Bodu Resort
Bodu Resort is a resort hotel located in Xishuangbanna, China. The hotel stands on a cliff forty meters above the ground and faces a rubber forest and a tropical rain forest. A suspended glass box extends from the building toward the surrounding trees and opens the interior to the landscape. Teak and old elm form the main structure. Brick, stone and woven bamboo, common in local villages, echo the regional culture. Local materials were selected to reflect local color and texture. The project covers 4000 square meters.
