Kangding Love Song”. Based on the old folk song “Pao Ma Liu Liu De Shan Shang” (which translates to “On the Running Horse Mountain”), it was reworked and released under a new title. Not only did it gain nationwide popularity, but its fame even reached an American mainstream TV series. In Marvel’s Daredevil, it was sung by a blind man as a taxi cab fight scene ensued, thus cementing its place as a legend of the Chinese karaoke scene. Not content with breaking America, the song has even been acknowledged by the safeguarders of all things special, UNESCO, with the original recognised as one of the world’s top 10 folk songs. It’s fitting, because both Kangding and Paoma Mountain (aka Running Horse Mountain) are truly worthy of having their praises sung – ideally in tune. The town of Kangding is a place many have visited en route to exploring the west, but every traveller should spend at least a day or two to enjoy everything it has to offer. >

了 泰 勒·斯 威 夫特、猫王和 G re a s e乐队 等的经典传唱 歌曲，经常会有一些无人知 晓的“宝藏”令人耳目一新。 例如，前往中国的卡拉OK 厅，您可能会听到梦想成为 歌星的人热情洋溢、维纱维 肖地演唱着各种版本的《康 定情歌》。 《跑马溜溜的山上》这首 古老的民歌经过重新演绎， 以全新歌名再次发行，不仅 在全国范围内大受欢迎，声 名更是直达彼岸的美国。 漫威的《夜魔侠》系列， 在一场出租车打斗的场景中， 有一位盲人哼唱的就是这 首歌，从而巩固了《康定情 歌》作为中国卡拉OK主打 歌曲的地位。这首歌不仅受 到美国人的欢迎，甚至还得 到了联合国教科文组织特 色保护者的认可，被认为是 世界十大民歌之一。
康定风光 康定和跑马山都非常值得 赞美一番，歌曲当然是一个 理想的形式。首先，康定是 许多人前往西部旅游的途经 之地，但无论如何，都至少 应该在此停留一两天的时间 来享受它所提供的一切。 康定位于四川省会成都 市西南几百公里处，居住着 大约10万人，所以一开始就 可以知道这里一定有一些不 错的川菜馆。 康定坐落于藏汉交汇之 处，一条“茶马古道”从中 经过，这里因此成为著名的 茶叶及羊毛的主要交易地 点——来自两边的商贩在此 交换由马作为运输工具从邻 近山区运来的货物，包括砖 茶。交易仍然很重要，但却 是以交易会的形式，但真正 吸引游客不是讨价还价的交 易，而是这里令人惊叹的风 景、空灵平静的氛围和别具 特色的山地活动。 > 93

Home to around 100,000 people, Kangding is located a couple of hundred kilometres south-west of Chengdu, the capital of Sichuan province, so right from the start you know it has some excellent restaurants serving that deliciously fiery Sichuan cuisine. Kangding sits on what was once the border of mainland China. It ran through the “Tea Road”, which made it a major trading stop for both the famous leaves and also wool. Traders from both sides would swap their goods, and the “bricks” of tea would arrive on horseback via the neighbouring mountains.
RIVER DEEP, MOUNTAIN HIGH While trade is still important in Kangding, what really brings the visitors requires no haggling at all: it’s the stunning scenery, the sense of calm and the completely unique mountain-based activities. Based in a steep river valley with the fearsome Zheduo river rushing through – and providing a natural soundtrack in doing so – Kangding is the kind of peaceful town where churches, monasteries and mosques can share the same postcode. Ngachu Monastery, one of four monasteries in town, dates >
山高水长 康定位于陡峭的河谷之上， 湍急的折多河由此奔腾而过， 为康定带来了大自然的声音。 康定是一个宁静的小镇，教 堂、寺院、清真寺在此和睦 共 处。安觉寺是 镇上的四 座寺院之一，其历史可以追 溯至17世纪。如果时间很短， 也许您应该去参观一下，但 最好能够有充足的时间去 好好探索一番，这样才能真 正地了解康定。 若俯瞰康定，便会发现 这座小城被壮美的群山所 环绕。您需要乘车才能来到 此处，路途中将经历各种百 转千回，虽然期间偶尔会遇 到令人胆战心惊的瞬间，不 过好在一路上始终风景如 画 。然而，一旦 到 达 海 拔 5,500米的跑马山之巅，这 里便将成为主宰。无论身在
城中何处，都可以看到跑马 山的身影，任何方向都没有 遮挡。当这首古老民歌改 名为《康定情歌》时，跑马 山的风头被康定抢去，但它 并没有感到痛苦，因为跑马 山仍然是这座小城和当地 社区的中心，在每位游客离 开几个月后仍然会是他们的 谈资。 跑马山是当地人和游客 们在节庆期间都很喜欢去 的热门胜地，可以徒步或乘 坐缆车前往。如果沿着东侧 徒步而上，您可以看到五色 海——一个海拔4,100米的 纯净冰川湖，因为阳光的照 射，不同时间湖面会呈现不 同的颜色。湖被陡峭的悬崖 和被游客描述为“万千奔腾 咆哮”的瀑布所环绕，这样 的第一站着实令人惊叹，并 且符合任何人的标准。 >
STAY To reach many of the scenic spots around Kangding you’ll have to stay in the city. Considering it’s a county-level city, you’ll struggle to find somewhere opulent to stay. While you may be missing all your mod-cons, you’ll be rewarded with stunning day trips and the smiles of the friendly locals.

