Gratitude is a philosophy of life and a great wisdom in living. "Records of the Three Kingdoms, Wu Zhi, Biography of Luo Tong": "On the day of the feast, everyone can enter separately, ask about dryness and wetness, add subtle intentions, induce and guide them to speak, observe their aspirations, and make them all feel grateful and indebted, with a desire to repay."
Gratitude has been a fine tradition of our Chinese nation since ancient times, and it is also a basic virtue of a righteous person. In fact, we need gratitude very much because our parents have nurtured us, teachers have educated us, leaders have recognized us, colleagues have assisted us, society has cared for us, the military has protected us, and our motherland has nurtured us! This is also why the Western holiday of Thanksgiving is becoming increasingly popular among our people.
Every year, Thanksgiving coincides with the most beautiful season in Beijing. If you want to celebrate with your family and not miss the charming scenery of the Great Wall, you are welcome to join us.
Event Features (1)
Heritage hotel at the foot of the Great Wall - Brickyard
Heritage hotel & spa at the Great Wall – Brickyard Retreat
This is the most beautiful rural heritage hotel in Beijing, not accepting non-reserved guests and also refusing visitor tours. The hotel is designed with the Great Wall and glazed tiles as themes, maintaining traditional architectural styles while using local materials such as stone, brick, tile, and wood, blending Baroque-style colored windows and loft-style high ceilings to create a unique living environment.
Michelle Obama has dined here, and the King of the Netherlands, the President of Israel, Jason Statham, Matt Damon, and others have also left their footprints here.
The Brickyard Hotel is part of the Mutianyu Small Garden created by Sa Yang and Tang Liang, providing job opportunities for locals and neighbors of the villa, and helping to sustain the local community. The concept of sustainability extends to the hotel’s site design, the food provided, and operational practices.
The food offered by the hotel and the menu items are all handmade from the source. The hotel grows many vegetables and fruits and sources about 80% of its ingredients from local suppliers. The coffee is specially roasted and sourced from Yunnan. The hotel composts and recycles organic materials and manages energy, water, and waste. It does not use bottled water in plastic containers, and even straws are made of paper. All accommodations are equipped with all-natural Shangri-La farm bath products and Kemi organic soap.
In addition, high-quality imported wines, cheeses, and olive oils are provided to give guests from China and over 100 other countries a pleasant dining experience.
For children living in modern cities, "tiles" are a fresh thing. High-rise buildings no longer use the once-glorious building materials, and we can only see them in alleys and a few places. However, the Brickyard Hotel preserves this historical memory for us. I believe that the activities arranged here will leave you and your children with the most beautiful memories!

As a high-end boutique hotel with many guests coming from afar, the net price of rooms on weekends and holidays at the Brickyard has always been high, and the dining costs are comparable to those of high-end Western restaurants in the city. Because of this event, we have communicated with the hotel early, so we have been given a very sincere price. This is a rare opportunity, so friends who want to participate should not miss it~
