Staying at the healing B&B Powushi in Shaxi Ancient Town feels like time has slowed down

Shaxi Ancient Town, a forgotten corner by time, holds so many surprises 🎉 In the heart of Shaxi Ancient Town, opening the window reveals the tiled roofs of Bai ethnic houses and the distant Cangshan Mountain, like an ink painting 🎨 And the courtyard of this B&B is absolutely my aesthetic! The minimalist design of wood + white walls, paired with greenery and flowing water, makes every shot Instagram-worthy. Sitting under the tree in the afternoon, sipping tea and reading, listening to the chime of wind bells—it’s pure relaxation~ 🛏️ Our "Mountain View Room" had floor-to-ceiling windows on both sides, with sunlight pouring in—super soothing! The bedding and toiletries were also top-notch. The value for money is unbeatable. You can take the hotel shuttle 🚗 up and down the mountain, passing vast rice fields 🌾 and streams along the way—the scenery is breathtaking. The days here felt like stolen slow time. No rush, no packed itineraries 🧳—just wandering the alleys and sipping coffee. Powushi is truly perfect for those who just want to unwind—who else gets it? 💡 Tips: ✔️ Book at least 1 month in advance during peak season ✔️ Ideal for those who love tranquility and appreciate design ✔️ Shaxi has big temperature swings—bring a jacket!
