PART 01 Angsana, Embrace Relaxation and Comfort Endowed by Nature

As a brand under Banyan Tree Group, Angsana inherits the brand spirit of "Live in the Moment", awakening people’s attention and respect for every instant of life. On every journey of exploration, Angsana integrates humans perfectly with local vibes — whether rediscovering one’s own culture, experiencing exotic customs, or simply finding a place that feels like home.

Angsana Chengdu Wenjiang is located in Shou’an Nursery Base of Wenjiang District, facing Chenjia Mast — a well-preserved comprehensive ancient courtyard complex of the Qing Dynasty. Boasting superior natural surroundings, the hotel is embraced by flower belts and forests alongside North Forest Greenway, adjacent to Jiang’an River, making walking and cycling ideal leisure choices. Rooted in local natural and cultural heritage, the design complies with the site, presenting simplicity, authenticity and harmonious integration with nature.

PART 03 Interpreting West Sichuan Courtyard · Recreating Courtyard Life in Regulated Space

Courtyard is an important carrier of daily life. Inheriting the spatial layout of traditional West Sichuan courtyard from Chenjia Mast, Angsana adopts a courtyard-centered diffusion layout controlled by central axis.

The entrance public area is designed with two main courtyards. The first courtyard forms natural framed scenery through architectural corridors, with three clustered hackberry trees as the narrative keynote of the site. Fully customized ground paving presents the purest spatial temperament. The second courtyard plants nine crape myrtles in array, matched with West Sichuan-style soft furnishings to create a folk-style forest negotiation space.

The guest room area forms an inward cohesive living courtyard. Extracting Shu Brocade colors and combining local plants, it creates themed courtyard spaces, evoking a strong sense of belonging and memory for families.
