Cosplaying as Bai Xiuzhu at the century-old hotel, every shot looks like a Republic of China-era pictorial

Who was it that slammed the table at the styling studio shouting, "Give me the Bai Xiuzhu look! The kind that’s so haughty it could infuriate Leng Qingqiu!" Oh, that was me 🙋 ...Hahaha, this fairy sister’s styling is truly stunning on anyone! The skills of the makeup and styling artists are absolutely unmatched! Paired with the retro backdrop of the Oriental Hotel, the photo success rate instantly maxes out. 📸 Photo spots and route here: ~ The spiral staircase to the right of the hotel lobby ~ The café on the first floor, with a gramophone at the very back ~ The Celebrity Garden out the café’s back door, featuring a floral arch further in ~ The vintage items in Lu Xun’s room—ps, the balcony shots are breathtaking ~ The colorful stained-glass windows along the corridors and staircases 💡 Little tips: • Try visiting on a weekday afternoon for softer light and fewer crowds, so you can have the scenes to yourself! • The styling studio provides props like umbrellas and fans—don’t forget to use them for more interactive shots. • The Oriental Hotel itself is a century-old building, and the café offers a cozy spot to shoot while enjoying snacks. Republic of China-era enthusiasts in Beijing should definitely go for it—spend half a day as the leading lady of a retro drama, and watch your social media likes explode 💥
