Jiangsu, Zhejiang, and Shanghai | Be a villager for a day in a fishing village on the coastline at 30° North latitude

Sitting in the courtyard chatting with friends in the early morning, I looked up and saw a sky full of stars…so incredibly healing!! I haven't seen so many stars in the city for a long time. I also had a free plant printmaking experience! Capturing the summer in the courtyard as an eternal moment was so much fun and made my photos look so vibrant! We went to a seafood restaurant recommended by our housekeeper, Mengmeng! The fishing season in Xiangshan has recently started, and the seafood was incredibly fresh and plump! There weren't many guests staying there. The lawn was perfect for the dogs to run around on. The hydrangeas were in full bloom this season, absolutely beautiful! Here's a photo with the dog~ Before leaving, I also tried plant printmaking, and I'm very satisfied with my work! Thank you to our housekeeper, Xiao Ye, for her thoughtful service. Every stay at Xipo feels like coming home; the housekeeper is already waiting at the door before you even arrive. Weipo's location selection is truly commendable; they always make the most of the local environment, and each location offers a delightful surprise. This time, Xipo Xiangshan is nestled in a century-old courtyard in a seaside fishing village. The 1950s-era blue tiles and white, weathered walls, the moon gate of the century-old house, the stone lions and flagstone paths in the courtyard—all have been well-preserved and cleverly integrated into the overall architectural design. The guesthouse coexists with nature, maintaining the relaxed resort feel of a seaside village. The guesthouse also offers a variety of family-friendly activities. You can participate in a DIY seashell painting workshop with your children, unleashing your creativity on colorful seashells; or take your children to the fruit and vegetable garden to experience the joy of picking fresh fruits and vegetables. It's a warm and fun-filled vacation destination. If you love the sea, a ten-minute walk will take you to the nearby beach. At high tide, you can experience net fishing; at low tide, you can collect snails and catch crabs. In the future, you can also experience fishing at sea. In the evening, you can enjoy the golden sunset together. The mottled white walls left from the 1950s and 60s still retain the slogans of that time. There are also cat mascots on the green tiles and stone lions in the courtyard.