“PAOMA MOUNTAIN MIGHT HAVE HAD ITS THUNDER STOLEN WHEN ITS FOLK SONG WAS RENAMED, BUT IT’S NOT BITTER – IT’S STILL THE HUB OF THE TOWN AND COMMUNITY” back to the 1600s and is worth a visit even if your stay is short – though, ideally, you’d give yourself plenty of time to explore. Overlooking the town, meanwhile, is a wondrous mountainous landscape. Getting there requires a drive that twists, turns and occasionally terrifies, but it’s nothing if not picturesque. However, once you’ve made it, Paoma Mountain, at 5,500 metres, dominates. It’s visible wherever you are in town and unavoidable in every way. It might have had its thunder stolen by the town when its folk song was renamed, but it’s not bitter – it’s still the hub of the town and the community, and it’s also what every visitor will still be talking about months after they leave. You can hike or take a cable car while you’re there. If you hike from the east, you can see the Five-Colour Sea, a glacial lake some 4,100 metres above sea level, gin-clear and showcasing all the lights and reflections the sun can muster as it alters its rays throughout the day. Surrounded by sheer cliffs and with a waterfall described by one visitor as “like thousands of pearls,” it’s a stunning first stop by anyone’s standards. > 96
如果 选 择 从南侧开始， 您 便会 遇 到吉 祥寺，很 有 特色的玉石台阶一直延伸 到耸 立于碧空、经常云雾 缭 绕 的宝塔。这 座寺庙周 围布满了各种各样的动植 物，可谓是 最 具神圣氛围 的一处壮观景点——跑马 山在许多人心中是一座神 圣的山峰，单是如此，就非 常值得您徒步一番。
尽情狂欢 当 然了，考虑 到 这 座 山 的 名字，您会因为欣 赏 不 到 某种马上活动而感到失 望 —— 要 知 道，这可是 其 名气 的由来 啊。追 溯 到清 朝 时期，赛 马一直 是山区 的“ 标 配 活 动 ”，在 山 顶 平坦 的草 地 上举 行，前五 名会获 得 奖品，其中当然
少不了茶叶。20世纪8 0年 代，中国政府实施“退牧还 草”的政策，把这里恢复为 原 始草 地，以便 举办更多 的活动，包括音乐、舞蹈和 戏剧。四月，这里举办了最 著名的“转山会”，以纪念 佛 祖释 迦牟尼的诞 辰。在 这 天，当地 人 穿 着各式 服 装 参加各种活 动，从随 意 的转山（转山会名字的由 来）到马背骑射，以及戏剧、 野 餐、民歌和其他一切您 可以在中国传 统节日上 见 到的活 动。这是 一 个与众 不同的舞台，在青山密林环 绕 之中，让 人不知 道 是 欣 赏舞台上的精彩表演，还 是欣赏这壮观美丽的景色。 毫无疑问，跑马山肯定 是最能给您带来灵感和感 悟的山峰之一。

