ON THE RISE

Growth puts Sichuan Province's capital
city on the map

There is an ancient Sichuanese saying that
Chengdu is a great place to retire. As the widely
acknowledged birthplace of tea culture and
recognized as a UNESCO city of gastronomy
for its peppercorn-laced cuisine, Chengdu
residents have long enjoyed a leisurely lifestyle
that includes frequent games of mahjong. And
its geographic situation in the center of China
makes it an important gateway to the more
sparsely populated lands in the west.
In recent years, Chengdu has also been
booming as an economic development hub.
More than half of the Fortune Global 500
companies have set up offices in the city, and
foreign investment reached nearly $10 billion
last year, according to the local statistics bureau.
Mathew Lui, partner with HBA in Hong
Kong, had his eye on the city since HBA
completed the Shangri-La Chengdu in 2007.

The firm more recently worked on the Swissotel,
which opened last year, and is putting the
finishing touches on a JW Marriott slated for
completion by the end of the year (as is the Tony
Chi-designed Grand Hyatt following a sevenyear incubation period). Lui says Chengdu is
exploding as a tourist destination for a number
of reasons: "Sichuan Province is not really close
to any special economic zone, so development
there has been slower and more organic.
The level of guests is what's [now] attracting
international operators to the city. Quality is

which also houses a tea
lounge.

respected there, and its citizens want to do
things well."
Yumei Wang of Los Angeles-based design
firm Atwater Inc., says Chengdu needs its share
of designers to cope with demand, so the firm
opened a studio there to fill that gap. "The pace
of new construction is much slower in Beijing
and Shanghai compared with Chengdu," she
points out. "We noticed the Chinese government
has been encouraging the development of
western China, and Chengdu, as a regional hub,
is no doubt on the rise."
