Why our "GZ Home" may be for you!

Something special is our "1a REAL China Access" not only for its location and its environment, but also for its furnishings and equipment, which in their simplicity and their "being-rooted-to-the-soil" reflect our personal life-style. So you will not so much find in our place this often "overdone" and "over-representative" "modern Chinese style", but rather traditional Chinese elements, like a room divider shelf, a no-metal bamboo kitchen chest, and some original "classic" 4 season paintings. Of course also some "modern western" stuff, up to a big whiteboard, collecting many of our magnetic traveling souvenirs, and a big painted Lichtenstein copy, to bring to us the awareness of a bright (Chinese) sunset and of some terrible fighting on top of it, somewhere in the sky ...

At the same time, we do not want to miss comfort and the amenities of today's civilization too much: Our (following Chinese tradition) too small bathroom is extended by a shower\ steambath\ whirlpool cabin on our balcony, adjacent to our living room, which at the same time blocks the view from\ to our neighboring "village", and makes some "starlight strings" being sufficient between living room and balcony, instead of a traditional curtain. This way, our "GZ Home" does neither follow fully the standards of a Chinese home nor of a "0-8-15" apartment, but is based rather on a combination of some basic  Chinese elements with "modern" up to "world-wide" add-ons.
