A hidden paradise in Ciqikou! Who knew the mountain city could have such poetic courtyards

🌟Highlights: Chongqing’s magic lies in its monorail passing through buildings and the glowing Hongya Cave, but don’t forget—it also hides a gentle charm of “great seclusion within the city.” This time we discovered Yanyin · Chongqing Courtyard in Ciqikou Ancient Town, blending the lively atmosphere of eastern Sichuan stilt houses with the elegance of Chinese courtyards into a dreamlike escape👇 🏮 When stilt houses meet Chinese courtyards: every step tells a story The hotel is tucked deep in the alleys of Ciqikou. As soon as you open the wooden door, you’re greeted by gray bricks, black tiles, flying eaves, and flowing water rockeries—the three-dimensional structure of eastern Sichuan stilt houses combined with the symmetrical aesthetics of Chinese courtyards is simply stunning! The private courtyard design perfectly respects privacy. Sitting in the courtyard sipping tea and listening to the wind, the bustling ancient town outside feels like a parallel world, yet you can step into the lively scene anytime~ 🛏️ New Chinese-style rooms: elegance with a “lie-flat” surprise The rooms feature a fresh and simple new Chinese style, with wooden furniture and ink paintings, and even the lighting feels warm like a gentle filter~ The delightful details include: ✅ Free minibar with drinks available anytime 🥤 ✅ Applles toiletries with a sophisticated fragrance ✅ Highly recommended: private hot spring rooms! The soaking pool is sprinkled with flower petals, accompanied by a floating afternoon tea (desserts + fruit platter floating on water) 🍉 Soaking while enjoying the courtyard view—that’s the true ritual of a vacation~ 👶 Families with kids can directly book the “Sleep with Deer” room type and family rooms! Full of cartoon elements and exclusive children’s amenities, kids will have so much fun they won’t want to leave~ 📸 Fun from morning till night: this place is a photo-ready script • In the morning, wear a hotel-provided Hanfu outfit and makeup (free rental + makeup service!), twirling in the courtyard corridors and by wooden windows. Light filters through carved window frames onto the skirt, making every shot a beautiful ancient-style photo; • In the afternoon, relax with indoor golf or board games, or just lounge on the sofa reading and sipping tea, watching sunlight pour through the skylight onto the floor—time slows down like it’s filtered; • At night, dive into the hotel’s exquisite restaurant. Order fresh Sichuan home-style and creative dishes with your eyes closed. The private rooms are perfect for small gatherings with friends. Lanterns light up the courtyard outside, and dining here immerses you in the mountain city’s nighttime stories~ 🌿 A philosophy of seclusion hidden in the bustling city Outside Ciqikou is the bustling ancient town street. Step through the bluestone path into the courtyard, and it instantly quiets down. Open the window to see the flying eaves of stilt houses, and a 5-minute walk takes you to the Jialing River beach—immerse yourself in Chongqing’s lively magic, yet retreat anytime to the courtyard to enjoy a private paradise.