On another slope (the south), you’ll find Jixiang Temple, set atop jade stone steps and complete with a pagoda that reaches for the sky and often finds itself shrouded in cloud. Surrounded by flora and fauna, the temple is a spectacular site in the most spiritual of settings – Paoma Mountain is considered a holy mountain by many – and it’s worth the hike alone.
RUN WILD Of course, given the mountain’s name, you’d be disappointed to not find some kind of equine activity, as this is what it’s truly famous for. Dating back to the Qing dynasty, horse racing has always been a regular fixture of the mountain, taking place on the flat grassland at the top. The prizes, naturally, include tea for the top five horsemen. In the 1980s, the government cultivated the grassland to make it a pristine lawn, enabling it to host even more events including music, dance and theatre. In April, it hosts its most famed event, the Mountain Strolling Fair, which celebrates the birth of Buddhist master Sakyamuni. Locals dress in costume to partake in everything from a bit of casual mountain strolling (hence the name) to shooting arrows from horseback. There’s also opera, picnics, folk singing and everything else you’d expect from a traditional Chinese festival. It’s a stage like no other, to be sure. Surrounded by verdant forest, and with the neighbouring mountains on hand as regular attendees, your only problem is focusing on what’s happening on stage and not simply admiring the breathtaking set. 99

Driving force
Stealth meets style and speed with Aston Martin’s DB11 AMR, writes Noelle Faulkner.
SPECS There really is something special about an Aston Martin. It possesses an aura of sophistication that makes for whiplash-inducing double-takes; and yet it also flies under the radar compared to other marques of the same price. The DB11 AMR, in particular, is a sexy, stealthy and stunning beast of a grand tourer. On arrival, it announces itself with a roar, its long and lean lines, beautiful backside, sculpted wheel arches and clamshell front instantly recognisable as the timelessly stylish shape the world has come to lust over. The DB11 AMR heralds a new chapter in the make’s story, which was first launched in 2016. AMR stands for Aston Martin Racing, the British icon’s endurance racing program from which this new GT was inspired and to which the optional lime green brake callipers and AMR interior detailing on our test model nod. The AMR is replacing the outgoing V12-engine DB11, with more power, dynamics, noise and connectivity, powered by the easy-to-use Mercedes-Benz-sourced infotainment system, which includes a high-res 360-degree camera and automatic parking function, making it arguably the most driver-centric model yet. The 5.2L V12 twin-turbo engine has been upped with an extra 23kW (which is 95kW more than its little V8 sister), and the arrival of more carbon fibre detailing and a chic sports exhaust give the AMR a lascivious edge, without being vulgar. On top of that, the slightly tweaked steering and dampers have made for some razor-sharp steering and brilliant power-toweight balance. And with torque aplenty, not only is this an absolute dream when cruising at 80km/h on a highway (the ride is almost as silky as its shape), but it’s also a hoot around twisty roads and sings if you get a
104
chance to push it even further. Be warned, however: that 100km/h to 200km/h jump is almost too effortless... The DB11 AMR gets even better with separate dials for the three drive modes and three suspension modes (GT, Sport and Sport+), which mean you can personalise the ride and responsiveness to your own liking. So often, sports coupes mean sacrificing space and function, particularly as a daily driver. However, the Brits have done a superb job when it comes to the design, materials and space of the DB11. For starters, you can actually fit a suitcase in the boot, and the cabin itself is bright with incredible vision, fine stitching, supremely plush leathers and optional carbon fibre detailing that oozes opulence. If anything, this is a reminder that Aston Martin is a marque that refuses to sacrifice quality, appealing to even the most discerning luxury customer.
Engine: 5.2L, V12 twin-turbo petrol Max power: 470kW @ 6500rpm Max torque: 700Nm @ 1500-5000rpm Transmission: Eightspeed automatic, RWD Weight: 1,870kg 0-100: 3.7 seconds Fuel economy: 11.4L/100km Seats: 4 Price: $428,000* (as tested: $481,280) * Plus on-road costs

