A Journey Through Time and Taste: Located in the heart of Chiayi City, The Magnificent Ten Miles redefines the dining experience with its grandeur, cultural essence, and innovative spatial design. As the largest premium hot pot dining space in Southern Taiwan, the flagship restaurant delivers an unparalleled fusion of aesthetics, comfort, and historical storytelling.
Inspired by the Tang Dynasty, the design pays homage to Chinese heritage while aligning with contemporary dining trends. Guests enter through an elegant stone quartz archway and traditional wooden gates, greeted by symbolic fixtures like carved horse-hitching pillars and antique lanterns. A central fountain enveloped in mist sets the tone, reflecting serenity and opulence.
The dining hall unfolds with dynamic layers of textures and materials, such as marble, slate, and wood. Structural bamboo screens intertwine with beams, softening spatial lines while maintaining flexibility to accommodate various seating arrangements. Custom-designed tables seamlessly blend with a checkerboard ceiling, enriching the visual rhythm.
Walls feature deep-toned wooden textures juxtaposed with modern lighting, evoking warmth and sophistication. Inspired by ancient Chinese scholar rooms, decorative shelves and screens add cultural depth, accentuated by a soft, focused lighting scheme.
Attention to spatial flow resolves the challenges of the trapezoidal layout, ensuring functional circulation and seamless integration of gas pipelines for table-top hot pots. Flexible partitions and open-concept private dining areas enhance spatial balance while preserving intimacy.
A standout feature is the photo-friendly area where visitors don traditional court attire for a playful, immersive experience, drawing crowds and creating lasting memories. By harmonizing heritage with contemporary design, The Magnificent Ten Miles offers a multi-sensory journey through time. It is more than a dining space—it is a cultural revival, thoughtfully curated to engage sight, sound, and taste, while addressing practical needs with elegance.
