About Six Senses Qing Cheng Mountain
- At opening in 2015 it was the largest Six Senses resort in the world, with 113 keys across 62 hectares, a claim confirmed in the brand's own press materials at launch.
- The spa developed three proprietary Taoist treatment journeys, Jing (defensive restorative), Qi (meridian balance), and Shen (spirit restoration), incorporating ba guan cupping, acupuncture, tui na, and Chinese reflexology into protocols created specifically for this property.
- Habita Architects arranged the resort so guests arrive via a dense bamboo avenue leading to a massive antique gate; stepping through reveals a panorama of tiled rooftops that reads, deliberately, as a secret mountain village.
- The organic Farm2Fork restaurant was, according to brand materials, the first farm-to-table restaurant concept of its type at a luxury hotel in mainland China.
- The Kid's Club features a dinosaur bone dig, a nod to Sichuan province's status as one of the world's richest sources of sauropod dinosaur fossils.
