About this place

An elegant cluster of white colonial-era buildings constructed in 1902, creating a quiet, romantic visual contrast against the muddy, churning Yangtze River. Now converted into a design center and cafe.

Drifter says

"One of the very few places in this city where sensory overload genuinely stops. Sit on the river-facing terrace with an espresso, feel the breeze off the water, and let the low rumble of passing river freighters serve as background music. Finding this kind of stillness in Chongqing is its own kind of luxury."
