"Located at the Thirteen Towers Viewing Platform in Meili Snow Mountain National Park, Diqing, Yunnan, the project sits adjacent to Wunongding Village in a setting shaped by intensive tourism development. Although the site faces the Meili Snow Mountain range, it is also defined by a constricted roadside edge, visual clutter, temporary structures, and the fragmented realities of ongoing construction around it."
"Rather than attempting to recreate an imagined version of “authentic Tibet,” the design responds to these conditions directly. Its aim is not to romanticize the site, but to establish a place of calm within an environment already saturated by spectacle."
The project is located at the Thirteen Towers Viewing Platform in Meili Snow Mountain National Park in Diqing, Yunnan, beside Wunongding Village. The site is shaped by intensive tourism development and a constricted roadside edge that produces visual clutter, temporary structures, and fragmented construction conditions. Although the location faces the Meili Snow Mountain range, the surrounding environment is dominated by spectacle and ongoing building activity. The design avoids romanticizing or recreating an imagined “authentic Tibet.” Instead, it responds directly to existing conditions to establish a place of calm within an already saturated setting. The project area is 2,500 m² and completion is in 2025.