火力全开 低调奢华的极速性能猛兽：阿斯顿·马丁（ASTON MARTIN）DB11 AMR。
阿斯顿·马丁确有其独领风骚之处。与同等 价位的其他品牌车款相比，阿斯顿·马丁显 露出一种练达成熟的气场，足以吸引路人猛 然回首寻找它飞驰而过的低调身影。阿斯 顿·马丁旗下的DB11 AMR是一款性感、神 秘、惊艳四座的豪华跑车。轰鸣而来的声浪、 细长流畅的线条、美艳饱满的尾部、如刀刻 般的轮拱以及蛤壳式的前验，无一不体现出 阿斯顿·马丁经久不衰、让全世界为之倾倒 的家族式设计。 DB11 AMR标志着阿斯顿·马丁于2016 年首次推出的该系列车型的一个全新里程 碑。AMR（ASTON MARTIN RACING）代 表着阿斯顿·马丁的耐力锦标赛车队，也就 是我们所试驾的这款搭配了橙绿色制动卡 钳（选配）以及AMR内饰的GT跑车的设计 灵感来源。 作为即将退市的、配备V12引擎的DB11 的改款车型，DB11 AMR被阿斯顿·马丁赋 予了更强的动力、更好的爆发力、更优的噪 音控制以及易于使用的“梅赛德斯-奔驰” 信息娱乐系统所带来的卓越连接性。该套系 统包含了高清360度全景摄像头以及自动驻 车功能，令其成为了一款可以说是最以驾驶 员为中心的车型。 5.2升V12双涡轮增压发动机增加了额 外23千瓦的功率（比它的V8姊妹引擎高出
95千瓦），更多的碳纤维内饰以及时髦的 SPORT模式排气系统为AMR赋予了一种媚 而不俗的气质。最重要的是，精心调校的转 向系统和减震器带来了精准的转向表现以 及出色的动力-重量平衡。劲道十足的扭矩 输出不仅让您可以在高速公路上以80公里/ 时的速度巡航时游刃有余（驾驶体验几乎 和它的外形一样如丝般顺滑），并且如果您 有机会将油门深踩下去的话，这头猛兽将会 爆发出阵阵低吼，在蜿蜒曲折的公路上充分 施展出它的潜力。请注意，从100公里/时加 速到200公里/时几乎就是一瞬间的事情...... DB11 AMR提供了三种驾驶模式以及三 种悬挂模式（GT、SPORT和SPORT+），这意 味着您完全可以根据自己的喜好来设定驾 驶模式和悬挂响应。 跑车往往意味着需要牺牲空间和功能性， 尤其不适用于日常出行。但是，在DB11的设 计、选材和空间方面，英国人可谓是拿出了 压轴之作。对于初入此道者而言，它的后备 厢内完全可以放得下一个行李箱，并且车厢 内亦十分明亮，提供了良好的视野。细密的 缝线、奢华的真皮座椅以及可以选配的碳纤 维内饰无一不显露出雍容华贵的气质。需要 提醒您的是，阿斯顿·马丁可谓是一个拒绝 牺牲品质的品牌，哪怕是最为挑剔的奢侈品 消费者都能被它所折服。

Autumn’s finest drops We farewell summer and welcome winter with a collection of wines that will have you covered throughout the trans-seasonal weather. 当我们挥手告别炎炎夏日，即将迎来寒冷冬季之时，不妨选择各种葡萄 美酒来陪我们度过这样一个过渡性的季节。
Autumn Down Under is hard to predict, a mix of the fleeting days of summer and a preview of the cooler days to come. However, no matter what the weather has lined up, Handpicked Wines has you covered for the transitional season. For the warmer, sun-kissed autumn days, Handpicked Wines’ limitededition Handpicked Wines x Romance Was Born Yarra Valley Rosé is the perfect drop. The clear, light-salmonpink coloured wine’s nose has vibrant red fruit and spice aromas and the 106
palate is packed with juicy fruit flavours and a savoury complexity. While usually reserved for summer, we make the case that rosé is also the perfect trans-seasonal wine. For the days when it’s not quite warm enough for a summer wine but not quite cold enough for a red, we suggest going for a full-bodied white like the Handpicked Wines 2015 Chardonnay Single Vineyard Highbow Hill, Yarra Valley. Handpicked and whole bunch pressed, this chardonnay delivers vibrant citrus

