Bella Magazine: Top Concrete Retreats in Taiwan, The Wandering Walls Recognized Among World's Best Architecture

Bella Magazine Feature | Top 10 Concrete Minimalist Retreats in Taiwan 2026
Bella Magazine is one of Taiwan's leading fashion and lifestyle media outlets. On May 14, 2026, the magazine published a special feature titled "Top 10 Concrete Retreats in Taiwan 2026: The Wandering Walls Recognized Among World's Best Architecture," curating a list of the most aesthetically striking fair-faced concrete accommodations across the country, with The Wandering Walls highly recommended among them.
The article introduces The Wandering Walls, designed by architect Grace Cheung of XRANGE, and highlights its distinction as the only architectural work in Taiwan selected for The ArchDaily Guide to Good Architecture, published by ArchDaily × gestalten. This international recognition has made The Wandering Walls not just a premier design retreat on the Hengchun Peninsula, but a true destination for global architecture and aesthetics enthusiasts visiting Pingtung.
With its flowing curved concrete walls and column-free flat slab structure, the spatial design responds organically to the surrounding acacia forest, the seasonal downhill winds, intense sunlight, and the breathtaking landscape of mountains and sea. Breaking away from the rigid, boxy framework typical of traditional concrete architecture, The Wandering Walls offers travelers more than just a place to stay—it is an invitation to inhabit a space that coexists harmoniously with nature.
