Celebrations & events at Amandayan
Host the perfect event
There are few places as beautiful, serene and auspicious as Amandayan to mark a special occasion. Set atop Lion Hill above the winding lanes and canals of Lijiang’s charming Unesco-protected Old Town, this romantic retreat comprises gracious Nakhi-inspired courtyard dwellings and elegant pavilions set within 1.6 hectares (4 acres) of scenic, mountain-ringed gardens.
Impossibly photogenic, with an almost 360-degree backdrop of snow-capped peaks against the bluest of skies, Amandayan offers venues both indoors and out that capture the imagination and reflect the soul of this ancient “Land of Eternal Spring”. With Jade Dragon Snow Mountain a regal witness, Amandayan ensures that every ceremony, blessing, reception and celebratory meal is unique and utterly memorable for both you and your guests.
Weddings
Celebrated for its natural beauty and its cultural heritage for centuries, Lijiang makes a fitting setting for the most meaningful and poetic of destination weddings. To tie the knot in Amandayan’s embrace, literally on a hilltop at the heart of this enduringly romantic city, is to say ‘I do’ in a place that symbolises longevity in every way. Exchange your vows on the Tea House Terrace overlooking the ancient town, beside the Aman Spa’s tranquil swimming pool or in a host of other venues – indoors or out. Then celebrate with a reception – as intimate or lavish as you desire – within Amandayan’s beautiful pavilions or outdoors beneath the vast Himalayan heavens.
Celebrations
Home to a distinctive array of dining venues with both atmospheric indoor and majestic outdoor settings, Amandayan can cater to events of all sizes. Whether your event calls for an intimate brunch, an alfresco courtyard lunch or a hilltop banquet for 100 guests under the stars, Amandayan’s expert team will ensure that every detail – from cuisine and décor to music and entertainment – exceeds expectations. In addition, a bespoke itinerary of activities and experiences promises a lifetime of memories for both you and your guests.

Delicate lanterns and intricate wooden screens add an air of timeless romance, while views gaze outward over the rooftops of Lijiang to the mountains on the horizon.
Man Yi Xuan Restaurant (Indoor)
Amandayan’s serene Chinese restaurant is aptly known as Man Yi Xuan, meaning ‘lingering peace’. Seating up to 88 guests, it boasts views of Jade Dragon Snow Mountain from almost every angle, as well as four private dining rooms. Serving a mix of Yunnan and Western-style cuisines, the focus is on dishes showcasing the wealth of seasonal ingredients sourced from the landscapes framed by the restaurant’s wood-lined windows.
Outdoor Terrace
A magnificent setting for outdoor cocktail parties of up to 200 guests standing or 100 seated guests for celebratory dinners beneath the stars, Amandayan’s expansive main terrace is surrounded by nature with endless mountain views. It enjoys a secluded and consummately private setting on the property, making it an ideal space for dancing the night away.
Tea House (Indoor)
Set over two levels with sublime views of Old Town and the mountains beyond, the Tea House offers indoor dining for intimate gatherings of up to 12 guests, as well as a spectacular outdoor terrace. Delicate dim sum and traditional Chinese and Western tea sets with savouries, cakes and pastries are usually served, but as with every Aman venue – menus are entirely personalised to suit both event and guest requirements.
Tea House Terrace (Outdoor)
An extension of the Tea House’s lofty indoor dining area, the outdoor terrace is the perfect place from which to admire the dramatic views that surround and to make the most of the region’s temperate weather. The Tea House Terrace seats up to 32 guests – perfect for outdoor afternoon tea or early evening cocktail celebrations.

The two venues can be combined to cater for a total of 70 individuals for larger events.