WINE NOTES
“No matter what the weather has lined up, Handpicked Wines has you covered for the transitional season” and stone fruit flavours and has the added complexity of barrel fermentation and maturation. It was fermented in French oak barriques, about one-third new, and was aged for 10 months in the same barrels. For the cooler days, you can’t go past Handpicked Wines 2017 Pinot Noir Collection Mornington Peninsula. Victoria’s Mornington Peninsula is famous for its pinot noirs – it’s now devoted solely to pinot noir and chardonnay – and this bottle is a fine example from a great vintage: deep colour, spicy berry aromas, a silky smooth palate and fine tannin to finish. When the nights start getting too cool to venture out, Handpicked Wines 2017 Pinot Noir will match perfectly with roasted Peking duck or a charcuterie selection by the fire. Whatever autumn surprises are thrown your way, you can be sure Handpicked Wines will remain a constant companion throughout.
澳大利亚的秋季总是令人琢磨不透，让人在叹息夏日已 逝之时，又不得不为即将来临的寒冬做好准备。但无论 天气如何，首彩葡萄酒都是您在这样一个过渡性季节 的绝佳伴侣。在天气温暖、阳光明媚的秋日，一瓶首彩 与ROMANCE WAS BORN合作的限量版亚拉山谷桃 红葡萄酒绝对是您的不二之选。这款桃红葡萄酒呈清 澈的浅橙红色，有着充满活力的红色水果和香料的香气， 有着多汁水果的口感，质地丰富，辛辣而复杂。虽然桃 红葡萄酒通常适合夏季饮用，但我们认为在秋季这样的 过渡性季节，桃红葡萄酒也可以与其完美匹配。而在不 冷不热的日子，我们建议选择一款酒体丰厚的白葡萄 酒，如首彩2015年份亚拉山谷HIGHBOW HILL单一葡 萄园霞多丽。这款霞多丽所使用的葡萄经过精心挑选 后整串压榨，具有充满活力的柑橘和核果口味，经橡木 桶发酵成熟后，极具复杂风味。这款葡萄酒在法国橡木 桶中发酵，其中约三分之一为新酒，然后在相同的酒桶 中陈酿10个月的时间。而在凉爽的时节里，不妨来一瓶 首彩2017年份莫宁顿半岛珍藏黑比诺。维多利亚州的 莫宁顿半岛以其黑比诺葡萄酒而闻名，现在绝大多数 以黑比诺和霞多丽为主。这款葡萄酒是一个很好的代 表——色泽深沉，有着辛辣的浆果香气，口感如丝顺滑， 单宁细腻，收口精致。当天气变冷，不适合夜间外出时， 首彩2017年份黑比诺搭配北京烤鸭或其它烤肉便再完 美不过了。因此，无论秋季有什么惊喜在等待着您，首 彩葡萄酒都将是您永恒的最佳选择。

After several years in London, working with the formidable Giorgio Armani and later Nicole Farhi luxury houses, my experiences led me to return home to establish the concept of Parlour X in 2001. I saw it as an opportunity to curate a new kind of multi-brand boutique experience, one that represented interesting international designers and emerging brands as works of art, in a gallery-style aesthetic. At the time in Sydney, international designers and emerging talent were only accessible if you were travelling overseas. After 14 years on Glenmore Road, Paddington, I made the landmark move to St Johns Church in 2015, on Oxford Street in Paddington.
H I G H E R L I F E // PA R L O U R X
What were your first impressions of St Johns Church? I was familiar with St Johns Church being the oldest in the area, however it hadn’t been in use for over 30 years. On the pursuit of finding a truly magnificent and inspirational space, the opportunity presented itself with divine timing. At first, there was a level of uncertainty and risk, but as I began to visualise the space and possibilities, I fast realised how extraordinary the space was and is. Can you tell us a bit about the history of the building? St Johns Church is a piece of Paddington’s history. Almost 175 years old – it was built in 1845 – it’s one of the oldest and grandest churches built by Australia’s earliest settlers and convicts. Throughout the design process, we needed to respect and retain the legacy of the past. We preserved the original structure and exposed beam ceiling of the church with its original sandstone walls. It has stained-glass windows that feature the Ten Commandments and emblems of Australian native flora and fauna and heritage inscriptions. And there are more beautiful, unique features that are a feast for the eyes. >
您是如何开始在时尚界的职业生涯的？ 在悉尼完成美术学习后，我一直想成为一名策 展人。而在伦敦工作的几年中，与令人钦佩的 Giorgio Armani和Nicole Farhi等奢侈品牌 的合作经历促使我在回到家乡后于2 0 01年建 立了Parlour X。我把这看作是一种展示新型多 品牌精品体验的机会，以一种画廊风格的美学， 将国际设计师和新兴品牌的作品以艺术品的 形式呈现在公众面前。那时的悉尼，只有在海 外旅行时才有机会遇到国际知名和刚刚崭露头 角的设计师。在帕丁顿（Paddington）格伦莫 尔路（Glenmore Road）经营了14年之后，我 于2015年将店面迁至帕丁顿牛津街（Oxford Street）的圣约翰教堂（St Johns Church）， 这一搬迁具有里程碑意义。

