Where the Heavens meet Earth (by Rebecca Gabbai)
Chintao Gardens is a new historical development in Yunnan, South West China, and one of the most interesting investment properties in the China market at the moment.
The property is a traditional Chinese house located in an ecologically balanced setting in Tengchong, Yunnan Province.
Considered the top healthcare treatment district in China, the area boasts zero pollution levels, pure rivers with drinkable water, and a fantastic geography of 97 volcanoes around small villages.
Tengchong County is almost entirely surrounded by volcanoes, and located at the base of a mountain range on land built up by piles of ancient volcanic magma. More than 80 steam springs, hot springs and heat springs have been found in Tengchong, making it the second largest natural heat field in China. Whilst visiting the district you can also visit Yuanlong and Kui Pavilions.
The county is also the hoetown of the famous Chinese philosopher Ai Sipi, and houses the threefold cloud laffer and Taoist temple that hands half way up the neighbouring Yunfeng mountain. Rich in minerals such as jade and other precious stones, the area is also world famous for the purchase of Jade and tea, with over 500 shops that sell natural jade and tea. "Everything natural and beautiful is found here" says Arne, "and it is all right opposite my property- at my door."
Located 20 minutes away from Hump International Airport, direct flights connect the city to Shanghai. Beijing and Kunming, with future plans to connect with more international destinations, including Hong Kong. The area is fast becoming a "Number One Tourist Destination", says Arne. It is also creating quite a stir within Chinese circles, Arne explains that most of his clients are from Beijing and Shanghai, so the Asian market is the one he is for http://www.798district.com/chintao cusing on. All this talk of indescribable beauty, a pristine environment and luxury living, Arne makes me wonder what is keeping me in my seat. I will soon be visiting: www.798district.com/chintao.
