Marn
Having inspiration from the festive snacks of traditional Tainan culture (an old city in Taiwan full with cultural heritage), by transforming them into a set of hotel amenities, these series of festive snacks always known to the local as "Marn", means fulfillment in Chinese culture; turtle-shaped rice cake as hand soap and soap dish, mung bean cake as toiletries, tang yuan sweet dumpling as hand cream and steamed bun & Tainan brown sugar bun cake as tea set. Tainan culture heritage could be widespread to the world as the hotel is a nice platform to promote local culture.