您对圣约翰教堂的第一印象是什么？ 我对圣约翰教堂很熟悉，它是该地区最古老的 教堂，但已经荒废了30多年。在寻求真正宏伟 和鼓舞人心的空间的过程中，绝佳的机会不期 而遇。虽然最初存在一定程度的不确定性和风 险，但随着空间设计的进展，我很快意识到这 里是多么与众不同。 您能向我们讲述一下这座建筑的历史吗？ 圣约 翰 教 堂是帕丁顿历史的一 部分，有着 逾 175年的历史，是1845年澳大利亚最早的定居 者和囚犯建造的最古老、最宏伟的教堂之一。 在整个设计过程中，我们需要尊重并保留过去 的遗产。我们保留了教堂原有的结构、裸露的 天花板及以圣经十诫和澳大利亚本土动植物为 特色的原有砂岩墙和彩色玻璃窗。除此之外还 有一些铭文和更多美丽、独特的亮点，颇为赏 心悦目。 > 111
H I G H E R L I F E // PA R L O U R X
What inspired you to convert the space into a luxury retail store? As the luxury portfolio grew, I felt the growing demand of expanding into a physically larger space to accommodate more luxury collections and categories like eyewear, leather goods and footwear. I also wanted to develop the in-house team and optimise the increasing online business of parlourx.com by incorporating an in-house photographic studio and sizeable warehousing. The space was three times the size of our previous location. In terms of the aesthetic and design, luxury shoppers are drawn to unique experiences and love being in a beautiful environment. The heritage elements contrasted with our modern and progressive designer edit and finishes enlists Parlour X as one of the most unique boutique spaces in the world. In fact, Parlour X could very well be the only boutique fitted out in a church! Do you find the space inspires you? Yes, every day. The brick-and-mortar boutique is where creativity, fashion and cultural experiences unite, as we host many creative collaborations through our windows and constantly transform the space through events. Also, being located in Paddington is part of the allure – this area is extremely close to my heart and part of my own personal history.
是什么原因促使您将这座教堂改造成奢侈品零 售店？ 随着奢侈品牌越来越多，我越来越感觉到扩大 空间以容纳更多的奢侈品系列及类别的需要， 如眼镜、皮革制品和鞋类。我还想通过整合内 部摄影工作室和大规模仓库来开发内部团队并 优化parlourx.com以满足不断增长的线上业 务，现在的面积是之前店面的三倍。在审美和设 计方面，独特的体验和优美的环境能够吸引奢 侈品购买者。店面建筑的悠久历史以及我们现 代前卫的设计使得Parlour X成为世界上最独 特的精品店之一。事实上，Parlour X很可能是 唯一一家设立在教堂中的精品店！ 您觉得这里能激发您的灵感吗？ 是的，无时无刻。实体店是创意、时尚和文化体 验的结合点，因为我们在这里举办许多创意活 动，使其不断得以升华。此外，帕丁顿本身就很 具有吸引力——这里非常接近我的故乡，也对 我个人有着深远的影响。 作为时尚买家，您对购买经典的奢侈品有什么 建议？ 旅行、策划和凭直觉定购是我作为买家的全部 角色。重要的是要保持个人风格和审美，而不是 随波逐流。购买经典的奢侈品时，一定要考虑 112

As a fashion buyer, what are your top tips for those who want to purchase timeless items? Travelling, curating and editing with instinct is all part of my role as a buyer. It’s important you remain true to your personal style and aesthetic in place of jumping on trends. To invest in timeless styles, consider the fabric, quality and craftsmanship of a piece. This could be through structured and tailored shapes, bespoke fabric details that are unique to a brand and can’t be replicated, or signature design hallmarks from a historic house like Chloe, Emilio Pucci, Valentino or Balenciaga.

