Not in Suzhou, but in Xi'an!

Nestled at the foot of Zhongnan Mountain near Xi'an, this Chinese courtyard offers a tranquil retreat where you can enjoy a leisurely half-day escape from the hustle and bustle of life. Spending summer in such a courtyard for a vacation is incredibly chill. Stay | Serene Courtyard This Chinese-style courtyard features gray bricks and tiles, with lush greenery creating dappled shadows that evoke a peaceful and serene atmosphere. Every corner exudes a classical charm. Dine | Tea and Breeze Set up a tea table in the courtyard's Moonlight Pavilion, accompanied by seasonal tea snacks. Let the mountain breeze gently caress you as the tea smoke curls, making time feel soft and gentle. Alternatively, enjoy tea and discussions in the Chinese-style tea room, experiencing inner peace and tranquility. 🛁 Rooms | Private Front and Back Courtyards The 14 guest rooms are hidden amidst the courtyard's lush greenery, each offering a unique view. Twin rooms feature bathtubs by the window, allowing you to soak while gazing at the swaying bamboo shadows. With linen bed canopies, wooden aromatherapy, and elegant Chinese-style decor, the interiors are imbued with Oriental charm. Explore | Water Fun and Lotus Viewing Just 5 minutes away is the Fangruo Rice Field Camping Town, where you can row a boat 🚣 or fish on a misty lake, sit barefoot by a babbling stream to cool off while eating watermelon, or set up a tea table by the lotus pond to enjoy the blooms, dine, and sip tea. In July, the lotus flowers will be in full bloom—don't forget to bring a dress for photos! Fangruo Huachao 🚘 Drive directly to Chang'an Tang Village.
