Vaastu tips for Under construction Hotels
- Shape of the plot – As far as possible opt for a rectangular or a square shaped plot. If that is not possible due to unavailability of land or because of any other technical reasons in such a scenario very effective non-destructive remedy can be applied on the plot to cut the excess area and make the plot symmetrical resulting in positive energy.
- Direction of the plot – South ,East & North are considered to be very auspicious for any hotel building especially the south direction because of a very special vibration that it produces.
- Underground water tank – North of east or East of north is an ideal place to construct an underground water tank & bore-well without intersecting the energy diagonal emanating from the North east corner at 45 degrees.
- Kitchen – The ideal location for the kitchen is in the south east with the stove and fire appliances placed in the east of south east quadrant.
- Staircase – The staircase will be either in the west or south quadrant & will also be constructed clockwise.
- Swimming pool – Water has magical properties and it can enhance the positivity in any plot provided it is situated in the right direction. The best place for a swimming pool would be in the north east or the north quadrant of the building.
- Sub-station – To balance the fire element in the plot from a vaastu perspective it is very imperative that a substation or a transformer is made in the south east quadrant if that is not possible then North west is also an alternative for its placement.
