[2025 Jinghong Stay] Travel Guide for Viraag Resort Xishuangbanna (Updated Jan)

It hasn't officially opened yet, but I happened to stay there. It's quiet amidst the hustle and bustle, naturally secluded, and located just outside the Gaozhuang Starlight Night Market. The exterior has a sense of understated luxury, reminiscent of walking in Gangnam, Seoul. It offers great privacy with a gated entrance that prevents any disturbances. Although it's newly renovated, there's no pungent smell in the rooms. Instead, there's the fragrance of solid wood, which is very calming. Shierlan by day and Shierlan by night have two different faces. The riverside view is stunning, with a serene and comfortable atmosphere that discourages idle visitors. However, I prefer the time when night falls. The infinity pool reflects the Lancang River Bridge, and being immersed in such an atmosphere makes you want to do nothing but enjoy the breeze and daydream, quietly waiting for time to pass. It's a kind of enjoyment...

Originally planned to stay in Chiang Mai for about a week But due to time constraints, the trip was changed to Xishuangbanna Carefully selected many resort hotels Booked [Shierlan] 🏠 by the Lancang River Integrating intangible cultural heritage skills and local culture into every corner of the hotel During the three days and two nights here, in addition to staying in the scenery I also deeply experienced the local culture and the relaxed feeling of the secret place . The black and gray texture style is integrated with tropical green plants The deep artistic atmosphere is not without vitality In addition, some deep red tones are particularly eye-catching You can enjoy a quiet and private river view in the room In the evening 🏊🏻 by the 42-meter infinity pool Immerse yourself in a blue hour moment .

🏺 I was attracted by the quiet and calm atmosphere here early in the morning The old Dai-style wooden building on the banks of the Lancang River Combined with custom-made Southeast Asian solid wood furniture The old Nanyang-style building is full of texture The super long infinity pool is so vacation-like I can do nothing in such a place Sit idly by the river and watch the waves blown by the wind Wait for a blue hour after sunset As the meaning of "VIRAAG" in the name "Shierlan": ——"Transcend worldly troubles" Withdraw from busyness, retreat from hustle and bustle Find a long-lost sense of relaxation - 🏷️

- In Banna, away from the hustle and bustle of the city, I stayed in the hidden courtyard of "Shierlan" next to the Beiye Wharf and enjoyed a two-day peaceful holiday. · The warm and rich architecture has a rough, primitive sense of power. The public area is both a living space and an art gallery, with many Southeast Asian classical furniture collections and original works by local artists. · In the evening, I listened to music by the pool and enjoyed the luxurious and mysterious blues of the Lancang River, which was enough to restore peace and tranquility to my heart. · A holiday experience that combines the rainforest, Dai architecture, and Nanyang culture may be the right way to open Xishuangbanna.

Dai pottery and brocade, stay in an artistic space full of Xishuangbanna intangible cultural heritage elements. When the Lancang River Bridge lights up, the infinity pool by the river also lights up. At the Shierlan Collection Hotel, you can see the day and night of Banna every day. Geometric sense, mortise and tenon structure, vitality flows in the cultural charm. In a lively city, there are also quiet places.
