The Most European-Style Check-in Spot Around Beijing, a Must-Visit for Photography Lovers

Italo Calvino said that cities are dreams, also hope and awe; every city has its unique charm. Life is a poem, sentiment is the rhyme, and the people in the city are poets with romantic feelings, searching for ordinary yet extraordinary small happiness in the daily grind of life.

(I) By the Yongding River, the Essence of a Great Lake. Directly south of Tiananmen, in the core of the Beijing-Tianjin-Hebei triangle, Gu'an, separated from Beijing by only a river, is the core area of the airport economy development zone around Daxing New Airport. On the clear lake of 130,000 square meters in southern Beijing's Gu'an, the sun pours all its beauty here—the refreshing scenery where the lake and sky merge, the livable and leisure lakeside trails, the French-style light luxury palace-like architecture complex... Before even entering, one is amazed by its appearance. The transparency and beauty accumulated by time seem to be fully displayed here. This is Peacock City Grand Lake.

In the years of meticulous craftsmanship, the buildings are fully endowed with vivid life. Peacock City Grand Lake uses architecture as a pen to compose a poem of beauty and love for Gu'an. The landscape planning of 'one lake, one island, one ring, one street, and nine themed activity areas' precipitates a community of great beauty without words. The essence of French architecture and light luxury life scenes are organically integrated and perfectly displayed here.

Beyond architecture, Peacock City Grand Lake focuses more on life experience. Modeled after the Washington Burke Lake Park Resort and inspired by American lake living, Peacock City Grand Lake is not just a simple man-made lake. With a lake surface of over 90,000 square meters, a pure and pollution-free lake living environment and quality control, and a low-density livable French slow life, it is not only a model of lake living in a garden city but also a lakeside living field that advocates 'freedom, equality, and openness'.

(II) Time Never Stays, Listen to the Melodious Echoes of Life. Walking to the lakeside, vivid scenes appear before your eyes. For city dwellers surrounded by steel and concrete, the lakeside beauty that might require crossing the city to see can be encountered here just by taking a stroll near home, meeting a shimmering lake. The giant fan-shaped water landscape, modeled after the Place de la Bourse Water Mirror in Bordeaux, France, embodies the soul of French gardens, creating a romantic living atmosphere and a natural, soothing homecoming realm, guiding every visitor to explore the community world and encounter more beautiful French styles.

On the Maple Forest Island in the center of the lake, a gentle breeze blows, insects chirp frequently, and various birds stop to perch and play in the water. The two-kilometer lakeside rubber track offers water, trees, and various artistic landscape installations. It is worth mentioning that all trees in Peacock City Grand Lake are mature species of a certain age, and the large sunny lawns are carefully selected from weed-free, pest-free, and resilient cool-season grasses, with scattered flowers and shrubs of different blooming seasons in between, ensuring that the vitality of plants can be enjoyed all year round.

Bordering the river to the north and overlooking the lake to the south, as a cover work on Gu'an's main axis, Peacock City Grand Lake adapts to local conditions, allowing the cold spirit of French architecture to melt into the space art of modern urban life. Before entering, it is already stunning—the elegant ceremonial order of French life is displayed along the way, every walk from the lakeside roundabout is a respectful experience, and the entire lake area's architectural complex presents a simple yet not simplistic artistic expression, offering a homecoming feeling that reaches the heart in tranquility.

Here, whether you are strolling leisurely alone to enjoy the scenery and feel the vibrant greenery coming at you, or sipping tea and admiring flowers with your loved one, or inviting a few friends to chat about life, poetic dwelling is no longer a distant dream here. Life is long, so it is better to live in the moment, live in this dynamic Peacock City Grand Lake that balances life functions and leisurely interests, carrying imagination and poetry.

(III) Craftsmanship and Sentiment: The Dialogue Between the Great Lake and Gu'an. If nature is compared to a backdrop, then Peacock City Grand Lake is undoubtedly a magnificent stage, where different encounters happen every day, allowing every heart that loves life, understands life, and knows how to live to bloom to the fullest under the nourishment of the lake light. Here, overlooking the over 100,000 square meters of lake view of the Yongding River, just a step away is the Garden World Commercial Street, embracing the simple warmth of life wholeheartedly, listening to the melodious echoes of life.

Opened at the end of 2018, the Grand Lake Garden World is a quite international commercial street, with a dazzling array of leisure restaurants such as Melody KTV, Xiaoxiang Mansion, Drunken South Asia, Hutaoli Music Restaurant, Chuanji Dao, Maya Teppanyaki, Costa Coffee, and Tang Corridor. The cuisine here will never repeat even if you try a different one every day.

Architecture is a story about time, a splendid garment sewn stitch by stitch, a fine wine carefully brewed through patient waiting. The core format of the Grand Lake, and also the cultural landmark of Langfang, is an art realm called 'Chao Theater'. Here, over 200 classic plays and stage works are performed in rotation each year. Popular classics like 'The Breakup Master', 'The Delivery Master', and 'The Scoundrel Angel' are non-stop great shows that leave a lasting impression.

As the only theater in the Langfang area that can be listed on Damai (a major ticket platform), it has already partnered with authorized productions from the Edinburgh Art Festival, with over 20 special performances each year. At the same time, Chao Theater also intersperses some folk art programs like Beijing's Tingyunxuan, regularly updating its repertoire. Peacock City owners regularly receive and are given free tickets, with many benefits and warmth.

After a decade of accumulation, rising in southern Beijing, craftsmanship and sentiment are the deepest dialogue between Peacock City Grand Lake and Gu'an. With a humble and gentle posture, it gently opens the hearts of urbanites, refining more unparalleled beauty. Behind these times of craftsmanship and sentiment, Peacock City Grand Lake tells the story of a brand's warmth and responsibility with a sincere heart.

Peacock City Grand Lake, a quality living space truly built with 'people' as the standard, from the meticulous exploration of homecoming rituals to the repeated refinement of interior spaces, solidly presents every living detail with care. The moment the real lake living scene unfolds before your eyes, a wonderful journey of lakeside living full of poetry and a beautiful future life officially begins. By the lake, settle down, live—a few ordinary words, a wonderful dream of returning home.