Apart from selling amazing pieces of clothing and accessories, how does Parlour X contribute to the Australian fashion industry?

I’m immensely proud that as the ultimate destination in Australia, Parlour X represents the most influential and coveted luxury brands in the world.

正值梵克雅宝标志性的Alhambra四叶幸运系列50周年之际， 我们采访了这家奢侈珠宝商的复古作品专家兼梵克雅宝亚太地区总裁 尼古拉斯·吕歇森格尔（Nicolas Luchsinger），对其创作灵感进行追根溯源。 As Van Cleef & Arpels celebrates 50 years of its iconic Alhambra design, we spoke to the luxury jeweller’s expert in vintage pieces, Nicolas Luchsinger, president of Van Cleef & Arpels, Asia Pacific, about when it all began…
V
an Cleef & Arpels is a brand steeped in history – mainly because it has a lot of it. It was founded in Paris in 1906 by Alfred Van Cleef and his uncle, Salomon Arpels. Fast forward 113 years and you can still find the luxury boutique at the location it first opened its doors, 22 Place Vendôme. Over a century, the luxury jeweller has created unique pieces for some of high society’s most recognised names, such as Wallis Simpson, the Duchess of Windsor; actress and singer Marlene Dietrich; and Grace Kelly, the Princess of Monaco, to name just a few. However, while Van Cleef & Arpels’ list of royal clients is impressive, what’s more impressive is one of its lasting design legacies: the Alhambra. >

“TO UNDERSTAND THE ALHAMBRA, YOU HAVE TO UNDERSTAND THE TIME IT WAS CREATED IN ... WE HAD TO MAKE JEWELLERY THAT WAS MUCH MORE WEARABLE, USING A MIX OF SEMIPRECIOUS STONES” 121
H I G H E R L I F E // A L H A M B R A
CHANGING TIMES
“To understand the Alhambra, you have to understand the time it was created in,” says Nicolas Luchsinger, President of Van Cleef & Arpels, Asia Pacific, who also happens to be a bit of an expert in vintage pieces. Luchsinger founded Van Cleef & Arpels Heritage Collection, which scours the world for historic pieces of the brand, buys them back, and displays them in its boutiques. Anyone interested in the brand’s history will be treated to a gallery-like display at Van Cleef & Arpels’ boutiques around the world. You may even be able to catch a glimpse of the historic Alhambra design. “The inspiration wasn’t specifically about jewellery, but to find something that was really wearable and versatile,” says Luchsinger of the Alhambra’s origin. “In 1968, there were riots in Paris, which caused a huge transformation and revolution on the financial side.” The riots, often referred to as May 68, saw 11 million workers strike and almost brought the economy of France to a complete halt. For two weeks, more than 22 per cent of France’s workforce was on strike. The riots went on to affect French society for decades afterwards. Today, May 68 is still considered a cultural, moral and social turning point in France. “Before 1968, an elegant lady had jewellery for lunch, for cocktails, for evenings, and so on,” explains Luchsinger on society’s change of perspective. “She was a great Van Cleef & Arpels client because she would change her jewellery two or three times a day. But that stopped. So, Van Cleef & Arpels needed to adapt itself once
“AFTER MAY 68, WE NEEDED TO ADAPT ... THE SPIRIT OF THE DAY WAS FLOWER POWER”
时光变迁 梵克雅宝亚太地区总裁尼古拉斯·吕歇森 格尔表示： “想要了解Alhambra四叶幸 运系列，您必须了解它的创立时间。”而 他也恰好是复古作品的专家。吕歇森格尔 创立了梵克雅宝的传承系列，在世界各地 搜寻该品牌以往的作品，并将其收回，在 精品店中进行展示。任何对该品牌历史感 兴趣的人都可以在世界 各地的梵克雅宝
精品店中看到像在画廊中一样展示出的各 种作品。您甚至还有机会一睹历史悠久的 Alhambra四叶幸运系列。 “该系列的设计灵感并非专门针对珠宝， 而是为了找寻真正适合在多种场合佩戴的 设计，”吕歇森格尔在谈到Alhambra四 叶幸运系列的起源说道。 “1968年，巴黎 发生了骚乱，导致了金融领域的巨大变革 和革命。” 这次骚乱通常被称为“五月风暴”，其 中有1,100万工人罢工，几乎使法国经济完 全停摆。在两周的时间里，超过22％的法 国劳动力处于罢工状态。此次骚乱对法国 社会的影响持续了长达几十年的时间。直 至今日，五月风暴仍被视为法国文化、道 德标准和社会的转折点。 “在1968年之前，一位优雅的女士在参 加午餐会、鸡尾酒会、晚会等都会佩戴不 同的珠宝首饰，”吕歇森格尔在解释这场 社会变革时表示。 “她是梵克雅宝的忠实 客户，每天要佩戴两到三种不同的珠宝。 但这一切戛然而止。因此，梵克雅宝需要 再次适应这种形式。我们开始使用半宝石 制作更适合佩戴的珠宝，而当时想到的就 是花之力量。”
自然力量 Alhambra四叶幸运系列的图案灵感源自 四叶草。四叶草被普遍认为会给人带来好 运，而自该系列创立以来，梵克雅宝一直 好运连连。Alhambra四叶幸运系列的魅 力在于其可在多种场合佩戴，日间佩戴的 珠宝也可以在晚间佩戴。您可以将长长的 122

