hot place 강현숙 기자의 ‘핫플투어’Good bye to fine dust~ I love plants! Free accommodation! A hotel dedicated to pet plants! A panorama of plants in a small space.Now, plants seem to be recognized as family members. As if doing to a dog or catThe term "pet plant" is also commonly used as more people grow, grow and interact with plants. During long business trips and trips, there was also a hotel that could take charge of their pet plant. This is "Shilla Patio," a gardening hotel located on the first floor of the Mia branch of Lotte Department Store. A petting plant hotel I've never heard of! I went to see it myself because I was curious about how it was organized. The Gardening Hotel Shilla Patio is run by clothing brand Shilla. Shilla is famous for clothes that use eco-friendly materials such as rayon and linen. I happened to see a space in a pet plant concept overseas and I started to benchmark it and open it. At first glance, there are about 20 kinds of plants in the hotel, including rubber trees, olive trees and Benjamin, that give off a cozy garden-like atmosphere. What's unique is that the number for hotel rooms such as room 101 and room 102 is written in front of the plant. The fee is free and available to anyone. If you want to take care of your companion plants, you can visit the hotel with your plants and get your room number assigned, and write down your name, contact number, check-in and check-out dates, and what you need to be careful about when storing your companion plants on a notepad given by the hotel. After check-in, plants are managed by receiving water and nutrients in a space equipped with natural lighting bulbs. You can keep it for up to a month, and you can prune it or divide it. "I thought it was a flower garden, so I visited it," said Lee, who manages pets.be amazed at the name of a petting hotel. We hope that it will become a garden in the city where people and plants can rest together, beyond the space for managing companion plants. On the day of the reporter's visit, a small plant pot left by a man in his 50s was staying at the hotel. There aren't many users yet, but it's expected to increase gradually as it draws people's attention. You can have a healing time with tea (left). The number placed in front of the plant means the room lake where the plant is staying.Right next to the companion plant hotel is a cafe decorated with the theme of "Healing Space with Plants" and a "Shilla" clothing store. The cafe sells coffee menus as well as drinks made from natural ingredients such as handmade fruit tea, herbal tea and fruit juice. With several tables in place, it is perfect for drinking tea and taking a rest while feeling the fresh air that plants offer. When I visited, I felt sorry because the size was a bit smaller than I had expected. However, the fact that free pet food can be taken care of came as a charm. It was fun to have healing time talking about plants without leaving them in charge. Photo by 홍태식 Design by 이지은 excerpt from여성동아 2020년 3월 675호https://woman.donga.com/3/all/12/1994285/1
