Guangdong Getaway | Escape to a Fairytale Forest with Your BFF

| Escape to a fairytale forest with your BFF. Hey, besties! After a long week in Guangzhou, I really needed a soul-soothing escape. 😭 Last week, my bestie and I drove two hours to Nankun Mountain and discovered a magical resort! ‼️ Surrounded by lush greenery, even our phones seemed to enter a zen-like state. 📶 This city girl officially declares: This is how weekends should be spent in Guangdong! 🚗📍 Cuilan Valley Eco-Resort, Nankun Mountain (follow navigation) Maybe it's just me, but the air here feels sweet. 😂 With 93% forest coverage and over 80,000 negative ions/cm³, it's no wonder. Every breath feels like a spa treatment for your lungs. 💆 While strolling along the nature trail, a fluffy squirrel darted out! 🐿️ We chased after it for photos and nearly tripped, my friend's scream startling all the birds in the forest (lol🤣). Remember to wear light colors for photos to capture that perfect fairytale forest vibe. As a hotel themed around orchids in South China, 🏨 my inner orchid enthusiast was ecstatic! ‼ With over 500 varieties, it felt like stepping into a royal garden. 👑 The hotel even has a ton of hanfu costumes you can borrow for free. 🤣 We dressed up like ancient drama heroines and couldn't stop taking photos among the orchids. 📸️ Over ten unique villas 🏡 are nestled among the trees, creating a tranquil, secluded escape. 👉 Koi-themed landscape room: The balcony has a sun lounger where you can watch the mesmerizing dance of koi and light in the pond! 👉 Two-bedroom suite with flexible partition: Features a king-size bed and a twin room, offering a customizable living experience. And each room type has a private hot spring pool. ♨️ Soaking in the pool at night, gazing at the stars ✨, the water at a perfect 50°C, with a face mask and a cold drink—this is how a girls' getaway should be! The infinity pool at 600 meters above sea level is also amazing! ‼️ Floating on the edge feels like drifting among the clouds. ☁️ We woke up early to catch the morning mist and captured some stunning photos. 🏡 Some random thoughts from my mountain retreat: ✅ Waking up to birdsong every day, breakfast must-haves: mountain tofu pudding + Hakka mochi ✅ Discovered a hidden gem: Feeding the koi with the provided food brings extra good luck. 💥 ✅ Just a 15-minute drive to Chuanlong Waterfall, where the cool mist is so refreshing. 💦 💡 Tips for a girls' trip: 1️⃣ Bring mosquito repellent and a light jacket, as the temperature can fluctuate in the mountains. 2️⃣ The hotel has a children's playground, perfect for families with kids. 👶 3️⃣ Book now and get a free hanfu experience! 4️⃣ Don't forget to buy Longmen rice cakes and honey on your way back. The local aunties say it'll keep you sweet all year round. 🍯 This spontaneous trip has left me wanting more! My bestie is already planning a second visit. 😍 Grab your besties and escape to the forest for a magical weekend getaway!