P OW E R O F NAT U R E
The Alhambra motif itself was inspired by the four-leaf clover, a universal symbol for luck, and it has continued to bring good fortune to the Maison since its creation. The beauty of the Alhambra lies in its wearability – day jewellery that can transcend into night. You can wrap the longer Alhambra necklace around your neck multiple times to create a choker style necklace, or casually drape it over your neck to wear loosely. “It is discrete and elegant,” Luchsinger says. “It is something you can easily wear when you are young or in your late eighties. It is transgenerational. While it is classic, it is still edgy because of the colours.” The mix of colourful semi-precious stones from which the Alhambra designs is created – like, onyx, letterwood, malachite, carnelian and chalcedony – add a playful element to pieces. And for those who would like
a more glitzy version of the Alhambra, it also comes in diamonds.
那么，自Alhambra四叶幸运系列推出以 来，最近50年内发生了哪些变化？ “我们今天推出的系列总是受到过去的 启发，”吕歇森格尔解释。 “我们对于自己 的历史 遗 产心 怀 感 激，制 作工艺一直保 持 不变。现在工匠们使用的工具 与梵克 雅宝创立时使用的工具完全相同，对 细 节的关注也一直没有改变，一切都没有改 变。Alhambra四叶幸运系列的变化更像 是我们客户个性变化的一个象征。所使用 的材料正是为了适应我们的客户而作出的 改变 ，如半宝石。” 其余的则基本上没有改变。如果有什么 能够成为永恒的象征，那必是Alhambra 四叶幸运系列无疑。
PA ST M E E T S P R E S E N T
So what’s changed in the last 50 years since Alhambra was launched? “The collections we launch today are always inspired by the past,” Luchsinger says. “We are thankful for our roots. The craftsmanship remains the same. The tools the artisans are using are exactly the same tools they had when Van Cleef & Arpels was created. The attention to detail remains the same. There is no change. The Alhambra is more a symbol of a change in our client’s personality. The materials used, such as a semi-precious stone, is what changes to suit our customers.” Remaining, basically, unchanged – if there ever were a symbol of for timelessness, the Alhambra motif would be it.

s there any better way to spend Chinese New Year than with your family? We think not, and it seems loads of people agree. Over 80 million Chinese locals travel to their home town from capital cities across the country to spend the national holiday with their nearest and dearest. Burberry has recognised the significance of family and the holiday in its Chinese New Year campaign, which celebrates family traditions and togetherness during the festive season. Shot and directed by photographer Ethan James Green, the campaign was inspired by the classic family portrait – where all generations are represented – but reimagined in an informal urban environment. The shoot stars Chinese actresses and Burberry brand ambassadors Zhao Wei and Zhou Dongyu, the latter of whom also recognises the significance of family during the holiday period. “For me, being able to go home once a year to spend quality time with my family is something I value above all else,” Zhou says. “I wouldn’t trade it for anything.” The campaign features pieces including archive-print scarves, the classic trench coat and tailored suiting, which contrast with urban staples like hoodies, T-shirts and joggers.
